I have read a couple places that there was a small study that the flax lignan SDG which is found in flaxseed oil slowed the progression of hairloss. I was wondering where I could go to get a flax lignan supplement with SDG in it. I tried drug stores and they had flaxseed oil, but there was no...

i doubt that is the beginning of thinning, however if you want to be sure, go to a derm. if it is the beginning, get some propecia, if not forget about it. either way you'll be fine

that is definitely the beginning of male pattern baldness. you have caught it very early. you still have a ton of hair left. if i were you i WOULD get on propecia, my brother and i are both on it and we're pretty young too 22 and 19. we both have a lot of hair left, i just wish i had gotten on it when i was 18...

anybody have tips for how much and how to style with the garnier surfer hair paste. i got some and it works ok, but from the sounds of this thread i am probably doing something wrong cause it seems it should be working better

if you want to have the greatest chance of regrowing i believe you should use finasteride, it can help minoxidil work better. plus i know you say you're not interested in maintenance but if you have male pattern baldness, then somewhere down the line things may get worse, so i would try and maintain while it will be...

you said your loss is diffuse but it looks to me like your only main problem is at the vertex. i think your hair everywhere else looks like it has a thick texture. i guess i can't know for sure cause it may used to have been thicker but it seems like the only large amount of dht damage is in the...

makes sense. thanks for the reply

nice results man, i bet keeping it short makes it easier to apply the topicals. i'm on your regimen minus the spironolactone. do you think it's been helping you out? or would you attribute most of success so far to finasteride and minoxidil?

I have no personal experience with Xandrox, I just use reg minoxidil 5% twice a day for temples and once a day for crown. In my opinion you might want to hold off on using the 15% if you are having good results with 5%. But its up to you. I do think they say to only use Xandrox 15% once a day and...

quick question lawstudent, you said you'd been on dutasteride a little over a month with nice results so far. i am going to stick with finasteride for at least a number of years as i have just started to lose my hair. my question was what is your dosage of dutasteride? i remember reading that a large dose of 2.5...

congratulations man, i think the Propecia is helping me too, not as much as you though. i'm jealous haha

i rotate between t-sal, t-gel and nizoral. i try to only use each twice a week. any other times i wash my hair i use a gentle shampoo, cause t-sal, nizoral etc are powerful. as for using them at the same time, i wouldn't know if that is smart because it seems like that's a lot of powerful stuff on...

thanks for the replies everyone, i'm gonna order some tricomin pretty soon. hopefully it will add to my regimen that already seems to be working.

i was wondering too about the back and sides. it seems to me that a lot of people do lose hair or at least the hairs miniaturizeon the back and sides. i am diffuse and my hair is a little thicker on the back, and pretty thin on the sides, i still have a ton up top but without treatments i would...

i was thinking of adding tricomin spray to my regimen and had a couple quick questions. 1. how long does a bottle last about? 2. should i apply it before or after minoxidil? 3. can anyone say whether they feel like it has helped them? thanks
