    L-Arginine

    I bought some of this in powder form and DAMN it tastes vile. I coughed out a third of it. There's no way I can eat it plain, I'd have to put it in water or juice or something if it was going to take it regularly.

    L-Arginine

    This might seem like a dumb question but I truly don't know the answer. L'Arginine is a powder, so how are you supposed to consume it?

    is anyone using .25mg finasteride (1/4 tab) with success?

    It makes sense to me to start off on a low dose if you're more cautious about sides than your hair. Working slowly and cautiously up to a level that you're happy with seems quite sensible.

    Sides are here - 1.5 years in

    2.5mg a day for a long period sounds like a lot to me. i really hope things get better for you soon but you might have to be patient. Your body will probably need time to readjust. I'd pick a sensible amount based on how important hair / hardness is for you and as long as you average that...

    Every second day = waste of time?

    Bryan your post was interesting but far from definitive. Say i'm looking to average 0.5mg a day. Is there any medical difference in taking 0.5 each day, 1mg each second day, or 3.5mg once a week? Maybe, maybe not, I no expert but I can't see how you can go wrong with the daily option...

    Every second day = waste of time?

    I’ve been thinking about this a lot and I think I’m just going to lower the dosage, and see if that helps. I think 15-20% is an exaggeration, it’s probably about 10%. I just had one ‘floppy’ experience with someone (in far from ideal circumstances) and that’s never happened to me...

    Every second day = waste of time?

    I've been taking 1/8th (0.6125mg) a day since I wrote this and using minoxidil and my hair is going fantastic, no complaints there whatsoever. But i do have diminished erections, say about 15-20% less hard which is very annoying and can be a problem at times. I'm thinking of giving finasteride up for a...

    Every second day = waste of time?

    Because it's too much! I'm starting off slow & steady, and everythings going fine so far. If the situation deteriorates then i'll seriously consider taking a higher dosage but have no need or desire at the moment.

    Every second day = waste of time?

    I've been taking 1.25mg of finasteride every second day for something like 9 months now, and recommended it to a friend. He did a little research and was informed that as it has a halflife of 4 hours there's effectively nothing left after a day so you need to take some daily to get results. So as of...

    Could someone bottomline proper minoxidil application for Me?

    So to be clear on this, it's ok to put a few drops in using the applicator and then rub it in with your fingers? Just try to minimise the amount going in hair rather than on the scalp. Applying stuff to my bald spot seems very tricky unless I get 2 mirrors or something... I have some...

    Proscar Dosage: Not Splitting?

    Mine says 'TABLETS TO BE SWALLOWED WHOLE> NOT TO BE BROKEN. Consumer Product Information is available from your pharmacist or doctor.'

    Proscar Dosage: Not Splitting?

    High dosages will have higher risk of side effects. The only things I can think of in favour of his approach are simplicity and also that big warning on the box that the pills are not to be broken up. I don't think that really anything to worry about though.

    Does it help to use hair conditioner?!

    Should you use normal conditioner after shampooing with Nizoral?
