@Mrturkle,

I get my finasteride from inhousepharmacy.biz

Also use the rogain foam(mornings) and 5% liquid(evening)

You should be fine taking finasteride....side effects are not that common and even if you do expereince some you can lower the dose.Just think you may recover your receded temples! :woot: Goodluck!!

@peapoddy, thanks pal - I went to the dermatologist yesterday who basically said to just be using regaine foam at the minute at night, as he said Id really only be a norwood 1! He didnt advise using finasteride at this stage.

Hi, I'm no expert on how creatine may effect hair but all I can say is I've been using it for years now and it's been fine...

If your on finasteride or some type of DHT blocker then I don't see a problem!

Yeah I know a few people who take that Jack stuff. They swear by it before working out. For me personally, I just have a strong coffee pre- workout which works for me and is cheaper!

I wonder if the creatine maybe stops you getting some side effects

hey peapoddyyou never answered my question, haha. sorry but im real curious. how long did it take you after you started on propecia before you noticed that you werent losing anymore hair in the shower?

and also, if i do try propecia, what do you think of me first trying .5 mg per day instead of 1 mg? one reason because im scared of the side effects, and two because i only weigh 130 lbs. Perhaps the less you weigh, the less you'd have to take? embarrased to say that after seeing the kind of shape your in but i've always been thin, cannot help it. :(

anyone elses opinions on this are more than welcome. thanks

Hey soop2,

Well i never noticed shedding EVER.. just the fact my hair was getting really thin over the years!

I've also not had any noticable shed on finasteride soo far .I was using rogain/minoxidil for a couple of months before i started finasteride.In those few months my hair was def improving but when i added the finasteride i got a HUGE improvement ..soo the combination did the world of good for me!

Yeah why not start at 0.5mg if you really that worried about side effects.You can always bump it up to 1mg later on.....goodluck!!!

Thats the stuff Ori83!!

Its great quality and tasting in chocolate flavour.I sometime's use with other foods like mixing with my porridge or making protein chocolate brownies :woot:

Order some creatine & L Glutamine

http://www.myprotein.com/UK/products/cr ... onohydrate

http://www.myprotein.com/uk/products/l_glutamine1

Just add in 1 scoop of each with your protein shake post workout(will help with recovery)

hey, thanks for the input peapoddy, omw becoming like you (in my dreams ... lwal)

ps1 i ordered the protein, but i wont be eating that right away, i want to work gradually... but shipments otw nonetheless...

ps2 have you guys seen the Spartakus Gods of the Arena series.. these guys are FIT! i've downloaded their work out routine, very intense, and amazing they worked with only their body weight and one dumbbell (ofc not planning to jump in to that anytime soon, maybe 1-2 years from now)

Get a new e-mail and tell Facebook what happened, explain all the situation. I suspect they will figure out that you were hacked and help you out.

Hotmail MIGHT help you, I dont know what their customer support is like :-\ Try your best to get in touch with someone either on the phone or online to look into the situation for you.

I've had to stop using the liquid I was having WAYYYY too many flakes when brushing my hair or even if I touched it...I didn't want people thinking I had horrible dandruff problems.

Also after I used 1.5 to 2 ml it would start itching, I think it dried my scalp out or something too.

I just bought foam a few days ago and started using it two nights ago. Just applied some this morning. Seems difficult to apply if your hair is 2 inches long or more but I'm working on it, it doesn't itch or flake.
