That's the stuff I use too, have no problems with it. I use it 2 times a week usually.

As always Hook, your knowledge blows me away! I actually had a break from finasteride due to some sides I was experiencing, although I am not convinced it is due to that, but have come off them for the moment before I would have seen any benefits from it so I can access my situation and start them...

Yeah, that is what I thought, of course I'm sure it is possible to have a shed from it, like anything I guess. I will bin the Revivogen and see how it goes with just the S5 as a topical for the time being, hopefully the shed won't last too long, with hair as short as mine you really can see...

I've been applying S5 cream twice a day (day cream and night) for the last 3 and a bit weeks, no irritation etc. Hadn't had any shedding until now, have very short hair at the moment (0.5-1.5mm) and when I wash my hair I'm lucky to see 4-5 little hairs in the sink but tonight after putting some...

I did the same thing, when I noticed a bald patch forming at the back I knew sooner rather than later I would buzz it off. I started with a 1 on the sides and 2 on the top, 3 weeks later and I now use no guard in the clippers which is 0.5mm. It helped me deal with it too, and like macarona said...

For instance, for the guys that use spironolactone cream or AA and minoxidil and other stimulants or other products (rivivogen, caffeine therapies, oils etc...), how do you apply them? Do you use minoxidil, wait for it to dry, apply the next product etc? Starting minoxidil tomorrow and using S5 cream at the moment...

I agree with Doctor House, wet ALWAYS makes your hair look worse as it clumps together and exposes far more scalp, I looked half bald at the back when my hair was longer, and that was only when I noticed I was losing hair! I do not think you have anything to worry about. If you can, try to take...

I think for some people, it will buy some more time, I don't think it is realistic to expect to keep the hair you have for 5+ years with just using minoxidil and nizoral alone, but it could freeze the loss and possibly give a little more density if you respond well, but again that won't last. If it...

That is no problem at all. When I started losing my hair it really got me down, I could see clear loss, if bothered me enough to shave it off. I now shave it to 0.5mm. I can see the thinning and feel the bald spot that is increasing at the back, but ultimately I have learnt to accept that...

The density looks very good, all you're doing is pull your hair to show the normal parts in it, and it looks like you're really yanking it to show that too. The hairline might have a little recession, but does look like a mature hairline. I really don't think you have anything to worry about.

Yeah, money won't be the issue, I will just make sure I keep a routine around what I do. Yeah, if I do get any regrowth down the line I wouldn't want to risk cutting back using it!

Awesome, thanks for the info guys! I will start the minoxidil this weekend. Has anyone tried once a day over twice? I know some people have found some success with it but not sure what most think of that. Purely based on late night training after work etc and trying to time it properly!

Does anyone use rogaine/minoxidil on very short hair? I'm talking between 0.5mm and 2mm. I buzz my hair down now and the leaflet says not to use on shaved hair. Shall I assume they are talking about biced heads as a posed to very short hair?

So a week on finasteride, didn't notice much until last night, although a few times last week I had a dull ache in my penis, had trouble maintaining a "solid" state with my fella, even at the time I didn't panic so wasn't nerves etc, still not panicking about it either funnily enough. Today I have...

finasteride has a good chance of maintaining density, it may help with growth, however, minoxidil is a growth stimulant which can help with filling in the areas that have had some loss, but be aware that it doesn't regrow hair for everyone. If you find the liquid greasy you could try the foam? I know some...
