Here was my previous post for more info. My Story: I was diagnosed with male pattern baldness at 19, and immediately started using min (on crown) and finasteride. I went through some intense shedding, which finally stopped about a year later. Since then my hair has remained the same. Nevertheless, during that shedding...

I stopped Dermrolling at 12 weeks. It's now been four months since I started, and my left temple is coming in nicely. It's almost completely back to where it was before experiencing hairless--something I was unable to achieve with Min alone. (Pic) http://i.imgur.com/Vsb1q3o.jpg

Do not use Min the same day you roll.

Definitely. Min works best on areas that are just beginning to thin out. You will likely see great results, although everyone is different.

I split the 5mg finasteride into quarters. It's much cheaper that way.

I first noticed minor receding of my hairline at 19. Within a month I began finasteride and Minoxidil. Three months on: tons of shedding. Six months on: even more shedding. I did not give up. Finally, at around the one year two month point, the shedding stopped. The hair that was lost during that...
