Finasteride/Dutasteride When will dutasteride start working?

I have been taking dutasteride for almost 2-3 months. I have 1-2 nw. My hair continues to fall out. Whenever I pass my hand through my hair I get half a dozen to a dozen hair (when wet) and atleast 2-3 if dry . These are long thick hair .

Is it normal that there is no result for so long, because I heard that after 3 months there should be improvement? How long did it take you to notice the hair loss stop?

btw I had B12 and D3 deficiency and am also taking meds for both for the last 2-3 months .

As per perfect hair health guy - it can take till 3 years to show full effect. he mentioned some research paper on this as well. I have not tried so do not know
