Back to Shedding at 7 Months: Normal or Not?

I’ve been using topical finasteride and minoxidil for about 7 months now. During the first 3 months, I experienced quite a bit of shedding, but by the 4th month, things started to stabilize and the shedding returned to a more normal level. However, around the 7-month mark, I started shedding again. I’ve heard that a second shedding phase can be normal, but I’m wondering how long it usually lasts. I understand it can vary from person to person, but I really hope it doesn’t last as long as the first one, which went on for about 3 months.

It’s normal to experience a second shedding phase around 7 months with min and fin, but it usually doesn’t last as long as the first one. Keep an eye on how things progress, and remember, these treatments take time. Consistency is key.
