    Large shed period while on big three - good sign?

    I didnt' use rogaine probably I think for about 3+ months. But I don't think I noticed much loss but then I noticed it got sparser again. Now that I'm back on it I'm noticing a big shed, which i take it as a good sign.

    Large shed period while on big three - good sign?

    I had stopped using Rogaine for a while (used Spectral DNC because it smelled better/didn't mess up hair) even though I had been using Rogaine for a while. When I decided Spectral wasnt doing anything as my hair previously responded to Rogaine in the past. I switched back to Rogaine two months...

    Scared to take finasteride, how to mask topical spironolactone odor?

    I'm REALLY scared to go onto finasterade and while I should talk to my doctor about it anyway, I'm just weary, and I'm pretty sure my parents won't let me go on it either due to the possible side effects. I told them that that it would help me but I risk those side effects, hormones, etc...

    Max's Story - (21 / rather overwhelmed/upset.)

    I already started a 1% nizoral and because I haven't been on any vitamins other than some fish oil pills, I did buy myself some biotin skin, nails and hair vitamins and a daily men's vitamin. I contacted my psychiatrist to talk about if any of my regular medications that I take could cause...

    This is a nightmare. I set up a doctor's appointment to make sure it's not my medications or something else causing it. Then I will go to my dermatologist.

    Additionally my scalp has been pretty pink as well. Do you think it might be more of an irritation kind of thing? I do get psoriasis patches on my temples. Really any comments would be helpful, I can add more pictures too.

    Max's Story - (21 / rather overwhelmed/upset.)

    I'm not a very confident guy, sorta shy and have been trying for a long time to loose weight/tone up from being rather skinny to getting rather fat at age 8, and was rather big+tall by fifth, sixth grade. My confidence has never been great through the teen years...and I'm still adjusting, even...
