    Finasteride delayed or no ejaculation

I have developed really bad anxiety and depression in the last couple years and have started and stopped anti depressants. I have not been on any in months and noticed my semen volume has decreased...

    Minoxidil foam before or after RU solution?

    I have been on oral finasteride and Kirkland foam for a while. I bought the premixed RU solution for now to see if I respond. Should I apply before or after minoxidil foam in the evenings? If I respond well I will switch to liquid minoxidil at night with added RU to save money. I wanted to try...

    Best minoxidil enhancer: tretinoin or microneedling?

    Any updates? I have been micro needling with a roller once a week for almost 4 months. Definitely improvement in density. I have been on minoxidil foam and finasteride for a few years. I just added tretinoin cream (probably way too much) and have been shedding. I have to use a about 3-4 pea size...

    How to mix a retinoid and minoxidil

    In the last 2-3 weeks I have been applying tretinoin to my scalp. It is very hard to get to the scalp because I am a diffuse thinner. I apply the tretinoin using way too much then apply Kirkland foam a few minutes later. Can I mix the tretinoin cream in some liquid minoxidil for easier...

    Four Days Post Op 2700 Fue Donor Scabs

    I had 27xx grafts placed on hairline and temples along with the crown. My question is should I be washing the donor area scabs off this early or let them fall off naturally. Still applying the antibiotic ointment to the donor area and spraying the recipient site with saline.

    finasteride And dutasteride And Hairline And Anxiety

    I agree. It could be lots of things casing it. There really isn't a way to figure out what it could be. I was just thinking if I took out one dutasteride a week that it may help. Like M/F dutasteride and the rest of the days finasteride.

    finasteride And dutasteride And Hairline And Anxiety

    I just want to give a little background and get some opinions. I have been on Rogaine foam for almost 8 years. I just turned 30 and have played around with finasteride and dutasteride off and on over the years. I started taking 1 pill daily of Dutasteride on January 25th 2017. I gave it the...

    Toppik And Turning Into More Powder Than Fiber

    My Toppik seems to turn into more of a powdered texture after I have used about half of the container. When I first open a container the fibers are more like fibers. Does this happen to others? Is it something causing it? Is there a different brand that people have better success with?

    finasteride And dutasteride Combo? Any Advice Please

    I am currently on the dutasteride 3 days a week. I took dutasteride daily for 1 year and thinned much more. So 17 days ago I added 1mg finasteride on Tuesday, Thursday and the weekend and cut back dutasteride to mwf. Nothing to report yet. Possibly more shedding the last couple days.
