    ANY documented case of finasteride/minoxidil exacerbating male pattern baldness???

    Did you notice increased hair loss almost immediately after taking Propecia, or after a few weeks of it?

    Freaking out a bit

    Just out of interest, what sort of impact has Propecia had on your hairline?

    Propecia and thinning...

    This could be a completely stupid question, so feel free to ridicule... I currently have slight thinning on the hairline/temples, though it's not hugely noticeable. My hairline started receding probably about 5 years ago (when I was 17ish) and has receded very slowly. I'm now on 1mg Propecia...

    Propecia and shedding

    As suggested by people here, I've just started taking Propecia today. Thanks for the help! Just one question - I know that shedding phases are likely when taking Propecia. I was wondering if these temporary phases actually make a noticeable physical difference - i.e. make you look visibly...

    Propecia and receding hairlines

    Hey guys, I'm now 22 and have had a receding hairline since about the age of 17. However, it's receded really slowly - so much so that most people still wouldn't be able to notice that it's receding. I'm considering starting Propecia - I really don't want to start doing Minioxidil because...

    Propecia at 19 in the UK?

    Does anyone know if a GP in the UK would prescribe Propecia for a 19 year old? Is there anyone in either the US or Britain who had it prescribed at this age?

    Propecia and Nizora alone?

    People - some quick advice if possible - would be very much appreciated! If you've only just started to develop a receding hairline, do you reckon some Propecia and Nizoral will be enough to save you? minoxidil seems a howge effort to use, in that you have to use it twice a day with 12 hours...

    Very Quick Questions...

    1) When does a normal mature hairline stop and receding one begin? What's the best way in distinguishing between the two? 2) If your hairline has just started receding and not visible to other people and you start using a combination of Propecia and Minoxidil, are you virtually guaranteed to...

    Agh! Some advice please :)

    Firstly thanks very much for the feedback. Flux - what's spironolactone? And in response to drunkrum's comments about Propecia - I've heard that this is designed for thinning at the crown, rather than a receding hairline - would it be successful in preventing further hairloss at the hairline...

    Agh! Some advice please :)

    Hey there - Basically I've been hungup on having a prematurely receding hairline (I'm 19) for the past year or so. Noone has noticed yet and still refuse to accept I do, including this Doctor a little while ago, but I know it for a fact - for example, if I squashed my hair into a sort of...

    Propecia and receding hairlines

    Hey there - basically I have a receding hairline, but not to the extent that anyone else can notice it (I've asked tons of people, including my friend with premature baldness, and they all think I'm crazy). It's something I've been worried about for months, and despite everyone's denials, I can...
