Hi,
I am on propecia started last week and thinking of adding minoxidil 5% to the mix. I have thinning in the vertex where minoxidil is supposed to due its best work. I would like to see more thickness in that area but don't know if propecia alone will do the trick. Would prob order Dr Lees eventually but start off w/ Rogaine.
My concern is how risky is it to add minoxidil? If I don't see any regrowth in 6 months or so can I assume minoxidil is not working for me? The Rogaine box i have says after 4 months if I see no results I can quit. I guess I'm worried if I try it and it doesn't seem to work I would like to quit but afraid that somehow the remaining hairs are dependent on minoxidil and I would lose extra hair on the vertex. Also what are the chances are that minoxidil would just simply make my male pattern baldness worse off? It seems like there are some horror stories w/ minoxidil but don't know how isolated these cases are.
How :freaked2: should I be?
