    Recommendations on the following 5% solutions

    Hey all, Like many of you, I am looking for a clear fast-drying/non-sticky minoxidil after the FDA put our beloved Dr Lee out of biz. Anyone have experience with the products below? http://www.amazon.com/Lipogaine-Men-Min ... 981&sr=8-1 http://www.amazon.com/Corvinex-Minoxidi ... 981&sr=8-8...

    Selling 15% minoxidil

    Hey all...Selling one unopened 15% minoxidil (+5% azelaic acid) from Perfect Image. I thought about trying it but decided to use 10%. Thanks to the nanny-state FDA :thumbdown2: protecting me from myself I'll be back to 5%, as my 10% ran out last night. Just PM me with any reasonable offer; I...

    Xandrox blues...

    Hey guys...a couple of questions... Been on 5% minoxidil for over 10 years. Good results. Been on Xandrox for around 8 years...same results but loved the fast drying...been basically maintaining since then. 1) First Dr. Lee shut down (Thanks, Nanny Government!!) and I was forced to find an...

    Loving life again!

    If Dr. Lee himself said that the products are exactly the same, I think we can trust him. He never steered his patients wrong in the past, why would he now? I think the itchiness of Perfect Image Solutions was mostly due to the 10% solution I am using. My scalp seems to be getting used to it...

    Stopped Minoxidil after 3 years and want to die! Help me...

    Legolas, In response to an above reply, I doubt the problem was due to a different type of minoxidil. minoxidil is minoxidil. What caused the shed is probably due to changing your use habits. Until you stopped using minoxidil regularly, the follicles were duped into staying in the growth phase, which is how...

    Yes! See below. Now I can go back to Xandrox Day & Night. The Perfect Image Solutions stuff was causing an itch storm!!! Just put in an order for a 4 months supply. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] Sent: Tue, 2 Aug 2011 11:05:06 -0700 Subject: Re: dr lee Dr. Lee...

    Thinking of trying 15% minoxidil. Advice needed

    I've thought about it, calmed down, and will stick with P.I.S. for now. Given the options, they seem the most legit unless one wants to go back to the Rogaine grease (without the benefit of azelaic acid as well!) I highly doubt that PIS are bogus, simply because compounding a simple...

    Thinking of trying 15% minoxidil. Advice needed

    Thanks guys. Can you recommend an alternative to PIS? Do you feel that their products are bogus and not really minoxidil? I hate to think that my loss of ground over the last few months was due to switching over to their products?!

    Thinking of trying 15% minoxidil. Advice needed

    Guys, Been on 5% minoxidil (w/ 5% azelaic acid) plus 1mg finasteride (brand Finpecia) since 2001 with excellent results; I basically maintained a NW1. However in the last few months I feel I may be losing some ground in the frontal area. It may also be stress related as Ive been dealing with a...

    Looking for Xandrox alternative (knew this day would come!)

    Upon attempting to order Xandrox 5% day and Xandrox 5% night from Dr. Lee after years of loyal business, I found he closed shop. I figured this day would come eventually, as all good things seem to come to end while the garbage never goes away. :( I do NOT want to go back to greasy Rogaine...

    9 year update

    Shma: No sides other than dandruff, but T-Gel took care of that. Thickandthin: I was concerned about some changes to my hairline and made an appointment with a dermatologist. He examined my scalp and within 3 seconds said "Yep, you're thinning". See yall next year. Best of luck to everyone here.

    8 year update

    I get the same question every year. I wish it was simply a mature hairline; I'd save a lot of cash. Both grandads are NW7s, so I always suspected it would happen to me as well. I vowed throughout my 20's to get on a regimen as soon as someone made a "Hey, you're losing your hair" comment (My...
