    How to get over vanity as a weakness

    I hate that vanity is a weakness for me. I dont suffer from it because of propecia, but I know if not for propecia I would have been suffering, and would have had huge difficulty in overcoming this weakness. The thing is.....I can see the power that having hair gives me. I have diffuse loss...

    My job interviews over the years.

    Wow--hair loss is tough man. I remember having all those feelings at age 23 when I felt like I was doomed because of hair loss. The line about music struck a chord with me, as I remember having that same feeling in my early 20's (not getting excited about music). I've been fortunate that...

    My hairloss plan for the next 15 years.....

    Your body may not become resistant to propecia. I have been on propecia for 6 years, and as far as I can tell, have maintained what I started with. Not saying eventually my hair won't decline further, but in 6 years, so far so good. I was 23 when I started, and am 29 now.

    6 Month Results Thus Far

    Lasercomb may not be a joke. I've only been using it for 2-3 weeks, but I have noticed that my hair seems to appear thicker. The visual thickness increase is probably equivalent to growing a certain number of hairs back. Anyway, for the original poster, I would agree with everyone else on...

    fine hair, can I make it thicker

    I use Avacor Hair Thickening Serum and Loreal Thickening Hair Gel--these two really helped over normal hair gels. Also, I started using Lasercomb two weeks ago, and I could tell this past weekend that my hair looked thicker--not more hair--just that my existing hair looked thicker. However, I...

    Obsession with hair loss

    Does anyone else experience this? Six years ago, at the age of 23, I was obsessed. Then I started propecia, and basically forgot about hairloss. Now at 29, and unmarried, my obsession has come back. Maybe cause Im single, maybe cause Im in college again (grad school), or maybe cause I...

    Minoxidil amount question

    Thanks for the replies folks. Gardner, I agree with what you say. I will cut it to 2 ml, and not worry about covering every centimeter of my scalp.

    Minoxidil amount question

    A week ago I started using minoxidil once per night. I've been using about 3 ml per application to cover my whole scalp (I am a diffuse thinner). Is this too much minoxidil? Also, I sometimes apply minoxidil to the sides of my head, on the border between the thin top and the thick sides of my...

    two bad things this weekend....

    Well, hopefully it has nothing to do with testicular cancer, but sounds like you should have it checked out. Check out this blurb on testicular cancer. Hopefully its not cancer at all--im just saying to get it checked out. Testicular cancer usually shows no early symptoms. It is suspected...

    Any diffuse thinners out there found a regimen that works?

    Ive been using Propecia for almost 6 years and it has maintained. I've never used topicals cause I hate putting that stuff all over my head twice a day. Makes my hair greasy and thinned out, and its a bit harder to do with diffuse thinning. In any case, I've just added Lasercomb and minoxidil 1x...

    propecia and sperm count

    I think I read on Dr Lee's website to lay off the Propecia for 2 weeks before trying to have procreative sex. His site is minoxidil.com. Maybe ask a doctor or pharmacist about this as well.

    Necessary to use Minoxidil SPECIFICALLY in the morn & ev

    8 hours Dr. Lee on his website says to leave 8 hours between applications. Not sure if an hour here or there makes a difference. If you buy minoxidil from Lee, you could do an online consultation with him and ask him that question.

    20 years old and nervous to start Propecia

    I started finasteride when I was 23. Am 29 now and have maintained what I started with. I had a lot of the same apprehension that you have now, but in retrospect I wish I started even just a few months sooner--cause I would have even more hair. I havent had any sides, although possibly less semen...
