Hey all, I just came across this site about 2 weeks ago and have been trying to read up as much as I can. I also want to start out by saying sorry for the long post. I have a few questions on somethings I've seen and I can't seem to find the answers even though I do a lot of searching.
First, my situation. I just turned 27 and I guess I would be a Norwood 2. About 2.5 years ago I noticed my templed had pretty much disappeared, like overnight. But I still had a strong "mature" hair line and the rest of my hair is really thick. A little over a year ago I noticed that the front of my head was really thinning out compared to the middle and back of my head, which was and continues to be extremely thick. My hairline still stayed pretty good, but just had overall thinning. I figured I would start to lose more so I got on Propecia. I think it helped to stop more loss, a litlte decreased libido. I decided to try to see if I could thicken that hair up. I heard an add on the radio for low-level laser light therapy, so I went to check it out. They obviously said I was a candidate and wanted me as a referall so they gave me $1000 off the cost. I've been doing it for the past 3-4 months and thought my front had thickened up some. In the past 2-3 weeks, my front has seemed to really gotten thinner and my hair line is losing some hairs. They say it's a normal shed because the old dead hairs are getting pushed out. So I'm thinking of adding some products and want some advice based on what I've read so far on here.
I just ordered some Folligen to help speed up the growth process during the dormant phase. I also have a little itching which I heard this will help. I was going to buy some 1% Nizoral to start out with and some American Crew CU peptides. I was also thinking of trying 2% spironolactone but see some mixed reviews. I also can't find where to buy it at. I'm also contemplating Reivogen. So it's a toss up between spironolactone and Revivogen.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
