I cant say I actually HAD a prostate infection. I checked out fine in all my tests.
Its just felt like I had a really BAD UTI/prostate infection.

Ive read that RU mentioned elsewhere. What ecaxtly is it?

both of them are topical anti androgen, and it is believed that cb is more efective than finasteride but finding a good vehicle for it is a problem apparently, the only problem with them is that u ve to go full on breaking bad with these stuff, in case u dont watch breaking bad what i meant was that u ve got to preapare it @home. google ru58841 and cb-03-01 for further research on it. there is a guy (userid-hellouser) who is using cb currently, maybe u can ask him for more help. hope it helped. best of luck.


ps-since u cant take finasteride maybe go for more conventional topcial anti androgens like spironolactone or maybe revivogen.

ill see what rogaine foam and revivogen do. could have a hair transplant later on. im looking into CB as well, but im careful about stuff nothing supported by the FDA. RU isnt really an option since it can have the same sides as propecia. how i miss the days i would pop a pill in the morning and head off to university!

It's one of my biggest regrets in life that I didn't know about propecia when I was 21. I should have researched hair loss properly. My life could have been so much better with good thick hair.

I suffered from alopecia totalis so was recommended to propecia - used it for a year to no avail, my hair kept falling out! went to and from SO SO SO many different wig specialists and ended up with a human hair piece that has been non-surgically applied - what about you FredTheBelgian? Appreciate your interest :)

Huh? What stupid a**h** gave you propecia for alopecia totalis? propecia is for androgenic alopecia only. it inhibits dht which is responsible for the miniaturisation of hair follicles which only happens in Androgenetic Alopecia. no wonder it didn't help you! you were totally misguided!

Classic male pattern baldness is a bliss in the face of DUPA or other Alopecias screwing permanent zones.

Agreed! None are pleasant though :(

Classic male pattern baldness is pretty much treatable through transplants provided that the patient's expectations are realistic(framing face) but you are doomed in other extreme Alopecias.

Based on your screen name, are you a female? If so, you shouldn't have been on Propecia at all. :shock:
