    Anyone Recommend or have tried Folligen Spray?

    I'm giving it a shot right now... I use a dermroller (0.5mm) and then apply the folligen spray right after. It smells pretty bad, and burns my scalp for about 15 minutes. But I will let you all know if I get some extra hair growth. Cheers

    azidothymidine (AZT)

    I read online that PA university had discovered that azidothymidine (AZT), an anti viral drug used to treat patients with HIV and certain viral related cancers could also be highly effective in preventing hair loss and stimulating hair growth. It has been asserted that the only reason its not...

    Anyone had success with .25 mg of propecia?

    I cut my proscar into 5th, I was worried about sides at first, but honestly I think many people on here don't realize the impact your mind can have on your physical state. I take my proscar everyday and don't spend much time at all on these message boards, just live my life, and that would be...

    Chemical Induced Hair Loss

    While cleaning my bathroom, my brush was exposed to pinesol, which is a chemical cleaning agent. After I combed my hair I lost hundreds of hairs and my hair is looking terrible now. I quickly realized I may have gotten some pinesol on my brush and rinsed my hair using a natural shampoo. Is...

    Perscrption for Proscar?

    I would switch doctors, there is no reason not to give you a Proscar prescription, its not like there are any serious sides from even taking the 5mg pills. I have never had a problem with either of the 2 doctors I have had in the past months in getting a Proscar prescription. It seems your like...

    Help Required - finasteride problem

    Be very careful with liver flushes, I'm a physiotherapist so I see a lot of medical literature, and many can have serious side effects. I'd suggest asking your GP for a referral to a hepatologist, to get some specialized advice and care.

    Can you post pictures of your Pill cutters for Proscar?

    Cassin is absolutely correct, it dissolves in your mouth and this process begins almost instantaneously. I personally choose to use a surgically sharp arts and crafts knife, and tweezers to cut into 5 pieces, takes 30 secs, every 5 days. I included the cutting diagram, I personally cut #1 a...

    so, i'm finally going to do it!

    I also jumped onto finesteride after my exams, so I didn't have any stresses in my life. I get Proscar directly from the pharmacy, and cut it up into 5 pieces (1mg/day). I bought a surgically sharp knife from an arts and crafts store for about $10, and then use tweezers to hold the pills in...

    Propecia alternative

    I started taking Proscar, cut up into fifths (easy to do) a little over 3 months ago and have not looked back. I combine this with nizoral use a few days a week and I'm already starting to see results. It costs me $97 Aus for 30 pills, therefore costing me $237 per year or less than $12 per month...

    Drink glass of Red wine every night and see thick hair

    Commonsense, I'm wondering if you have evidence of any kind to support your theory? Pics? studies? anything And secondly how can you make these claims after only 2 weeks, when we all know the natural cycle of hair growth takes much much longer? P.S. I love red wine, but I'm still losing my...

    Olive oil.

    I use emu oil every 2 weeks approx, or whenever my scalp has been exposed to the hot Australian sun for a period of time. I usually wet my hair, and part it with a comb, so that I can apply it to the areas with less hair coverage (the more sun exposed areas). It doesn't take much to cover your...

    Jojoba oil

    With the recent talk of DHT working to inhibit sebum (even if in small amounts) as being a possible mechanism to prevent male pattern baldness, I'm wondering: 1) How many are using Jojoba oil? 2) What kind of added success has it brought? 3) Is it worth adding to my regime of Proscar (1mg daily), nizoral (3-4x...

    Can you post pictures of your Pill cutters for Proscar?

    I bought a surgically sharp knife from an arts and crafts store for about $10, and then use tweezers to hold the pills in place while I cut the pills. Very easy to do and the knife glides through the pills with minimal breakage.

    Finasteride dose, results timeline for users.

    3 months at 1mg (proscar cut into fifths) My hair has recently started to thicken up, and looks much improved, but I'm still losing a lot of hairs everyday. Patience is key, be consistant and think long term. My doctor is a surgeon and very well informed on this subject and told me I need to...
