    Three weeks in and already considering quitting.

    I've been using Proscar 1.25mg for three weeks and nizoral 2% for six weeks now and I have to say it's completely destroyed my libido in these past two weeks. My erections are becoming very weak and I have ejaculated once in the past fourteen days. Even then it seemed half-cocked, as it were...

    I haven't had an erection for three days. Been on 1/4 Proscar for 2 weeks now and this is really starting to worry me. I have started seeing a girl a few times and I actually said that she shouldn't come back to mine last night, for in my own mind I thought I wouldn't be able to get it up...

    Really? Ok, I'll get some of that in this week. Starting to get fewer erections already which is worrying, but then again it could just be me thinking about it too much. I do appreciate that conditioner advice as I think my bog standard coconut oil shampoo isn't the best post-nizoral. Will...

    I started on Proscar 1.25mg a few days ago and have been alternating my shampoos between Nizoral 2% and Thicker, Fuller Shampoo/Nourkrin on the other days. My hairline seems to have gone back in just a couple of weeks pretty much from the left temple pushing the whole line back, and forthe...

    Dissolving Proscar...

    I have just bought my first five month's supply of Proscar and need advice on how I am going to take it. I haven't got a pill cutter as of yet but I have heard that you can dissolve it in alcohol and take the proper 1mg a day this way, effectively saving money and having an excuse to have a...

    Nizoral

    I have been using Nizoral for about 3 weeks and my hair seems to have thinned slightly more. I am going on 1/4 Proscar hopefully this weekend without speaking to a doctor about it, having bought some off the internet. I am just interested to find out what is recommended for shampoo on the...

    I've been on Nizoral for a week and at times my head has been irritating all day and others it's been fine. Am still only using coconut oil conditioner after the nizoral. I ahve also just ordered my first batch of Proscar 5mg from inhousepharmacy so I guess this is the stepping stone to either...

    Any conditioner in particular? I have some bogstandard conconut oil conditioner, but I'd rather get it right. Need to get on the finasteride as soon as possible but the last time I went to the doctor she just said no, practically. Any way around it? UK posters can help me out here...

    I washed my hair with Nizoral 2% last night. When I looked in the mirror after with my hair soaked through and slicked back it looked the thinnest it has ever been. Even at the top it looked in parts as though I could see through it, almost. I'm now considering shaving my head. I did try to...

    Where to Buy Nizoral 2%???

    I just picked up some Nizoral over the counter at my chemist which has "ketaconazole 20 mg/g" on the side.. Is this 0.2%, and would it be effectively useless for what I am using it for?

    I've looked around this forum and saw a thread lower down with some people saying that Nizoral thinned their hair out. Can this really be one of the possible negative effects of the shampoo?

    I will get some Nizoral after work. I really do thoroughly appreciate your help on this. What is the difference between the percentages of Nizoral? Also, are there any sides? It almost seems too good to be true. Is there really a difference between thinning hair at the temples and a...

    Q: In order to properly diagnose you, I have a few questions. First off, is your hairloss accompanied by any scalp itch in the affected area? If so, is it intense, or just an ambient irritation? If you do itch, is it in the receeding front, or in the potentially diffusing areas on top? A: My...

    I noticed about a year ago that my hairline had gone back at the age of 22. It worried me for a while, and now a year later the thinning (on my left temple especially) is getting silly. When I come out of the bath/shower with my hair slicked back, the recession is depressing. I really don't...
