i agree, i have both recession and diffuse thinning and i would much prefer to just have recession cause you can shave it at least without it looking to weird.

it says on it best to keep refrigerated or at room temperature. does it matter? is it better to keep it refrigerated or just as long as its not exposed to heat?

One more quick question. Does this cream have any kind of smell to it?

Thanks for the response wesley. I'm currently just using the foam with pretty good results so i probably wont be making a switch to anything stronger for awhile. I was looking into the lotion but your basically the only person ive seen using it but when i do switch i will definitely consider the...

Well are you using anything currently? If not i would hop on the big 3 obviously. Also you can think about copper peptides, some sort of topical antiandrogen like spironolactone or flut. Some people use prox n and some people seem to be having some success with that new virile mane product. You really...

Ill take your word for it. Its like 31 i think but you have to go through the hassle of consultation and the 20 fee. I think i'm gonna save trying a higher concentration minoxidil for awhile so if your product is of comparable quality and price i will probably just go with yours in a few months when...

i'm still not sure what i am going to do. I might end up using flut like mwf and spironolactone the rest of the time or something but i would be afraid i wouldn't know what was helping me. Is flut safe to use all over the scalp or just in small areas at one time? Have you used flut before and if so what...

i would like to know this to. I am thinkin about adding spironolactone in a few months and would rather not go through the consultation and everything with lee and the s5 is about the same price, actually cheaper, for the same amount. Is the s5 cream comparable or would it be better off just going with...

yea i have the same problem. When light is behind me or there is low lighting my thinning is hardly noticeable but if its bright lighting in front or above me it become very noticeable. I guess it means you still have a good amount of hair its just very light and thin? I'm hoping that is the...

thanks for the response. Yea i've done a lot of research on both and appreciate el duterino's insight. I obviously think i would have more success with flut but id be very nervous about using it because i have never experienced sides on any treatment as of yet and my dad had liver problems so im...

hey man i can definitely sympathize i'm not even 19 and my hair has been going since 16 and is noticeably thin all over my head with recession. It definitely is hard to deal with but its not the end of the world. I feel frustrated about it all the time and its hard to be as sociable as i used to...

many people use some form of copper peptides. They have a regenerative effect on the follicles and promote scalp health in general. The two products most people use are folligen and tricomin. Tricomin went through FDA 2 trials and was shown to effective for regrowth comparable to about 2%...

I'm very interested in the prospect of topical antiandrogens and plan on trying one out after this semester of college. I'm torn on whether to go with spironolactone or flutamide. I know spironolactone is the safer of the two but many people do not get good results with it. Flut usually yields better results but...

I totally agree. Forums like this are a much more informative place to find out information than probably any gp and most dermatologists unless they specialize in hair loss. My dermatologist doesnt seem to be very knowledgeable or even care which is strange since he is one of the baldest people...

it was regular old propecia from a pharmacy. so legit stuff unless my local target pharmacy is ripping people off with fake drugs which is rather unlikely there is no reason it shouldnt have helped me. i guess im just not a responder and maybe even responded badly which is why im not sure about...
