5 / 109 resultscommunity Most studies seem to say the vast majority of increase in hair count occurs in the first 12 weeks, why does everyone say you need to wait years to know whether fin/dut are working?
Finasteride and dutasteride can show initial hair count increases within 12 weeks, but visible improvements often take longer, with many users reporting noticeable changes after a year or more. While early results may be seen under a microscope, significant cosmetic improvements typically require more time for hair to thicken and become visibly denser.
