Hi, i just came across this site yesterday and have been reading loads of information and then further researching what i've learned on here, such as new products, online. I am extremely happy to have found this site! so much good info on here.

What i'm asking for is for people to tell me if what i'm doing to regrow my hair is good, and what suggestions I could do to get better results.

my name is Eric, and i'm 25 yrs old. I noticed my hair thinning when I was about 18... sucked!! over the last 5 years i've tried finasteride, rogain and nioxin. I've used these products at different times and never together. About 4-5 months ago I purchased a laser hair restoration device. Its called Super Grow 50. Has anyone heard of it or tried it? and when i bought this I decided to target this problem from every area I could. So this is what i'm doing right now.

Laser hair- 20min every other day
finasteride(1/4 proscar tab) once in morning and then at night
Nioxin morning and night with the topical solution

I've been reading about dutasteride and think i'm going to go to a doctor and get a prescription for it this week? what do you think?

Ive also been reading about nizoral shampoo, should i use this too??

Last i've been thinking about minoxidel. should i use this? if so should i use the 2% or 5%. Ive read about others useing higher grades anywhere from 10-15%. Do i need a prescription for this or how do i obtain a higher grade if you reccommend it?

any other ideas would be greatly appreciated....

I guess i should also say i seem to notice some improvement. couple new hairs i know i've never had before have appeared in my recieded (sp) area. (when i say a couple i literally mean a couple ha like less than 5).... but i also just noticed a couple weeks ago loads of thin blonde hairs all over my crown that i'm unsure if they existed before or not... i've never noticed them before so could these be new?

ok. seen that a few people viewed my thread but no responces. maybe it was too long of a post. Mostly i just want to know, How do i get these small blonde hairs that have come in (think everyone calls them 'vellus' hairs) to start growing thicker with colour and density??... is there a certain product that will help with density and colour?

Hey there
From being around the forum for a while it seems that once a day intake of finasterade of about 1mg is more than enough for hairloss, your twice a day dosage is too much

also, I suggest you start on 5% minoxidil, don't worry too much about the higher percentage ones, only move to those after you have tried the 5%

the nizoral shampoo is great!

I do not suggest you try dutasteride, unless you see no results on those three drugs after usage for about 2 years
