I have been using Proxiphen since late february of this year at the hairline and temple region. I have at least maintained, and never noticed any shedding. Due to financial trouble about a month ago, I became unable to spend the extra $107 that it costs for a vial. So I haven't used it in about a month, and I am pulling out hair every time I run my fingers through it, and noticing hair all over myself. It sucks, but I can't even begin to budget that into my finances. Unfortunately, the stuff works, but you need to sell drugs or rob old ladies in order to afford it.
