Did you only notice this after adding finasteride?

yes, well my hair did feel better with spiro and E, and the body hair growing less, but with Finasteride, it's like woooaaaa! really different. And I feel it's due to Finasteride since I had stopped taking it for 10 days, and it came back as I started again on a lower dose. And the body hair stopping its growth... and face hair too? that would be incredible, hmmmm...

Had you taken alone finasteride and nothing else, would this effect have occurred?

maybe, who knows.
maybe not, maybe it's mostly due to my testo gradually going down and my E going up, but I really feel it's Finasteride since it happens at the same time you know...

maybe I always had too much of these neurosteroids flowing through my brain and lowering them has no effect, how to know? (we don't check these). I clearly feel at least T had bad effects on my mood all my life, maybe other stuff too.

Everyone is different and I feel more and more my genetics (therefore my brain and body) is really twisted. Well for sure it is since I have cluster headaches which is pretty extreme, yea like the worst nightmare... so I'm used to scanning every tiny reaction of my brain and body in order to try to avoid being hit... and I feel nothing but good in my brain with HRT, I really felt my brain changing (on the happy side) with spiro and Estradot patches and I felt no change in that so far with Finasteride. So far anyways.

my reaction to Finasteride seems positive, but maybe my whole genetic is weird and I really don't think my case is a good one to compare to.

I was never very hairy but still...
My face hair is stopping its growth. I shaved this morning, hadn't done it in 72 hours and it looked like a 24h beard. I pull my mustache hairs and the regrowth there is fading, and all my face hair are much thinner than they were just two weeks ago still, and I actually realized all my hair pattern is now feminine, didn't shave my legs for almost three weeks and I have almost nothing, my arms... hands... My doctor has more hair on her arm than me, I noticed when she took my pressure last time...

Day by day, the shadow of small hair and growing hair is fading under my nose, it looks like I'm not going to need any hair removal at all if it keeps fading.  :o ???
wow, I really didn't expect that. I really can't afford hair removal...

has something like this been heard before? I'm uhhh... not young, my children are 20...

So far for me, Finasteride did that, all my hair clearly changed following my return on it on March 26

Still good otherwise, I feel no depression symptoms, nothing changed in my brain (except 4 or 5 days I was a little grumpy, first week, but very little (compared to how I was before my HRT).

What I don't know (yet) is if I quit Finasteride, hairs will return, but they had after my 1st 12 days on it.
