    ENTERING THE FRAY AGAIN

    hey people, I came off Propecia after using it without any success for around 11 months, and had to stop using minoxidil 5% after it gave me chest pains. After hoping for a miracle I feel I need to take matters into my own hands again. I have started to think of alternatives, and the most...

    leaving the battle

    Cheers everyone, I obviously want to keep my hair, but a reduced amount of minoxidil would be too risky. I exercise regularly, and having chest pains made me paranoid aout pushing myself to excess when playing football and running. I am only a young 'un, and would die of boredom without being...

    leaving the battle

    Hey guys, 23 year old British bloke here with his sob story. I have been using propecia for a year now, with no progress. So, I am allowing my sex drive and erections to experience a bit of normality. I used minoxidil with the propecia for 3 weeks about three months ago with excellent...

    minoxidil ALTERNATIVES - chest pains

    getting chest pains from minoxidil is so frustrating as I think it was beggining to strengthen my hair. Less shedding when showering, and less strands when I put my hands through my hair. What topical can I take which will not cause chest pains ????? and will have the same benefits. F!ck...

    chest pains from minoxidil

    I have been taking Propecia for nearly 10 months, but started using minoxidil too 3 weeks ago. My hair hs seemingly strengthened, but I have been getting uncomfortable chest tightness and weeziness, as I am a mild asthma sufferer. I really want to continue using minoxidil, but I am afraid of the long-term...

    new minoxidil user

    Hey people, I have been moaning about using propecia for nine months without results, so I have finally started using minoxidil in my most tender areas: crown, forelock and temples. I am hoping for decent results, obviously, but I was wondering if anyone has any tips for getting the maximum...

    applying minoxidil and spironolactone together ?

    how do I apply spironolactone and minoxidil together. I have finally succumbed to hairloss after nearly nine months and no damn progress on propecia. I can't lose my hair at 23 years (18 mental years) of age. I must maintain a cosmetically good head of hair until I'm 30. Then, who cares !

    DIFFERENT QUALITIES OF FINASTERIDE ?

    Are there different quality finasteride, as I have been paying £50 a month for propecia in the UK, and have just been shown a website where 30 5mg proscar pills will cost 24 euros. That is a ridiculous disparity in price. Will the Proscar be rubbish quality if it in't manufactured by Merck ?

    Change to Proscar ?

    Im soon to order my 10/11/12 months of finasteride and just wondering if I should start ordering Proscar. I am currenly paying about £50 a month for Propecia in the Uk, which is damn expensive, so I am thinking about cutting costs and adding a bit more finasteride to my dosage. Does anyone...

    NO RESULTS = WHAT TO DO ?

    Hey guys I am deciding what to add to my regimen as I have been on Propecia for more than 8 months with no positive results. I am seriously thinking about starting Minoxidil, but want to try spironolactone first. How do you apply the stuff, and how often should you apply it ? How long does...
