    Obsidian's Story - (age 21) *** UPDATE***

    Sorry about that, work just always seems to keep me busy with work. Anyway things are much thinner and my temples/sides are heavily damaged. Definitely an NW3, with significant thinning in the NW3A area and thinning in the NW5 area. minoxidil is holding some but minoxidil alone is like using a bucket to...

    Pyrithione Zinc and shedding?

    I added in a 1% PZ shampoo a week and a half ago since Nizoral 1% has been out of stock for a while. I have noticed the past couple days I have been shedding a lot. It's been thick hairs, thin hairs, short hairs, and long hairs and I wonder if I should discontinue it as I remember hearing others...

    Your Hair Loss Is Not The Problem - The Way You Think Is!

    I think this section is important to vent your frustrations over hair loss, the problem is a lot of people here I feel do not properly vent there frustrations and instead let it build up and lash out, make irrational claims, or ideas. A lot of times it is because they are young and I still do...

    Anyone play guitar?

    I have been playing since I was 12 (now 24) went through a couple of year's of not playing as much because of, like you said, life picks up. I play mostly stoner rock/doom metal/sludge metal (think modern day Black Sabbath) but I also play alt. country and shoegaze. Been trying to get a current...

    Folligen

    Folligen - smorgas board of CP's Tricomin - One specific CP, although I still wonder if it's the same one used in the trial FWIW, when I used Folligen I felt I got more male pattern baldness maintenance/thickening compared to Tricomin which is making me want to quit tricomin,

    It's all over now...

    I remember when I first used finasteride it took my temple points from Norwood 2.5 on my left side and NW2 on my right side to an NW2 on my left and was headed to a NW1.5 on my right.

    Obsidian's Story - (age 21) *** UPDATE***

    When it's dry you can tell my temples are sparser than the front of my hairline and I have that crown 'line' you have when you are thinning in a NW5 regimen and have combed your hair forward. I'll post pictures later today. I suppose I should give a regimen update: Been losing for 6 years (I'm...

    I will be taking the Revivogen "New Formula" Challenge!

    When did you notice results on Rev and by maintenance do you mean no better but not worst?

    Where am I at now? (Sad state of balding)

    Can't really tell with the hairline but I guess NW2 with a vertex spot in the future. I know what you mean with life licking ***, I work 50 something hours a week in an engineering dept. Of an oil and gas company. Ever since starting with them my stress levels have gone through the roof. And my...

    Obsidian's Story - (age 21) *** UPDATE***

    Very much so since December, but I just think 6 years of male pattern baldness is catching up. Makes me want to do one last shot of finasteride but the problem is if I miss just one day, I get reflex hyperandrogenicity. :thumbdown2:

    Obsidian's Story - (age 21) *** UPDATE***

    Well in a way, it is kind of a success because I thought at 18 when I started losing I would be bald at this age. :whistle: Nope now it is just advancing. :thumbdown2:

    Revivogen + spironolactone + minoxidil?

    Since I did not have much success with finasteride, these sound like better alternatives. The only problem is rotation. Should it be. Morning: minoxidil+ spironolactone Early Evening: Copper Peptide Bedtime: Revivogen + minoxidil Any input would be appreciated.
