Hairline on Minoxidil and Propecia

[SalihAbdullah]

First time poster. I know that the answer to my questions lies somewhere within these forums but I dont want to scan everything so can someone help me with a few of my questions? Firstly a little information about my situation. I am 22 years old and first started noticing male pattern baldness in May 2006, five days later I got on generic Wal-mart minoxidil. After 6 months of seemingly no progress I ordered generic propecia. In dec I stopped minoxidil but continued with propecia and just three weeks ago I got a haircut bald. Now my thinning hairline only seem to get worse on both sides since I started the meds but since I cut my hair it got much more noticable and less grew back. So I started minoxidil again. Now that my hairl is growing back I can see that my hairline is horrible and worse than ever. So these are my questions.

1. I see little white hairs were my hairline used to be, is this good? will they grow into actual hair?

2. Is it like Im starting over since I took almost a 2 month break on minoxidil?

3. My temples hurt when I put minoxidil on now does this mean Im using to much.

Any responses are welcome.

1 Yes it is good.Little hairs are better than no hairs.
2 I dont know but now that you are using finasteride with minoxidil use them at least 6 months before any conclusion.Take pictures now and after 6 months take pictures again (same hair lenght)and you will see if they work for you or not
3 How much minoxidil are you using on your whole head at once?Anyway i never heard anyone complaining about pain when applying minoxidil...
