Fish high in omega-3, cauliflower, avocado, almond milk, leafy greens, eggs, cucumbers, coffee with a splash of heavy cream, to name a few things. While I don't eat carb rich food, I get some from veggies.

4 Years & 3 Months into Regimen In January I decided to adopt a ketogenic diet. After about 6 weeks of the diet, I noticed a fair bit of new hair growing on my hairline. Now approaching 4 months of keto, I've added on about the same amount of regrowth as I did in my first full year of...

I don't use shampoo for treating my hair loss, but I use Finesse or Herbal Essences for washing my hair like normal. I used to use Nizoral once a week, but I became concerned that it was too harsh for the tiny new hairs I was growing after I started finasteride. EDIT: I saw another post of...

Almost 4 Year Update I've been asked via private message for another update. My cats are still fine and there has not once been a "scare" or incident. Party on cat lovers. :cool:

3 Years & 10 months Into Regimen, 1 year on Finasteride Now that I've been on finasteride for a whole year I wanted to check in, but I don't really have much to say. My regimen in nonintrusive and my hair loss has stopped so I don't really think about it anymore. I'm still experiencing regrowth, but...

It's been a while since I've taken any pics! Attached is my 42 month (~3.5 year) progress update. It's kind of hard to tell if I'm better off compared to my 15 month pic or about the same. The new growth can be spotted just above my hairline by looking closely for hairs pointing forward instead...

3.5 Years Into Regimen, 7 Months on Finasteride - Still doing 5% minoxidil once a day, as well as 1mg of oral finasteride. No sides and everything is fine. The few dozen mini hairs below my hairline have continued to grow, but I'm seeing the most regrowth just above my hairline. A week ago I...

It sounds like you want to tackle your hair loss but you are afraid of the Big Three. Based on where you're at now I don't think you're going to have 15 worry-free years. You probably know this deep down as you're on this forum and looking for things to try to stop it. My advice is not to wait...

I have been on finasteride for three months now. Still no sides, everything seems to be normal. For some reason worrying about gyno recently popped into my head. I have become hyper aware of my pectoral area but fortunately haven't experienced any signs of gyno. I have made some major changes...

I use more than the recommended 1ml to ensure proper coverage. Usually around 1.5 - 2ml. I've been doing this for a couple years twice a day (though as I've hopped on finasteride a few months ago I have been experimenting with applying it once a day). No sides or dizziness, but everyones mileage will...

I recently received an inquiry asking for a follow up on this topic so I thought I'd publicly share it here. To date, my cats are still perfectly healthy. In the 3+ years I have been using minoxidil there haven't been any scares or incidents. I stand by everything I said in the original post...

3 Years Into Regimen - It has almost been 6 weeks since I've added 1mg finasteride to my regimen. Thankfully still no sides. I had a minor shed around week 2-3. I'm not really sure if it was caused by the finasteride or if it was just a natural cycle I was going through. I also might be seeing some...

My hairline wasn’t moving, but after 2.5 years I started to need to apply the rogaine to a larger area above my my temples. Then I began losing density at my crown (wasn’t applying minoxidil there) so I just jumped on finasteride. I still use Rogaine though. By the way I read another one of...

I was able to halt my receding hairline for over 2 years with rogaine. Rogaine’s clinical studies were on the crown. The studies concluded with rather positive results. Instead of doing studies on the hairline and potentially having to report lower the numbers on how effective rogaine is, they...

I'm glad to hear you're going to try some options out. As I've said previously, I think you're a perfect candidate for treatments. Though I'd still suggest trying finasteride before duta. It has less sides, more research regarding hair loss, and depending where you live it might be easier to get ahold...
