    Is there benefit to mixing Propecia with my minoxidil?

    As far as my gyno, I have always been in very good shape, but I recently have put on more bulk muslce (and fat). After I got on Propecia, a couple months later, I was getting huge, probably from the surge in Test. Anyhow, my gyno might not be propecia (directly) related. Maybe somewhat...

    Is there benefit to mixing Propecia with my minoxidil?

    I had wondered about that also, for example, if one just mixed, say, 10mg of finasteride into their one-month supply of minoxidil, would that work? 1) Would it more successfully go straight into and more directly affect the folicles? 2) Would systematic absorption be lessened? I have been on...

    propecia reduces your chances of prostate cancer

    Is there any evidence, such as a clinical trial (or repeated ones) that showed propecia reduced the chance of prostate cancer? It was my understanding, that that was never confirmed for any dose lower than 5mg. In my view, other than costs, I think most people could take the 5mg version...

    quarter pill proscar every other day?

    I am going to take 5mg, on Mon-Wed-Fri for a month, to see how it goes. Been on finasteride for 1.5 years, good results, but I want to do more experimenting. It has worked for me in every way, so I like to try different things. Things I can share with others on this board. I am convinced that...

    PROSCAR 1/4 OR 1/5?

    I have experimented with several types of dosages and time-frames, and they all have worked. I currently have switched to 5mg, twice a week. Sunday at noon, and Thursday morning at 7 am. No different in libido, or results.

    Erections and propecia!

    The loss of morning wood is common, even with the majority of us, who suffer no other sides. I have read numerous other posts over the years where someone was taking the appropriate dose, would still be able to get it up when needed, but no longer got the typical morning erections. It...

    Six years on finasteride

    Hey Ropcat, good info. I was on the site in 2000 also, and ordered propecia from it, or thru it. I cannot exactly recall. I gave it a try for about five weeks, and my sex drive went thru the roof! I was shooting loads powerful enough to split a turtle, and then at about week 3, I went...

    18 months on finasteride (nearly 3 on minoxidil): One significant side

    I alternate Nizoral and Head and Shoulders. Frankly, I think it is horomonal and has nothing to do with cleansing, or it not being clean, etc. I knew people who had face acne for years and were constantly using facial cleansers and lotions, etc, and it never helped. It's internal, at the...

    18 months on finasteride (nearly 3 on minoxidil): One significant side

    Acne on my head. It's like f*****g star search, you can map it out. I keep my hair short and I have three to five zits at any given time on my head. Growing up, I never had that "teenage acne" phase most people have, on my face or anywhere. Been on finasteride now since I think, Jan 2005...

    2-plus years w/ finasteride/minoxidil: 90 % Recovery

    UPDATE Well, it has been several more months now and my hair has just shown a marked increase in growth, since my last "sucess" posting. It is somewhat odd, it has really taken off here in April, filling in completely in the crown area. I continue to use CIPLA fincar (cut three ways for...

    finasteride 1.25 mg everyday and 5mg every 5-7 days - Will Brink

    Given that proscar is more cost-effective than propecia, and that taking it as 1.25 is the way to do it (unless you want to try to cut it into fifths), I have to wonder if there is a typo in the original text. If you replace the word "and" with the word "or", you get something a bit more...

    Changing Dosage: 5mg twice a week

    Is it really the stupidest thing you have ever read on here? I've been on here for five years (yes, just over two with this log on) and I have heard a lot of more stupid things :)- I realize it is broken down, but the DHT levels do not rise up within a few days, do they? I am trying to...

    Changing Dosage: 5mg twice a week

    Had good sucess, but deciding to experiment, by taking a whole 5mg, on Monday and on Thursday. Some will ask "why?" if it is working? I want to see how well it works if I simply take it whole, twice a week, versus cutting up 1/4th, etc. I have the "luxury" (for lack of a better word) to...

    How long have you been on finasteride...

    One year today, to the mark. I had dabbled before, but as of today, it is one year of consistent use, basically. Great results. See my sucess story in that forum. I have tried and done various dosages, from .5 a day, to 1mg a day, 1mg split into .5, twice a day, 1.25, 2.5, etc...
