definitely start using Nizoral (one of the "big three", along w/ minoxidil and finasteride). you can buy the 1% version in most stores, but the 2% is technically available through prescription only. you can get around that by buying on eBay, etc. the people who know a lot more than me on here seem to...

interesting. well that is definitely something to keep in mind. i switched to Xandrox 15+ almost four months ago and it's been horrible for me so far. if things haven't improved by the time my current bottle runs out (another 6 weeks or so), i may well try this. the 5% minoxidil (1mL, 2x/day)...

i've been taking oral finasteride and 15+ coming on 4 months now (well, oral finasteride i've been on for years) and still am not seeing any improvement and actually still shedding like crazy and have lost a ton of ground in the past 4 months. different things work better for different people, it's not...

so what's the deal with this stuff? on paper it should be very effective (Aminexil + Minoxidil + Procyandin + etc), but in the search i did for it, it didn't seem to have much backing on here. on some store sites it had pretty solid reviews (mixed to some extent, although most of the people...

seems like you should just save yourself the trouble and use Spectral DNC which contains Aminexil + Minoxidil + Procyandin + Adenosine + (i think) copper peptides and a bunch of other vitamins and crap

to me, this has always made the most sense. i've been meaning to try it for like a year now but i always forgot to pickup the liquid minoxidil and now i'm using Xandrox 15+ at night in place of foam anyway. you avoid the greasiness of liquid during the day and if one or the other is more effective...

this site actually gives you a $5 discount on the "value pack" vs. Dr. Proctor's site and has free shipping (not sure if he does) http://www.hairlosswatch.com/nano_shampoo_by_dr_.htm

just a random question about this...i just added Nano shampoo to my regimen and will be using it 4-5x per week with nizoral the other 2-3x. but i'd still like to use Jason's Thin to Thick everyday and apply afterwards (i know some people would say it's not necessary after the nizoral, but i find it...

i don't know if anyone else has used both of these, but i used Prox-N for the first time yesterday and noticed that it looks (color) and smells very similar to Revivogen. anyone know what would be causing that (particularly the smell)? as far as i know, there aren't any active ingredients that...

this week i started cutting my dose of 15+ down to about 0.9mL (i just squeeze the dropper once and it usually fills to just slightly below the 1mL mark). i had been using 1.2-1.5mL every night and i'm thinking that may have caused an increased shed since it was rough enough on my scalp having...

just posted my 3-month update here like 9-10 days ago, but just thought i'd share that the shedding has gotten significantly worse since then (or maybe i'm just noticing it more now, but it was already bad and seems to have really increased to an almost absurd level in the last 2 weeks - when i...

well, i'm finally back (i had a few posts in this thread around the midway point). anyway, it's been almost exactly three months for me on 15+ and similar to Joey, the first month there wasn't any shedding and now for the last 2 i've been shedding a lot. i won't say that it's a way over the...

alright, update time. been on 15+ for 3 weeks now. i'm definitely noticing the extra hairs around my eyebrows already (which is weird, but i guess ultimately good). i DO see some vellus hairs in my hairline (can't really speak either way about anywhere else b/c LUCKILY my hair elsewhere is...

yeah, i haven't noticed an increase in shedding either. but then, i didn't really notice an increase in shedding when i started using regular 5% minoxidil (a couple of years after i started finasteride) and i know that the 5% helped. so i don't think that is a tell-tale sign either way

just wanted to give you guys a quick update. i'm only at Day 10, so i can't say anything about the effectiveness. as far as the "sticky/greasy/styling" problems. it is quite sticky (not greasy). my hair is fairly short right now so it's not really a problem for me in terms of styling and...
