With which one of the big three to start with ???

[Nickyarf]

Hello, I am norwood 2 (temples but not the vertex) and i recently bought on the internet:
-Propecia (Fincar).
-minoxidil Kirkland 5%.
-Nizoral 2%.
I dont have them yet.
I fear the initial shedding of the Minoxidil and i heard that it is better to start with propecia.
Is it true? and what would be the best delay?
Do you have any tips for a newbie using the big three?

Thank you.

Begin using Nizoral immediately.

After 1 Week begin using Propecia, if not immediately.

Then it's kind of hard to judge when to use Minoxidil, many people just begin them all together. But, a shed will occur from both if you have proggressive male pattern baldness, so you could begin 6 months later after you've seen what Propecia would do for you. Anyways, I wouldn't worry about it too much, If I were you I would just jump on all of them at the same time.

jumping on all three will give you peace of mind that you are doing everything you can to prevent future loss
will a good chance of regrowth

but alot of people just use finasteride and nizoral and add minoxidil later if necessary

i myself started the big three almost at the same time

finasteride is the daddy of them all, the other 2 are just side dressing.

Start with nizoral and finasteride and see how you get on. Add min later if you want to / need to.

That way you can tell what you respond to and wha you don't respond to

It may take 6-12 months before you start seeing results from nizoral and finasteride though. That's a long long wait....So I would suggest the following:

If you want immediate regrowth: Start with finasteride and nizoral, and add minoxidil immediately as it is the KING of all growth stimulators.

If you are looking for just maintenance: Start with finasteride and nizoral... see how it goes for 6-12 months and then think about adding minoxidil.
