    I've only been using it at night (1ml), though I'm thinking of trying it in the mornings, too, since it fits my schedule. I apply probably half of the ML to my hairline and the rest to my head, though I will probably start giving the rest of my head more attention in light of my apparent...

    Ha, I hadn't heard of them, so I had to look it up. You're right! For years, I tried to wear my hair so that my hairline was totally obscured (think Jim from the early seasons of the The Office), but about six months into starting these treatments, I decided to embrace the hairline a bit and go...

    Thanks. I don't have my ideal hairline or anything, but given that I started up with treatments more than six years ago, I guess I should be grateful that things seem to be at least maintained. I'm still on Propecia. I'll admit that I've had moments of questioning if it was worth it, but I know...

    Checking in again. Not much to report. I do feel like I'm probably maintaining in the front, though I've noticed an unpleasant change in the back. My issues have always been with the hairline and density. Recently, I saw a photo of me from behind and couldn't help but notice what looked to be...

    Hair transplant. If I went that route, FUE is definitely the way I'd go. Not really crazy about shaving my head, but I guess that would be better than the strip scar.

    I considered it when I was 21, going so far as to meet with a hair transplant doctor. I opted against it after seeing how lousy his own hair transplant and scar looked. After five years on the Big 3, I've accepted that I'm pretty much at my best case scenario of coverage. My biggest hang up about a hair transplant is the scar. I keep...

    So all in all, I guess I can't complain too much having been using these products for more than 5 years. The way I started out, I didn't know if I'd have much hair left on top of my head by time I turned 30. I turned 30 earlier this year and while I'll never have a really strong hairline or...

    Hey, everyone. OP here checking in after a three-year absence. I don't remember the password to my original account, nor do I have access to that email anymore, so I'm here with a new account. One thing I wish I'd see more of on forums such as this are chronic updates, even years later. My...
