Yeah definitely start on a low dose and up it gradually. You may adjust to it like myself. I hope this helps others. I remember reading these forums loads in about 2007, but just forgot about them as time went by. I only remembered this forum when I read about a hair loss article in Yahoo news...

Hi mate, all the photos above are years old and I dont have any recent pics up yet. Although I will soon. Yeah I am only on finasteride, which means I have maintained but not grown any new hair, but as mentioned above maintenance was all I wanted. Also I have no thinning of the crown and only frontal...

This is a quick update to say that I am still on Finasteride which I split in to 4, that gives me a dose of 1.25mg. I have been taking this for the last three years. I have maintained my hairline and in my eyes it looks to be the same as before. I stopped the minoxidil after a few months as I...

Well I thought Id give an update for my hair. Ive pretty much been on finpecia (generic finasteride) for over a year now. Have been taking since january 2007. I had started taking 0.5mg doses everyday but had to drop it for a few weeks because of sides. I then switched to .25mg everyday instead...

Hi all, I found this site today that sells minoxidil at really cheap prices, £18 for 3 x 60 ml bottles!! Is it because its a generic version or just a dodgy site? Also when I tried to order this stuff it rejected my card even though theres nothing wrong with it. Should I steer clear of this...

Tbh im not sure whether my diet is that bad, I always eat plenty but mainly the same stuff all the time. Maybe my diet isnt varied enough, and if anything I barely eat any fruit or veg. The only time I starve myself is whilst I am in work on the weekend. I do tend to lose a few pounds after the...

Both my grampas are bald, the one on my mothers side and the one on my fathers side. I have no uncle on my mothers side so no one to look at there. My dad and his brother (my uncle) both have plenty of hair in their early fiftys. Was hoping male pattern baldness wouldnt skip through to me.

Yeh guys ill keep you all updated, but to be honest my hair was never this bad until about a month or 2 ago where it just started thining drastically. Thats why im wondering whether its male pattern baldness or not. Im hoping that it is a health problem that can be sorted if not then im straight on the finasteride to try...

Heres my original thread http://www.hairlosstalk.com/discussions/viewtopic.php?t=32569 Well basicly my hair has become alot worse over the last 2 weeks im sure of it, its mostly on the right hand sideS. Heres some pics. See how thin it is in that area, Ive got a doctors...

Im thinking of buying propecia and splitting it into four pieces. Is this safe to take at my age, I have just turned 19 and was just wondering about the side effects of this stuff. Heres a link to my original thread, not had many replys there...

Well heres pics of my hair wet and combed back so you can all see my hairline. Also the problem areas at the side are really noticeable. Heres a close up of the problem area when dry

Hi all, as I said earlier im 19 an was just wondering if its safe to take finasteride, it wont ruin my sex drive or anything will it, cos tbh my sex drive isnt really high as it is right now and has concerned me for the last 6 months as its gone down considerably. But then again this is about the same...

Thats the prob though even looking at photos of me a year ago nothing has changed except the sides at the front. What i cant understand is why they have thinned so fast in the last few weeks but nowhere else. My hair is exactly the same as far as i can tell except in those areas. Is it possible...

K i got some photos of my hair wet and combed forward. Its just when my sides are pushed back you can see that there is loads of hair loss and it was never like that before. Hair line Top of head Side of head And heres where the problem is, my hair...

basicly I ve noticed my hair thinning on the sides but nowhere else so far as i can see. I dont think im losing any hair on top or from my hairline at the front. Just on the right hand side of my head and a little bit on the other side?? Im 19 and noticed that my hair has thinned on this side...
