    Time to Give up?

    Thought I'd give an official update since I'm about 12 months in. I also found a few old pics from about 08/09' just as I started trying finastrad/minoxidil. If anything, it's clear that it certainly is better than doing nothing and it does work...I just wish it worked much better...... 12 months...

    Time to Give up?

    Update. Closing in on close to a year back on the Rogaine Foam and Proscar. I've been using pretty religiously and added nizoral 2% a couple times a week the last couple months. Months 1-8

    Well, we'll see what happens guys. I just don't remember a shed last time around. I attributed the loss of hair after the initial good results to being lazy and inconsistent with the treatments. I've been on the proscar and rogaine steady now for about 7-8 months so I'm a little worried. I mean...

    What's up all. I thought I'd jump in here and post an update. I am pretty much goin on 7-8 months or so now on the rogaine foam(twice daily) and 1.25 proscar daily. I seemed to be cruisin along since starting back on the rogaine, but I seemed to have my most significant results around the 4-5...

    Thanks Terral. I'll keep it up and continue to update on my progress..... Side note...my hairline isn't too bad so I'm not that worried about it. My major concern is the top of my head where it is so darn thin all over....I've also been dabbing small amounts of Rogaine on/near my hairline to...

    Im going all out!

    Indomethacin? mj9- Are you thinking of taking the Indomethacin for other reasons or are you considering it as part of your hair loss regimen? I ask because I came across your post and wondered how Indo factored into hair loss. I have never heard of that before. Just from a quick google search...

    Time to Give up?

    Update...I've been reading alot about the success of the Big 3. I've had good results from the Big 2 in using finasteride/Min before I became inconsistant and was going on and off the meds. Now that I have decided to go back to finasteride/Min, I'm wondering should I add the Nizoral and do the Big 3. It seems...

    Dropping Minoxidil - Staying on Propecia - Will I shed?

    Seriously no1 has ever dropped minoxidil on finasteride? My post is here http://www.hairlosstalk.com/interact/showthread.php/66991-Time-to-Give-up But yes, I dropped minoxidil while on finasteride just out of ignorance really. I didn't understand how/why finasteride and minoxidil worked. I paid the price big time. I didn't stop...

    Thanks Thanks for the reply. I've learned alot on these forums. I never really quite understood how the minoxidil and finasteride worked. I should have never stopped minoxidil. I assumed the finasteride was sufficient. Boy was I wrong! I guess it's just hard to say if the drastic thinning/shedding/hair loss was from...

    Hey all! Just lookin for some general tips/advice/suggestions. Basically I started thinning in my mid 20s but nothing major. I never really addressed it because I had such a short almost buzz hairstyle anyway so it didn't look that bad. Years later I chose a longer hairstyle and the hair...
