A year and a half later... I've taken Avodart and used Minoxidil every day since my last post. What do you guys think? Better or worse?

Hi thanks for your help. My latest photos are as follows: I'm still shedding loads of hair. Looks terrible from above.

Hi, things were going really well on the Dutasteride/Minoxdil 5% and my hairdress even commented how thick my hair had become (not knowing I was on anything)...until about a month ago when I began shedding a very large amount. My hairline is now at it the worst it's ever been. I did experience...

Hi, It's been almost 2 months since I started Avodart, Minoxidil and Nizoral shampoo. This is my hair when I started. This is it now. Has it got worse? Should I be worried?

Hi, I saw my doctor. He initially wasn't going to prescribe any of the three but after some pushing he prescribed Minoxidil in the form of Regaine for Men 5%. He warned me it would affect my blood pressure though so to be careful. He would not prescribe finasteride/propecia as it would...

I've had an online consultation this morning with Pharmacist and they recommended "Avodart (Dutasteride)" instead of Propecia (finasteride)...which should I use?

Hi, Firstly I should mention my Granddad was completely bald apart from the sides at aged 22. I am almost 27. My Great Granddad on my Grandma's side had a high hairline from an early age but a full head of hair when he died aged 92. I do not know my biological father. My original hairdresser...
