    Increased sex drive with finasteride

    Okay - so that study would imply that anything which inhibits 5a-reductase would be successful at stopping hairloss. How big was the study?

    Begstealborrow's Story - (age 25, high hairline)

    my stomach was nearly in my throat after reading that first line! I may try and do this, theres a few clinics offer laser treatment in the nearest city so perhaps their consultation would be a good bet. Im guessing Norwood wise at the moment im probably 1.5-2. Going on what Dr Zoidberg or...
