Hey folks, Here are a few pics that I took back in December of last year compared to some I took today. I was wondering if you guys see any progress or anything. I am currently on finasteride and minoxidil. So, I have posted the links of the new pictures below as I am not too good with the uploading...

I am using a combination of rogaine and finasteride at the moment and it is maintaining well. I was wondering, what is the next step up after rogaine liquid? I was thinking about topical spironolactone. Also, since it has been over a year on finasteride, is it time to give dutasteride a try? Thanks in...

Thick and thin, I was wondering where you measured the one inch from to calculate your recession. Is it from the highest crease on your forehead as mature hairlines are measured or from the tip of the middle front of your hairline?

Dude, get on finasteride, how can you rule it out when you haven't even tried it yet. Try a low dosage at first if you feel so cautious. Do you know that only 2% get any sort of sides? What are the chances that you will be included in that 2%? Well, 2% I suppose...ha

The finasteride sides are all in your...

Could anybody give me an idea what I am on the Norwood scale exactly. Thanks!

So, I guess a brief history of my loss would be a good start. Well, I would say my temples started receding when I was about 13. I did not really notice it until I buzzed my hair one year. So, ofcourse not knowing anything instantly I thought it was male pattern baldness and I was worried. I didn't do anything...

So I started Proscar in the beginnning of July mainly because I was shedding quite a few hairs from all over and had a bit of temple recession. About 3 months in, the shedding had pretty much completely stopped save for a few hairs here and there. Then about a month later, the shedding begin...
