Well, since my hair isn't that bad, I'm sticking to one a day use of the minoxidil. Plus, a drugstore no-name kit here is on sale for like $40... for a month. That's pricey. Plus, it's a pain in the ***... LOL. I'm all familiar with weight loss. Dropped 18lbs so far anyways. I'm...

Thanks, JayMan. Well, I already bought minoxidil kit and have been using it for less than a week. Doesn't that also help with the thinning? I plan on asking the doctor for Proscar and cutting it up. But he's a dink (already getting a new doctor) so if he objects, then I'll just do a month...

Hi, guys. A month or two ago, a friend noticed by hair was getting thin on the crown. I thought it was due to not using product that day and it was the way it was parted. When I got home, I looked in the mirror... and yeah, it looked thinner than I remember. Hard to tell since we can't see...

FYI... the Men's Health section stated that the study found using 1 percent zinc pyrithione (Head & Shoulders) or 1 percent ketoconazole (Nizoral) slowed shedding by 10 and 17 percent respectively. It also showed regrowth by 7 and 5 percent. The researchers suspect it has to do with keeping...
