Hello, been lurking on here for a long time . I'm 25, been losing hair since 18. it has been a slow process. have seen quite a few friends lose literally all their hair in 2 years or less since they werent trying anything so tried propecia at the age of 22 but got terrible sides.. started using Rogaine foam and it was brilliant - for about 6 months. got loads of compliments and significant growth after that my hair started thinning and getting coarse and really crap. I guess it just stopped being effective on me? maybe due to lack of propecia ?
So started Propecia feb 2012. It is now Nov 2012. I take 1mg pill everyday at the same time... i miss a dose maybe once a month MAX most months i havent missed. since I have started I have had zero sides.. unless my mild acne is due to propecia i can't be sure since I have always had oily skin. havent been using rogaine since about April. I use nizoral about once or twice a week.
I don't have any baseline pics but I have pics from August and pics I took today.
I can't believe how much worse my hair has gotten in three months. Please have a look and tell me what you guys think...continue with propecia or is there no point? or double down get some minoxidil as well ? maybe minoxidil will be better this time around with propecia in the picture? Around september I started taking protein shakes because I am working out - could this be a contributing factor?
Everyone says give propecia at least a year but it has been almost ten months what kind of a difference would 2 more months really make? PLEASE SOME ADVICE...first two pics are from about August 25th. the other ones are from today november 20th
