I think that's normal. You shed first, sometimes several sheds before it starts working. I would say give it at least 6-12 months before you go off of it.

I am 28 and the hair line is going fast. I am posting pictures of the front and right sides. The left side is pretty much the same, as the right. 1. Could you guy please help me decide if I am Norwood 2 or 3, or gulp worse? 2. Should I start Propecia right away? 3. What about Minoxidil...

I don't get it... why is it that a heterosexual male can't talk about other men's attractiveness, like we don't notice it. Obviously, most guys here care about their outward appearance and do appreciate male beauty - so get over it. Girls constantly talk about how pretty other women are, and...

Heat is very bad for minoxidl. It destabilizes the molecule and turns into something that is no longer effective because it is NOT minoxidl. I would say that as long as your minoxidl was not exposed to heat and/or strong sunlight then it should be good for a while. Be very careful with...

Just another tip. Try buying Fincar or Proscar next time around. You cut the tablets into quarters and then you have a 1.25mg dose of finasteride. Propecia and the India-made Finpecia are just 1mg doses of finesteride. You'll end up saving a bundle. You can get a pill cutter from the chemist.

Update: My doctor has recommended that I stop taking finesteride, as she believes that hair loss is not such a big deal. I disagree, and I will try and wait this out.

did you read my post on sexual side effects of propecia?

I buy my Nizoral 1% at drugstore.com for $14 for 7 fluid. ounces (207ml). This seems to be a good price compared to pharmacies. If you put together an order of over $49, you get free shipping. By the way, you only need to use Nizoral shampoo once or twice a week, so a bottle lasts a long...

No thoughts. But, I am considering minoxidil once a day. Styling is just a pain with minoxidil in the picture. I am unsure whether it will go well.

Every company makes produces a sprayer with a different metered dosage. A spray of brand X is not necessarily the same amount as a spray of brand Y. My tip: Call the toll free number on the side of the bottle and explain the situation. Either they can tell you straight out or fax/send you...

Please let me know about the Lasercomb results. I want to know if it really works before I pay the big bucks.

I have a NW1-NW2 and I have been using Minoxidil for only 1 month. I am definately noticing little some regrowth in the front. But, only tiny, tiny little hairs. However, as it is so early in the treatment, I am not sure if this is regrowth or miniturized hairs that have already fallen victim...

I doubt that it is from the hair loss itself. I was my horny self for the first up until about a month ago. At that point, I had already been taking Propecia for 6 weeks. My hairloss was never so accute. I am the only one that really nocticed. My doctor said that I am at the very early...

I think that is a potential side effect. See the doctor that prescribed the it right away. You should have this monitored.

I have been taking Finesteride 1.25mg daily now for 2 months. During the first 6 weeks or so, I noticed absolutely now sexual side effect; however, over the past two weeks, I have begun to take note of the following: -a total drop in libido (absolutely no interest in sex) -no erectile...
