Hey gang,
I've kind of fallen off the boards over the last couple of months but here's where i'm at with my hairloss battle.
From months 7-9 i've simplified even further. I'm down to the big three and the big three only. I cut spironolactone and folligen out of the equation. I have my irriation under control using nizoral every other day.
I never did really try spironolactone for a long time because the PG in the formula seemed to cause irritation.
I now apply PG-free xandrox 5% morning and night. 1mg of finasteride nightly. nizoral every other day. I take Biotin, Centrum, MSM, and Grapeseed pretty much every day as well.
Results? Barely any. I'm at about 9.5 months on finasteride and my crown is probably thinning at a slower rate. It actually may have stopped the hairloss in the back but there has been no regrowth. The front is thinning at the same rate as always. The amount of hair that falls out over the last 2 months has slightly decreased, but the quality of hair that falls out is horrible. They are all thin hairs with mosly no pigment at all.
I'm going to get a haircut on thursday and post some side by side comparisons that should cleary show my damaged front.
Next steps: Riding it out until month 12 when I will most likely switch to avodart with a xandrox 15% solution for another 6 months. If that finally doesn't work, i might try fluridil as well.
