Blood thinners refers to the inhibition of clotting. THey don't actually make your blood less viscous

Minoxidil is a vasodilator, so yes it can cause migraines. Anything that dilates your vasculature has potential to cause headaches. As for them occurring after consistent long use I'm not too sure. I think most people that do experience any kind of headaches or sluggishness seem to adapt after...

Dutasteride inhibits types 1 and 2 of the 5AR enzyme resulting in up to 90% of DHT suppression. Finasteride targets only the type 2 class of the enzyme and gives approximately 70% DHT suppression. (correct me if I'm wrong this is all info from lecture this semester on BPH) Affinity of...

See im not sure about the wrinkle issue.. ive been on 5% twice a day for a year and sometimes i use 1.25mL or 1.5mL to get full coverage and I swear there are wrinkles on my forehead that were not there a year ago. Same thing as to the wrinkles near the corners of my eyes. Idk if it caused...

Will do, invincible. Im really hoping this is gonna be the treatment for me. finasteride was miserable for the 2 weeks I was on it. I'm really catching my male pattern baldness somewhat early I still have lots of hair its just insanely thin and thinning as we speak!

I'm about to place an order to OC at the end of this week for 10 grams of RU (they quoted me $380 shipped to the US).. should I hold off and look into ordering from FE? What kind of prices do they offer from FE and payment methods? Or.. even though the last batch from OC looks off has it...

Artas i know what your saying.. i look at pictures from a few months ago before i started minoxidil vs. pictures from this summer and i can tell my face looks rounder with puffier cheeks that cover my jaw line.. im gonna try using minoxidil 5% once a day instead of twice daily for these reasons...

I bought some cheap zinc from cvs it was the only one they had, but I'll stop by gnc today and get zinc picolinate. Erections felt better this morning. I skipped a dose of finasteride last night and I don't think I'm going to take any this morning. I looks like I'm done with finasteride for a while if not ever.

I started propecia 8 days ago at .25mg every evening. Being its barely been a week I need help from you guys as what to do. My balls have been aching since the first or second dose but has dulled out the past few days. My libido has dropped and it is somewhat hard to attain erections now. The...

I picked up my propecia from walmart pharmacy. It was $75 for 30 tablets. Its $85 for 30 tabs at a local CVS and at an independent they told me $102. Anyone know of any cheaper pharmacies? Also, when will propecia be going off patent for sure?

The generic proscar tabs are very tiny, smaller than the 1mg propecia tabs if I recall correctly. So cutting into 1/5th would be extremely tough, although a lot of people cut them into 1/4th and it doesn't seem to be an issue..

I am trying this "lower dose" theory as well because quite frankly I'm terrified of sides. This is my first time taking finasteride and I started 5 days ago at .25mg and will probably stay at this dose for a while. I still have a fullish head of hair and the way my balls have been aching since...

hmm so I should definitely be able to tell if the lump/tissue is undergoing gyno? The lump has always been a little tender and it has the past few days but I think just because I'm paranoid I keep checking it lol..I'm starting to think I should just try Rogain until I finish the end of puberty

I just started propecia four days ago. I'm starting very low at .25mg for the first couple of weeks. I've always had a small lump below my right nipple I guess since starting puberty (I'm 20 now). I'm wondering if this will be an issue with taking propecia? I tried to analyze the tenderness...

First post here as I have finally registered and joined the boards after following for the past couple of months. The past 6 months I have really thinned out and receded a lot to where its pretty noticeable. I started using nizoral 1% in September 2-3 times a week and started on super zix 2...
