Hey guys Im 19 years old and i have thinning hair for the past year or so. I started on some Beta sitosterol and saw palmetto about 2 months ago. Just added Biotin 5000mg a day and DIM to my regime. My scalp was itchying really really bad over the past year and tryed some stuff like selsun blue but that didnt really help that much jsut got rid of some itchying. I picked up some nizoral 1% in the past week along with some organic shamppo called Avalon Biotin B-Complex shampoo (has SP in it too). I have been using both of those once a day and my scalp inflmattion/itch has almost completely gone away. I was debating on taking Propecia/finasteride but im pretty young at my age to take it but if the itchy scalp went away does that mean i am removing or slowing down the shedding of male pattern baldness? Im wondering whether or not i should continue with the regime i have and that i will see improvement or add Propecia becuase just because the itchying went away i am still going to lose hair fast?

Propecia will help with the itch but I would not use Propecia until 21 +
(That is just my advice)

I don't know what your hair loss is like. For me and many others the itch = hairloss. You stop the itch, the hairloss usually stops.
You may maintain without Propecia but not always likely. There are other alternatives though to Propecia that are stronger than your treatments/Regimen.

Try adding a shampoo with tea tree and piroctone olamine that seemed to help the itch slightly. I knew this when I stopped using it for a while, suddenly my itch came back. I am testing to see if it actually works though. So I'll keep you updated.
The shampoo I use is...
"Organic Tea Tree Anti-Dandruff Shampoo"

Ok Thanks guys appreciate it. Well the good thing is also my shedding is very minimal compared to what is was when the itching was bad so I atleast have to be making some improvement. Here is the shampoo I use
