Pereira's story (5years, 7months)

Age
- Hairloss start: 20
- Treatment start: 22
- Current age: 23

Treatment
- Propecia (at morning)
- Minoxidil 5% (once a day at nigth)
- Shampoo alphactif everyday (pre-wash)
- Nizoral everyday

Description
I started with this regimen and went from almost baldie to a perfect state. Some month later, decided to give a try to foam, was better to apply and because everybody was telling good things about it. So I switched liquid to foam and since that I lost the progress that i had and my hair became horrible. I quitted foam and I'm back to liquid minoxidil again

Where are you going bald at? Maybe with a shaved head its hard for me to tell. At least you are doing something about it early though. Good for you

upon further review i can see the light areas vs. the dark areas now. My original thinking was that it was just the way the light was hitting the top of the head. Stick to your regimine and best of luck...come back with updates sometime

Hi brother. I recognize Minocalve and Crescina. You must be Portuguese ;) .

I use Tricovivax Minoxidil 5%. Good stuff. Also i use once a day at night. But sometimes i use Alphacad from Item Labs.

I started finasteride 4 months and half and i got good maintainance. Be cool with it. Propecia is great product.

Get on Nizoral but I would drop the minoxidil to see how you respond to Propecia first. Otherwise you will never know and will have used your big gun at to early an age. Look at somebody like Jayman. He is not using minoxidil yet.

I don't have photos of hair grown out here, had my hair cutted because at this stage it was impossible to have bigger. Really bad looking, 90% hairloss noticeable, so i assumed the problem and have the pros of better aplication of minoxidil and shampoo
I've done what u said.. cutted today 9mm at top, 6mm sides..
still notice the hairloss, but it minimizes the difference between hairloss areas and the "healthy" areas so i'm stick to this haircut until regrowth :wink:

Pereira,
Your hairline still looks like it is intact just diffuse. I'd go with propecia for sure since a lot of the thinning is in your crown. Best of luck!
