Speaking from personal experience, you might want to retake your photos using a "flash" rather than not. Although you hairloss will appear more evident with a flash, if your planning on using photos to measure your recovery, the flash will more easily "pick-up" the new regrowth on the digital...

It would do exactly the same thing to a non-male pattern baldness person as it would to a male pattern baldness person....it simply reduces the amount of DHT in the blood. Now, if you are afflicted with male pattern baldness that is very helpful because DHT kills hair. For non-male pattern baldness people, they would experience the side-affects, if any, like any...

Well, I've made it six months. I've kept up with my photos and if you care to click on the link below...I've made some progress. Things have slowed down (the growth) quite a bit over the last 3 months compared to the first. I may just be too far gone to really see a huge difference...although I...

**bing**bing** "medication time, medication time" **bing**bing**

It's not likely that any insurance would cover the cost of Propecia as this ailment you are attempting to treat is considered to be "cosmetic". For example, my insurance did not cover my Lasik eye surgery...but they do cover the cost of eye exams and glasses/contact lenses. The insurance would...

Yeah, yeah, yeah

I'm using BIG 3 and my hair responded very quickly... my hairline was just about gone when I started in November 2003. I had lots of "wispy" little white hairs (almost invisible) all over my scalp that now have turned into thick(er) hair. (still a LONG way to go..and I am very doubtful if my...

So, in other words, your theory is that the hair in your eyebrows are affected by DHT thus causing them to grow coarse and wild, (like mine) and by applying the spironolactone there, it would cause them to grow more or less like "normal"? So, you postulate that when someone applys the spironolactone to their...

I'm not sure where all of this is coming from, but, if what I read is what Dr. Lee said then, if you begin to recede at the temple region and "stop" it there, it won't progress any further? Kinda like a "If this, then that" statement..."if your hair is falling out, the hair immediately "around"...

Sorry, I side with sonic, the test levels are higher because, as in the study you have listed there, shows the "serum levels" are higher...they determine the test level by taking a blood sample...not by hooking up machinery to your testicles to determine your how much test is being produced. The...

I believe they are working today on changing the structure of viruses, that if they are injected into humans, will "rewrite" the function of certain cells. The viruses "hijack" the cell and tell it what to do. In third world locations, they are even considering releasing genetically altered...

Ahh...didn't you mean "taking finasteride is going to 'maintain' that process"? :?

Anyone curious?

Excellent regrowth. The "front" is always tougher to grow back, probably due to the fact that those follicles are most sensitive (more damaged?) to the effects of DHT. Don't give up!

No, it will not. Even taking Propecia daily does not drop your DHT levels to zero..the levels change throughout the day. Your DHT is a slow hair-follicle-killing-machine...certainly having "normal" levels for a while will not help your hair loss, but it won't cause a massive exodus of all your...
