    Baldie's story (pics included)

    I'd like to point out Astrology is crap, and that genetics are not determined by the month in which you're born. Stick to the science/remedies, such as the big 3, but I think if you try to give people a false hope because they're Aries or whatever, you're doing a disservice to the community.

    It looks like a big difference dude; I'd change the topic. Propecia helps you keep hair with little regrowth. As I understand it, minoxidil helps regrow hair. It certainly can't hurt to combine the two and add nizoral.

    How do I Cut Proscar? (pics included)

    I got a prescription for Proscar, but my Doctor only gave me 6 pills with a sig of "take 1/5 daily", for a total of 30 days' worth, with a refill of 5. That is a total of 6 months worth of finasteride. In any case, it's much much cheaper. At a pharmacy I trust (where I work), 6 pills is 20 bucks. So...

    When should I expect to see results, either a shed or growth? I'd rather keep taking the generic that I'm taking if it will work, if for nothing else than to assure would-be customers of rx-mex. In other words, when should I assume that I got shafted. What's a good place to get the Dr...

    Crapola's Story

    If you take them on a computer, you probably have JPEG's. If you take them on a camera phone, just email them to yourself and you'll have the JPEG's. Then just use a free image hosting service like ImageShack. ImageShack even provides you with auto thumbnails and the correct forum syntax to...

    What % nizoral do I need? Aren't there different minoxidil since it's OTC now? Is there ones that are cheaper/better than Rogaine? Does minoxidil really do any good if you only do it once a day? If you regain hair with minoxidil and you maintain with finasteride, why do you need to do minoxidil forever?

    Yeah, I think I'll do it. I really wish I hadn't waited so long. My barber told me around when I turned 21 "wow, you look like you're thinning on top". I wish I hadn't waited so long to do something about it. If you're here and someone told you you're thinning, go to your doctor NOW and ask...

    These were taken on 2/11/2003, about 2 years ago BEFORE starting to really thin at all. That is a reference for the "buzz" look you guys suggest. I really changed it because of women saying "I prefer longer hair", including my mom, who insisted I looked like a "skinhead". Back then, I wore...

    HltalkCB's Story (includes pics)

    Well, I'm glad I found this site, and that there are other people my age losing their hair, and that I'm not the only one. I just turned 22, but my hair started thinning right about when I turned 21. No one else in my family has had hair that started thinning or balding anywhere near my age...
