S5 cream hasn't done anything for me and I have used it religiously for 2 years or so.

Finasteride wasn't helping me keep the hair I had. After seeing a thread on here that showed successful results with dutasteride, I initially switched from finasteride to dutasteride once a week but my hair kept getting worse. I thought that maybe I needed to take dutasteride everyday. I continued to lose hair but...

The same thing happened to me. My hair seems to be getting worse in the front with Dutas but I just assumed it is not working. What rational explanation could explain this though.

My hair looked pretty good 4 years ago, (your hair looks way better) but I could tell I was starting to lose it when I styled it. It just felt different though anybody I told would probably laugh at me. I immediately started finasteride. I continued to lose my hair but heard that it take 2...

Thanks for the recommendation of Ryeo shampoo. I was going to use Regenepure days I don't use nizorol but bought this instead. I noticed on the amazon listing it said that it was "Approved by Ministry of Food and Drug Safety for root-strengthening and scalp circulation." How many times a week do...

Thank you for posting Pbot64. From the pictures, it does look like some regrowth. One thing that will really help you see how much your hairline has progressed is getting a buzz cut. I find it the easiest way to gauge my results. When rolling did you get a lot of bleeding in the areas you...

I have continued with this for 19 weeks. I can't say that I have seen anything in that time. I am happy for anyone who has seen noticeable results in under 12 weeks. Maybe I need a microscope. I do see tiny thin hairs on my temple and around my hair line though I am not sure if they were...

I am pretty sure if dermarolling works, people will report their findings by the end of the year. If it works, it should be able to stand on its own two legs. When I looked at a bunch of scientific studies in this thread and online, there are a ton of studies that show sufficient wounding...

Thanks. I am trying to keep an open mind and give this time. Sorry, I was just summarizing the linked study in Nature which found "Notably, humans lack a robust population of resident dermal γδ T cells, potentially explaining their inability to regenerate hair after wounding." There is...

I think it's great to have a balanced conversation about this because really I think we need at least a year to evaluate whether this does anything. Even if wounding and Rogaine worked, it wouldn't work for everyone. In response to my reply earlier I've decided to post pictures of my temples...

This year my hair is getting worse and worse. Earlier this year I followed another study that said dutas could help, but honestly on that my hair still continued to deteriorate. I have been derma rolling since I found this thread. Tonight will be my 11th week. When I dermaroll I get bleeding...

I have been following this thread since the beginning and have been dermarolling and applying minoxidil just like the study for 2 months now. I haven't noticed any apparent cosmetic changes to my overall hair. All I know it is worse than last year. However, after the photos were posted here by a...

I don't post often but actively read this forum and I don't understand most of the science posted here, but I have been keeping up with this thread since the start. I have been onFinasteride for 2 years and minoxidil for 6 months and continue to lose my hair. This thread has been helpful in...

I read the same study about adding Avodart. Definately get advice from a professional as they can do the necessary tests. Please keep us informed what happens in the next few months. I hope it grows back.

Thanks Finnjavel, I have just got minoxidil. Thank you so much for the suggestion as I was afraid to pull the trigger and thought I should wait it out longer until I hit 2 years. It's funny that you mention this. Over the last two months I switched to the brand proscar 5mg to try and see if it...
