Oh, and stop worrying about the tits thing. I thought I was getting gyno for a while Nope, just gained weight in my chest and stomach so I was getting some little b**ch-tits (I'm getting older now, can't eat the way I used to). Get some cardio and eat healthy to take care of most "gyno". Or...

Hey just to throw my two cents in: I used 1 mg for a year with good results. The hair got thinner initially but by the one year mark it was thicker than when I started (diffuse thinner I guess). After about 15 months I cut down to .5 mg every other day. It's been about 7 months since I...

Don't stop for at least 6 months. I had a noticeable increase in sheddnig the first four months. My hair is doing much much better after 8 months.

Nice work, things are looking good. I personally want to delay the minoxidil for as long as possible, too. If it ain't broke, why fix it?

Try the scalp massage. It's been posted on here a couple times (do a search). Even if it doesn't help with the itch, it feels so good!! By the way, I also had some itching the first 4 or 5 months of finasteride which *seemed* to correspond with shedding. :nosmile:

Yah, like growhairgrow says, try the one percent solution first. The two percent gave me psoriasis about where my hairline on my neck is (on the back). Anyone else had this? I use just one percent on the top of my head and it seems to work great...

First, it's not my intent to "convince" you that my hair's gotten better. I already know it has. I could care less what you think. Second, different angle? It's straight down, it's the same angle, same distance. Both shots taken in the dark with flash. I've read a lot of what you've...

Maybe your opinion is wrong? But I don't want to turn my post into a flamewar. Let's just assume that working out does not affect your hair because it probably doesn't. I happened to notice a correlation but let's not forget that correlation does not equal causation. I could just as easily...

Only 22? I was 23 when that pic was taken. And yes, you would probably get results with half a pill a day. The thing is though, it seems to vary with every individual. Heres my theory: Some people have excess DHT in their bodies and some people have very little. People with lots of...

DEC31/07 Just wanted to report some good news since I think the number one complaint here is that some people have success and don't tell their story. For the back story, read the first entry in this post. In the last 6 months, hair has been pretty good. As of last month, I believe my hair...

You're right, Flim Flam, people have their own reasons for not taking medication, not JUST denial. For example: ignorance of the available options, fear of sideeffects, financial issues, etc. What I want to know is how long people waited, not why they waited. And for those who waited...

And I dont' mean buying some Nizoral shampoo and taking biotin. I mean solid, concrete steps such as finasteride (propecia) or minoxidal (rogaine)... I dont know if this poll has a valid scientific basis, I'm just curious. Feel free to post why you didn't start treatment ASAP or why you did.
