    No I have yet to see any changes. Honestly I don’t really get any acne but sometimes I notice like the start of it ? Then it will go away. My face still gets oily , and I’ve never really been an extreme case of this either. I’d like to think I have a solid 60 maybe 65% of my original hair but...

    Is it more effective to split the dose into 100 in the am and 100 in the pm ? I’ve just been taking .5 dutasteride, 200 spironolactone, and rogaine foam all at once before bed.

    I was thinking of doing this. I’ve been on .5 dutas and 200mg spironolactone for a month, minoxidil foam for about 2. I can’t see any sign of change ? Aside from feeling a little less energetic. Does anyone have any advice for how long I should try this before moving on to something else ? Is bica...

    He had a sort of forehead reduction surgery it wasn’t a transplant. He also was still taking aa when he left the forum- he just felt he had solved his problem and no longer wanted to spend time here.

    ***chiming in*** I used to perceive all aspects of my life in this way. As if everything happens for a reason and everything isn’t at the root completely random or that we all aren’t essentially bugs on a rock floating in the universe. Once I became aware of my hairloss and began to learn...

    Has anyone in here had the gyno surgery ?? Does anyone know roughly what this cost in the US ? I can start my own thread for this I guess but I always get the beat answers in here. I also feel like this thread should just be it’s own forum.

    Looks good. Considering where you started I can’t believe you’re at a point where you can expose your hairline and grow it out. Do you feel like you’re becoming more and more of an ideal version of your physical self ? You’re also lucky to have facial hair. It’s a good balance of feminine and...

    I’m sure this question has been answered in the forum but I can’t seem to find it :( Also for as long as I’ve been following this thread it just seems to be a generally safe place for people willing to go the distance/take real risks to cure their hair loss. I’ve also gotten lots of help from...

    Would you mind expanding on this a little more ? Taking dutas and fina and could probably stand to boost my own neurosteroids

    Hey would you mind explaining the itchy eyes symptom in a little more detail ? I’m just over a week into oralspiro+dutas and some of the skin at the bottom of my forehead/eye lids has become perpetually dry and flaky/itchy ... almost painful but I have no idea what may have caused it especially...

    Because I’ve been on fina for about 3 months where as I just started dutas. I might taper off fina eventually or play with alternating doses but for now I’m not trying to drop any treatments before I know whether or not they’re working.

    My drugs finally came in. Do you think dutas fina and 200 mg oral spironolactone a day will increase my test ? I thought spironolactone converted test ?
