Dr. Lee told me in a consultation that it needs to be applied everywhere there is thinning or receding.
Dr. Lee speaks very deliberately and carefully. This is why his advice is so valuable to all of us. I see this statement as making sure that people at least hit all the affected areas. Ensuring that some don't intentionally avoid them, while assuming dispersion will handle it. Wanting to optimize their chances of success. Maybe my skin is more moist than someone elses. Maybe dryer skin wont allow for such dispersion. His statement is akin to the Rogaine box which says Rogaine is only for the top and back of the head. Playing it safe, sticking to the rules, saying only what they can legally say, highest chance for success, etc.

Should you keep it refrigerated?
Room temperature is fine, but refrigeration is always better. Keeps it more stable, I'm told. I refrigerate mine because it takes me months to go through three of them. I figure "why not".

Just got my order today and used it for the first time. Product smells fine, nothing disagreeable it. Not terribly easy to apply though... I need it on my front hairline and while it's thin, it's thick enough that even applying the spironolactone onto wet hair was tricky. Any tips?

From HairLossTalk.com

"Topical Spironolactone s5 Cream is very simple to apply. You just dab some on your fingertip and work it in around the base of the hairs on your scalp. All you need is a thin film, which instantly goes on clear, and should not affect your styling regimen. For thicker hair that you want to maintain, a good trick is to create a "part" in the hair and just smear a thin film up the part. The cream will absorb and spread at least a half inch in each direction over time. You can make just a few "parts" and get decent coverage without much hassle"

I'd up for giving this a try. Nothing against Dr Lees but if this stuff is cheaper, and has extra ingredients...

Do you deliver to the UK? And what's the price of delivery/delivery time?
