Finestride induced hairloss? Is it normal?

General

I am a student who has been facing hair fall since the age of 17-18. I know it’s male pattern hair loss because my father also has it. To prevent it, I started using Finasteride from the end of February — 1 mg pill daily.

But for the past half month, the hair fall has increased a lot, the crown area has also become visible, and my hair strands are thinner. I’m feeling scared now.
Is this normal — could it be Finasteride-induced hair loss? Or this is due to stress

Also, should I start taking vitamins and Minoxidil?

it’s common to see increased shedding when you start fin, which is usually temporary as hair enters the growth phase. consider adding min to your routine to help regrow and thicken hair, as it’s the fertilizer. check out the The Beginner’s Guide for more info. vitamins might not help unless you have a deficiency. hang in there, treatments can take time.
