Oh, I didn't mean just reducing the dosage, I meant actually splitting the pill into parts, so that the time release coating is removed from roughly 1/2 the surface area.

That's what I'm doing, and I've been doing it for around 8 months. However, my pharmacist said it might not be such a good idea, as it messes with the timed release of the medication. Meaning, that while it will be effective for a period, it may not be effective for the whole 24 hours like a...

Don't you think you're being a little pessimistic? Why not try them as intended? There's a good chance you won't see any sides. And even if you do see sides, you can go ahead and cut back with your plan.

All I think about is hairloss, day and night. As hard as I try to keep my mind off it, I find any and every excuse to do something that involves walking past a mirror so I can stop and gaze at my hairline for 5 minutes. I've been on finasteride and luxiq for about a month, and nizoral for about 4...

I'm going to give up wanking for lent, just to see how things go haha

Hi all, been a while since I've posted. Need some help with a few subjects. Well, I'm planning on buying some 5% minoxidil foam tonight, but I was wondering about a few things. Is it safe to apply it to the hairline? The bottle specifically states don't use it anywhere but the crown. Are...

You guys are a great help, thanks a bunch ot everyone who has contributed. I know that doctors are a great source for information, but I feel like I can get better advice from you all since you're all either going through or have gone through what I'm experiencing and are veterans in ways to...

Norwood 2 doesn't necessarily mean balding though right? Almost all adult males receive a mature hairline. Bill Clinton being among one of the exceptions, who retained a juvenial hairline.

Thanks very much guys, any input is GREATLY appreciated. So, with a bit of luck, and sufficient doses of minoxidil and finasteride (whether they be OTC, off-brand, name brand, what have you), I can almost surely maintain the hair I have now, and possibly regrow some of the hair I've lost?

Thanks for the info. Every time I try to find a doctor for it, I just get recommended for a consultation at Bosley, and quite frankly they're no help. The mapping is a technique invented by Dr. Rassman of the New Hair Institute. What it does is take a microscope view of your scalp in places...

Oh, also some additional info. I appear to be a progressive Norwood II, with extensive shedding occuring. I generally find about 20-30 hairs in my towel after I shower, and every time I run my fingers through my hair I usually pull my hand out with 2-3 hairs stuck to it. I don't want to even...

Hi, to start things off, I'm a 19 year old male in the Cincinnati area. Recently, my hairline seems to be receding quite quicker than I anticipated. On my dad's side, all the men have full heads of hair. However, on my mother's side, all of the men are at the horseshoe stage, and started...
