    How do you combine Retin-A and Rogaine?

    That is what I've been doing but it's annoying to smear a yellow gel through my hair.

    How do you combine Retin-A and Rogaine?

    I have two tubes of Retin-A Micro. If I squirt some of that into the minodixil jar and shake it up, is that OK?

    What is the most effective way to combine tretinoin and minodixil treatments?

    "Shedding" for nearly seven months...time to stop?

    If you say finasteride cannot induce a "shed," then what explains my massive shedding for seven months after stopping and restarting finasteride use?

    "Shedding" for nearly seven months...time to stop?

    I suppose I'll just stick with it. I hate having to use all of these things (now minoxidil, saw palmetto, tretinoin) just to keep my hair on my head when almost everyone else my age is carefree. I think if I never started to worry about a receding hairline, I would not be in this predicament...

    "Shedding" for nearly seven months...time to stop?

    I am 18, a freshman in college. I was upset about a receding hairline a year ago. If I knew that one year later I'd had diffuse thinning on my crown, I would never have started finasteride. I am afraid to stop using it since the condition might just get a whole lot worse. I don't know how to...

    "Shedding" for nearly seven months...time to stop?

    No! My question is: Should I stop using it? Seven months straight of shedding with finasteride use.

    "Shedding" for nearly seven months...time to stop?

    No problems before. I stopped because it was too expensive and thought I'd try shampoos and such. I only had a receding hairline without much loss in density.

    "Shedding" for nearly seven months...time to stop?

    I starting using finasteride one year ago and then stopped temporarily in May. Since then, I have experienced massive shedding from my crown. Is it likely that I have hyperandrogenicity now and that stopping finasteride would stop this reaction?

    How long until results: Tretinoin? Minoxidil?

    Could you answer the other questions? I read that tretinoin will produce stronger results, though this is by no means a scientific statement.

    How long until results: Tretinoin? Minoxidil?

    I recently read on here that Tretinoin (Retin-A) is a hair growth stimulant. I have two tubes of 0.1% Retin-A left over from my past wars with acne, and I want to start using it on my scalp. I also think I should get minoxidil because finasteride has practically decimated my scalp. My...

    What do new hairs look like?

    I am only 18. I had a slight receding hairline, I panicked, and began using Propecia one year ago. It worked well, but I didn't know that you have to take it for life for it to be effective. After I stopped using it for a week last May, shedding began. I started to use Propecia and have been...

    What do new hairs look like?

    Are they thin and vellus-like at first, and then darken and thicken? Or do they come in dark and thick from the start? I see a lot of small, light-colored hairs coming in along my hairline. I hope they're going to grow longer and darker. However, if they're genuine vellus hairs, then...

    Help! Should I stop Propecia now?

    Obviously to see what arguments can convince me otherwise, moron.

    Six months of nothing but agony

    I started to use Propecia almost one year ago. I stopped for a couple weeks in May, began to shed, and immediately began using it again. Since May, I have been shedding nonstop from only the top of my head. It now seems like the hairs are getting progressively thinner as they fall out. Might...
