If self delusion is the crutch you need to get through hair loss, then so be it.

Your hair follicles have been genetically programmed to shut down, and that is exactly what they are going to do. These drugs may slow the process down a little, but until medical science figures out how to reprogram your hair follicles, they are going to die.

Those drugs aren't going to save your hair. You are going to lose the battle with time.

The big 3 are: You chose the wrong father. You chose the wrong mother. You chose the wrong time to be born.

Absolutely, when your last hair has fallen out of your head, that's when you know Propecia is working.

Yeah, that's a big surprise. Minoxidil and Propecia are worthless crap. They stand as monuments to failed medical science.

I wonder if medical science isn't just chasing a red heron with DHT. DHT may just play a small part in the complex process of hair loss. Even if you got rid of 100 percent of DHT would it make much difference? Your hair follicles are genetically programmed to shut down, and that’s what there...

BruceLee wrote: I believe both of my statements are true. The fact that people are taking 4 or 5 other drugs for hair loss on top of Rogaine probably speaks to the effectiveness of Rogaine. Your hair follicles have been genetically programmed to shut down, and that's what their going to do...

mgdpublic wrote Mgdpublic I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but Rogaine and Propecia are not a cure for hair loss, they're not going to save your hair. These drugs may slow down the rate of hair loss, but eventually your going to loose the battle, because Rogaine and Propecia aren't...
