Enden Great stuff. How'd this come across your radar? I'd be interested to know how much you mixed up, and how well it stayed mixed. I'd love to be able to mix up larger batches than the current weekly mixes. Also, and perhaps most importantly, does this show some action on Aventis' part...

never had any problem. And they ship from Hong Kong, so it's a bit different than from, say, a random chemical manufacturer in the mainland. Doesn't seem weird to me that they mail Indian sources (Dr. Reddy, etc) from Hong Kong. They also have AUS and NZ sources. Not saying it couldn't be, but...

Yep. I did. 4 Years on finasteride, then went to dutasteride once a day, every day, for a long span (3-4 years). Was fine until the end when I got the same thing as you. Good news was that I switched back to finasteride and didn't lose anything cosmetically in the hair department. Snapshots still look the same...

Care to chat a bit more about s5 experience? I know it's not as powerful as RU, but those who use it speak rather highly of it. Doesn't seem to replace an internal like RU can but I'd still like to know long-term reports with it. Especially as I travel a lot and can see the RU being a bit...

I haven't checked the boards with anything but a cursory glance in a few years. I would never have guessed that in that time, RU would go from being a virtual unused/unattainable treatment to being chatted about more than spironolactone with, apparently, a solid and vocal user base with some veteran...

also a possibility. RU+minoxidil for a few more years of happy follicles?

No takers on this eh? I've read anecdotes here and elsewhere that, at least with finasteride, quitting may lead to a shed but you're not going to drop below baseline (whatever that definition is) for upwards of a year. That is, it takes a few hair cycles to kick everything back into the...

Definitely would be interested in updates here. Sorry to bump the thread, but I think 10+ years on finasteride worth of experience is a very interesting topic.

Hey Guys, Any longer term posters with success maintaining with just topicals? Say, S5 (topical spironolactone), minoxidil, and a dab of Tricomin in there? Long-term propecia user here who has been scaling back their dosage for a long time, (down to .25mg/day finasteride) with no cosmetic changes. I'm sure a...

Hey hope that Doctor appt went well. But don't get down on yourself. You will get over it and it really can recede (no pun intended) into the background once you choose a treatment. Seriously your loss is really really limited already and I've seen just in my small friend circle (anecdote alert)...

Hey Johnn Doe, Don't usually post anymore but figured I'd throw my 2 cents in, seeing as how you look like you're in the same spot as me, 10+ years ago. So, good news, I still have my hair. Wish I had gotten on here sooner too. I had about 2 years where people told me that it was just a...

Not to rain, but the acell route did not work miracles in other trials. http://www.drrobertjones.com/acell.html lListening to the Kobren interview via the link even Doctor Cooley doesn't sound as off-the-hook excited as the newsie headline (go to 12:25 in the interview). Another piece of the...

Just found out that my shipment is stalled at customs and/or lost. Menspharma is on it but takes a bit. In the meantime, anyone inside the US selling leftovers or quitting Eucapil as part of their regimen? Just checking if I can scrounge up some leftovers in the meantime... Thanks in advance...

but you're not going in ignorant...you know you're taking a/the drug. Or, in a stricter sense of "nocebo response", you know you are taking any pill, which could be a sham pill, which you associated with negative responses. That is the "nocebo" responses; the increase in intensity of negative...

Thanks OldBaldy...but still as silly mistake. I used these message boards as a crutch and just asked the question like a bad student instead of sitting down for a few more minutes with pen and paper and thinking clearly. It's a mistake I hate when others make, so I hate it doubly so when I do...
