Last time I was here we were at page 400+. Should I bother reading the last few pages to know where we stand or should I just come back in another year?

I stopped my hair loss regimen around January, I lost shitloads and shitloads of hair. I'm not sure if there's any point going back on meds now that I'm past the point of no return, any treatment now will just allow me to maintain a buzzcut and looking 'not that bad' as compared to slowly...

There was this guy here (forgot his name, that got banned I think) that used 30% minoxidil cream. He said he also used some sort of caffeine foam/lotion that worked quite well at increasing thickness of the existing hairs, but only that, and nothing else. I'll try to find later if I can find the...

What brand oral minoxidil are you using? I still have 200 pills of 5mg and 10mg Loxidil Forte. Will probably never use them again.

It went like this. I was finasteride (genuine Propecia from local pharmacy) for 5 months and losing my patience because I kept losing ground, at the time my hair still looking okayish and I didn't wanna get to the point where I have to buzzcut, so I pretty much dismissed all the horror stories...

I also tried dutasteride for 3 months and the sides were definitely worse than finasteride for me. Also I probably wouldn't feel too comfortable taking it for many years in the long run. Have you posted pics of your hair? Just wondering how bad is it.

I agree with what been said here. Your norwood is completely irrelevant as your actual hairline is pretty much intact, so as far as your hair line goes you're like a NW1-point-something. You're diffuse thinning in a very similar pattern to me, which is pretty much NW5. If left untreated, it's...

Yeah maybe... actually I been kinda lazy with the castor oil, haven't applied it for a week. It's been over 5 months I still have 24/7 head pressures/headaches and I had so many tests and check ups done me, even had MRI/MRA and everything came back fine. It's been about 4 months that I quit all...

I've started just for the fun of it applying stuff like castor oil among with a mixture of other oil 3-4 times a week, and I need a shampoo for rinsing it off or just for using it almost daily in general. I currently don't really have any decent shampoos. I'll probably skip keto shampoos for...

Used to take 2-3ml orally but I was also on finasteride+minoxidil along with other general supplements like biotin. I've recently started (after quitting everything) applying castor oil topically, I also mix it with a bunch of other oils to my liking such as coconut oil, olive oil, jojoba oil, argan oil. I...

Heya guys. So just wondering, for diffuse thinners, (NW4-5 diffuse thinner here) can azelaic acid do more harm than good? I got a decent stock of Kirkland minoxidil foam, and thought for the heck of it I ordered a bottle of DualGen-5 (no PG) which contains 5% minoxidil with 5% azelaic acid and...

Biotin/MSM/Castor oil are all good to be used in conjunction with another 'real' hairloss treatment. If you're counting on these alone to work for you for you might be in for a disappointment. Biotin helped my nails that's for sure, as far as hair growth, it's very hard to say. Some people claim...

Thanks for sharing, always appreciate the little details you share with us. Regarding zix, my zinc arrived from ebay but I'm still waiting for the B6 with the redirect shipping, should arrive soon. Are you ever worried about copper deficiency taking 50mg zinc a day? I also take zinc from time...

I'm glad to quit concealers. I was a slave to for 2 whole years, every single day, only me and my family knew about it. I couldn't even leave the house for a few mins without a concealer. Always checking the mirror to see if it got smudged off or anything like that. Always on the lookout if...

The initial shed is nothing compared to the shed you'll experience if you stop minoxidil after long term. Don't worry about the initial shed. What dose biotin are you taking? I don't think biotin will do much for your hair regardless.
