Thanks for the feedback guys! I will apply minoxidil after Proxiphen then. Makes sense to apply the "best" (and most expensive) first.

I am about to start Proxiphen and was wondering if it is best to apply it before or after minoxidil? (I will apply both in the morning after showering). Since Proxiphen is a cream, I am a bit worried that it will hinder the absorption of minoxidil (if the minoxidil is applied afterwards) - or is this ok too?

Thanks for the info, Harie!

Dr. Lee has said that it's fine to apply emu oil right after spironolactone, so I was wondering if this will be ok for revivogen too? It would certainly make my scalp happier..

Thanks a lot for the link! :) Zix sure sounds interesting. I am going to do some research on it. If the Revivogen shedding doesen't stop soon, I might give it a try!

Thanx for your input science-jay! I would love to agree with you beaner (I didn't believe it myself at first), but it became very obvious after a while (even my doctor agreed). I must be extremely sensitive (can't use Propecia for the same reasons), and the Retin-A two times daily must have...

I started using Revivogen on 14/03/06, and started shedding a lot about a week into the treatment - this shedding has not stopped. After about 6 weeks of use, I got gyno symptoms (puffy nipples, lower libido and a very annoying burning in the chest). The same thing happened to me after 2...

Yeah, it can do that (and minoxidil makes it worse). Be sure to massage the shampoo well into the scalp - it should help.

Trust me, it's the spironolactone!

It’s sad that there are so few studies on lower doses of finasteride... I was thinking about trying 0,25 mg finasteride, but the more I look into it, the more it looks like the side-effects are nearly the same as on 1 mg, and I am sure this has to do with what Bryan pointed out; the dose-response curve of...

I can't remember now (been reading too much on too many forums lately) - but I may have got mixed it up (still a newbie), so take it with a big grain of salt! :)

Sad to hear about the sides on 0,25 mg - how long have you been taking it? Gyno is serious stuff (my nipples are still enlarged, 6 months after I quit), and it surely is a big difference in how people tolerate this drug. Funny how some can take 5 mg (or more) and be fine, while others get...

Thank you very much for your feedback Bryan - you sure know a lot about these things! :) There is another thing I was wondering about in the study.. It appears that the rise in scalp skin testosterone was bigger in the 0,2 mg dose? http://www.physics.upenn.edu/facultyinf ... index.html...

Need some help from the "experts" here... I've been using a multivitamin complex for a couple of months, and haven't thought much about what was in it - not smart... Here is the product: http://www.med-eq.com/html/forbrukerinfo/en_haar.htm Well, it contains extracts of: red clove, soybeans...
