I am so glad another Accutane thread appeared. I posted a while ago about my experience with Accutane, but I am really surprised there isn't much information on this, and considering it's quite a well known drug, I'm even more surprised that using Accutane as an alternative to hairloss solution...

Let me share my experience with Accutane, hope this will bring some insight for those looking into this regime... I have been a diffuse thinner ever since high school (6 years ago), and I only know this because that was when my friends started commenting on my thinning hair. It never really...

I'm really glad someone brought this topic up as I've been looking for an answer to this question for a long time... Are there other similar threads on Accutane that might be useful? Let me share my experience with Accutane, hope this will bring some insight for those looking into this...
