After about 10 years, I tried avodart as an add on, just once a week and then actually everyday in replacement of finasteride but didn't really see much difference. I got my avodart on holidays in Spain easy in the chemist but when ran out my Irish Doctor back home would only prescribe finasteride, so went back on...
I took 0.75mg quantity of finasteride per dose per night in my minoxidil
That is a low dose and I got horrible sides
I would add I was getting incredible results, never really got great results on oral but on topical finasteride my hair was thickening so much and my sparse crown filling in
Now balls and dick are bigger, especially my penis when flaccid
Semen quality
Penal sensitivity increased
Mood and my sleep, spent most of my life adult life accepting I just had bad sleep pattern, completely improved when off the drug.
Also bloating, my face is lot trimmer and I look fitter...
Yep!
And being off it one year made me realise that even on oral Finasteride I had sides that I was unaware aware of, I had been on it for practically my whole adult life.
And after what the topical version did to me it made me realise in my opinion the drug is poison.
And I certainly don't...
Be careful, this is one of the only topics I reply to in this section because I would not want anyone to go through the horrible situation I did.
Long story short, I was on oral finasteride for the guts of 20 years and last summer was thinking of quitting but decided to try topical finasteride and I endured...
Such an informative reply, thank you.
I had parked the idea of trying a hair system but now looking into it again after reading your post.
Is the sides and back blade #4 to blend in to the top?
I spent best part of 20 years on oral Finasteride.
Didn't really get any bad sides but didn't get any thickening of hair
April 2020 I decided I wanted to come off oral and perhaps even finasteride altogether but decided I would transition over to topical and see how I would fear
Absolute...
First of all thanks very much for the reply and that video is the best example of a short cut look I have ever seen.
Secondly can I ask you as you seem very experienced Baldbearded from reading this forum, if I understand you right on the clippers aspect.
If you had two people with an out of...
I am trying to establish if I set out on a hair system journey can I manage it myself.
I want a simple short hair style, trying to keep it as simple as possible without having to use a pair of scissors.
I want to try just use a clippers.
I have read on this & other fora that generally on top...
And I don't believe it is necessarily a systemic issue as I used minoxidil as the vehicle in the first 12 weeks and got sides so used a liposome carrier final two weeks experiment and got loss of muscle mass.
My GP ended up sending me for a brain MRI to check my pituitary gland, thankfully came...
Be very careful considering this.
I was on oral Finasteride for years & years, my two sides were body thinning hair all over and some bloating.
Last summer I tried topical Finasteride using two different vehicles ranging from .25mg to 1mg per dose and I got horrendous sides.
I will note using...
I was on oral Finasteride for years & years with not much results but stayed in it
April last year changed over to topical finasteride, started on 1mg per dose and settled on 0.5mg per dose. Dose once a day
After weeks had considerable thickening up of my existing hair and new hairs sprouting in my...
So just to expand a little more!
Below is the style I would like to achieve but I notice this person's bio hair at the top ridge of his sides and back bio hair would be longer than a blade 8
Could he achieve his look blading #8 on the very top part of his sides and back bio hair
So basically I have been off Finasteride and Trinov since last July and currently using concealers which I feel still give me sometime until I will have to make a decision to either shave down or try the hair system route. Last summer I decided after years on oral Finasteride to try the topical...
When I started using a liposomal vehicle, I continued to have stiff neck, had this using minoxidil as a vehicle.
On liposome, I used three different doses, .5mg, .25mg and 0.1mg
On .5mg got red face, felt groggy within an hour and later in the day just felt disinterested in everything. Still...
