finasteride cause scalp pimples?

I just started it YESTERDAY... YIKES! But is your hair growing yet? AFter 3 months or so, it should be in your system now, and maybe your hair will start sprouting soon??? Keep me posted! I'll let you know if I get any pimples. Are they visible to others? Have you had any other side effects? How do you feel so far?

PS: what is your dosage if you don't mind me asking? Mine is 1/2 tab of 5mg daily... so 2.5mg daily.

finasteride cause scalp pimples?

Hi,
I dont have any noticeble regrowth so far, but my individual hair feel thicker and the scalp and hair are not as oily before.

I dont have any side effects so far beside having scalp pimples. i had most scalp pimples on the first 1 1/2 month. but now i have only few of them.

i am just curious if any of you have scalp pimples problem like me, I will assume the finasteride pills should help with acnes, instead i had so many pimple on scalp. i am glad they are almost gone now....i am just waiting to see if i can have some regrowth.

my doseage is 2.5 mg daily, i drank lot of soymilk ( it contains lot of plant hormone , and some chinese herb to balance my hormone problem)

thanks

reply:

i do have some occasional pimples on the scalp. I have been on 0.5mg propecia for 4 months with some results. However, my doctor has decided to stop prescriping propecia to me b/c he said it is not standard medical practice and is contraindicated in women. I would like to know which dr you go to and how you convinced your dr to prescibe finasteride to you?

thanks
