Read the post below and some of the related ones I've made. You may be experiencing something like a telogen effluvium. Stress to the body can do this. Certainly being on a cycle is a stress, as is coming off a cycle.
Doubt that the Proscar is the culprit. Doubt male pattern baldness, too, if the loss is that acute.
See a dermatologist, perhaps a scalp biopsy (very simple, little punch biopsy with local anesthesia) can determine the cause. I'd do it if it were me!
Good luck.

don't worry, you can save your hair!!! Proscar is the answer. It has recently been approved for hair loss prevention. The cheapest way is to go to your Dr. and tell him your hair is falling out. Then suggest Proscar. When he writes the script. go and get it filled. Then for the first 3 days take the full tab, then after break the tabs in to four and you will take only 1/4 of the tab/ day. This is equal to the little sister propica, which contains 1 mg / tab. However if this visit to the Dr. does not work there is a little unadvertised web site that sells research chemicals and they may help you out. the site is carvagen.com I have used them and have been happy with the results.

OK, here goes.
Normally, 90% of the hair follicles are in the anagen (growth) phase. The other 10% or so are in the telogen (resting) phase. In humans, this is normally an asynchronous cycle of "shedding", so we don't lose it all at once.
Telogen effluvium describes a synchronous movement of large numbers of hairs into the telogen phase. Hence, a noticeable acute loss of hair. Many different stressors can cause this (and, as I've posted recently and repeatedly, some of those stressors are common with AAS use!)
It can occur during or after pregnancy (not you), after trauma or surgery, with fevers (test flu?), various drugs (AAS?), dieting (cycles?), and other stresses to the body. It is usually reversible over time. Anagen (growth) phase lasts 2 to 5 years. Telogen (resting) phase lasts about 3 months. Take heart, my fine young bro! It may well come back.
What the other guy said about finasteride, well, yeah, duh, but this doesn't sound like androgenetic alopecia. And to all you men with hair loss, on OR off cycle: intermittent finasteride is NOT going to do you any long-term good! If you need it, take it! In a couple of years we'll have something better with fewer sides (maybe dutasteride, maybe not, or something else completely different), and you can switch to that. Finasteride is not a lifetime sentence.
Back on topic, a scalp biopsy can diagnose TE. It's not a big deal.

Hair Loss

Proscar is good for testosterone related hair loss, but does nothing for nandrolone. Some experts even think that proscar will make your hair fall out faster while on nandrolone. IMO, the best thing to use with anabolics is topical spironolactone.

We've certainly covered THIS one enough times over the past couple of days! How many tries before we can dispell this probable myth? It's not based on any evidence and it isn't logical. See MULTIPLE posts by me ;-)

some of you guys aren't understanding that i did not take the proscar and durabolin at the same time, i started the prosvcar after the durabolin use
