Hairlosstalk,
Gonna rant here for a sec. The propecia ad shows two men growing back substantial hair IN THEIR TEMPLES AND FRONTAL HAIRLINE. The two guys in the ad ARE NOT USERS OF PROPECIA. Propecia.com has pics of actual before and afters and they are NO WHERE NEAR that dramatic.
Hairlosstalk, that is the one propecia ad that infuriates me because its misleading men to thinking that they will grow even temporal hair back and THEY WONT. Ive taken propecia for over TEN YEARS. I know what its capable of.
I got a small hair transplant a decade ago because of a propecia brochure (back before the net) and the HUGE lies that a salesman (or senior medical associate who tries to present himself as a Doctor) told me about this drug and how "No one will ever lose hair again once they get on it". It was the biggest mistake of my life.
I know the big three works Hairlosstalk. I TAKE THE BIG THREE plus folligen.
I'll take the time to enlighten you on what a very nice Doctor told me about propecia however............basically on its own propecia will increase hair counts for about a five year period in the vertex and mid anterior regions. It doesnt produce new hair in the front and seems to do nothing for the temporal region. After year five, hair counts no longer increase but begin to decrease very slightly for the rest of the mans life. He's about where he started in 12-14 years. He will still be baldning, but much slower than he was before for the rest of his years unitl he is finally bald in older age. The pics on propecia.com are proboably of men in the first five years of usage, before the thinning begins again.
Its not advising propecia that uspets me. I'd advise it too, but that ad is dishonest and misleads men on what they can expect, especially of the norwood 5 guy becoming about a NW2. No WAY THATs gonna happen to anyone.
