Hi I just wanted to share my experience on minoxidil. 24 yrs old now (started losing hair around 19, 20 years old.) I began using minoxidil in late nov. 2002 and it has more or less improved my hairline and overall thickness, actually had wonderful results all the way through the 6th or 7th month and then began noticing more fall out and “flatter†feeling hair. At that point I wanted to add some more weapons to keep the thickness minoxidil created, so I started Saw Palmetto and Lysine, Saw Palmetto didn’t seem to help because at about the 1 year 3 month anniversary of starting minoxidil, I noticed more thinning on the top of my head where there was no thinning before. Yet, I still had the little vellus hairs on my hairline that you get with minoxidil, but overall hair started looking worse. In Jan 04 I noticed more thinning on top of my head where there was no thinning before, I panicked and started on Propecia 2 ½ months ago, and here I am today, so far the results with adding Propecia have been mixed. . sometimes hair looks improved, sometimes it looks worse. I’ve been a long time visitor(first time posting) to this site and all you experienced guys have helped me through the ups and downs. All in all my hair looks better than it did two years ago and that’s all I can ask for I guess.
