Do you know of a study or website that states it takes that long?

Thats the question...I dont know if I have. Any idea (preferably links/studies) that have determined how long before minoxidil has its peak effects?

Thanks for the info on max haircount and finasteride. Anybody know similar data about minoxidil? I started off around a 3V on this scale http://www.hairtransplantnetwork.com/Sh ... sp?Class=6 Now I'm a 2.5 or so, diffuse thinner with a medium thin vertex. I'm just hoping to fill in the vertex and...

I took 1/4 of a Proscar table for ~1 year and then I added in 5% minoxidil. I'm curious to know when I should no longer expect any results (when the maximum benefits have set in). When should I be able to guage whether my hair is the best it will ever get? I've been on the minoxidil since July.

ANYBODY??? Generic minoxidil is about to run out...I'd rather buy from genhair and get a lower ppg sol'n. Can't afford Dr. Lee. Don't want any more CVS brand...

I want to get some lower ppg minoxidil and its hard to pay $17/month at Dr. Lee's after paying like $6 at CVS. Has anybody bought MINOXIDIL 5% WITH AZELAIC ACID 5% lotion from genhair.com ? Its cheaper than Dr. Lee's low PPG stuff and even has the azelaic. Is it a "lotion" or more of a...

So far I don't have any problems...I shave my head with no guard on the clippers...it dries pretty quick.

Whats the difference between that stuff and my generic?

so the FDA decided to approve it just for shits and giggles?

I've been on proscar (.25 of a pill per day) for almost a year now. I waited to see the results...and I think it has stopped my loss, but as far as I can tell I haven't had any regrowth. Today I purchased the generic 5% minoxidil. The box says only apply it to the vertex because that is the only...

so how do you cut your hair? I don't know what the most aesthetically pleasing way of cutting it is. I just buzzed it because thats what everybody says to do.

Hmm, those sound familiar (correllate) but I can't say one way or the other they were caused by the finasteride. I started lifting weights recently, that sweat/oily skin might be from that as well as increased libido. I don't know about shedding since I cut my hair short, but I have been losing my...

I posted info/pics on the "my story" page: http://www.hairlosstalk.com/discussions ... hp?t=14665 Should I be losing this much hair on Propecia? Will it possibly grow back?

Looking at these pics has made me realize my hair has gotten much worse in the 6 months I've been on propecia. Look in the first picture, at my crown I was thinning...but in the one I took yesterday (and when I look in the mirror) I can clearly see a circle on my crown. WTF!? I thought...

Also, I think the ideal length for me right now occurs about 4 or 5 days after I clip my hair with no guard...what guard do you think that is? .5? 1? Do they sell .5 guards?
