    How Long will Topical Spironolactone S5 Cream Last?

    Tore the label off my last (recently ordered) tub and can't remember the exact expiration date, but have a feeling it was sometime in 2014. How much of your noggin are you planning on smearing the S5 over? I apply it on just the front few inches (twice a day) and so one pot lasts three to...

    Hairs going lighter after using S5 Cream for 6 weeks. Good sign? Bad sign? Neither?

    Over two years on S5 cream and no change in colouration here. Are these lightened hair shafts the same diameter as before S5 usage or are they thinning?

    Starting spironolactone

    All I'd say to the original poster is be sure to give Propecia a decent chance before committing to another treatment. It's not unusual to see peak results from finasteride (or dutasteride) two years in... of course I have no idea when you started treatment - adding such info. to the 'view my regimen' tab is...

    Avodart

    Generic dutasteride. (Duprost) from unitedpharmacies.co.uk They also stock GSK Avodart but it comes at a price. In fact if you want Glaxo branded stuff I'm sure there are some cheaper options out there, but I've rather lost track of (i.e. forgotten) the assorted sellers on the web.

    Avodart

    As Captain Bertorelli would doubtless exclaim: What a mistake-a to make-a! Indeed. Suffice to say tackling hair loss is definitely one of those 'if I knew then what I know now...' sort of gigs. Such a pain to look back on time wasted with ineffective treatments - in my case 18 months on...

    if jesus went bald

    Caesar wore a laurel wreath to conceal his fast-balding pate... admittedly not an easy look to pull off nowadays.

    Avodart

    Hey Monty, just wondering how the Fluridil has turned out. Made any gains these past two years or was it introduced more to stub out ongoing loss... and if so, has it? My last regimen add was spironolactone cream - applied twice daily to the front for some 15 months now... it seems to have halted the...

    Best place to buy finasteride in the UK

    Never come across anyone who actually ships dutasteride from within our borders, so I think short of getting yourself a prescription you'll have to wait it out. Fortunately delivery from United tends to be pretty fast... and anyway a week or so without shouldn't have much effect. Slarti

    Got my dutasteride, but I have 29 finasteride tablets left. Finish them?

    Really just a random initial choice to go with Duprost over Dutas - both were/are the same price. As for why I went straight back onto Cipla's offering as soon as united got it back in stock, well simply a case of sticking with what you know works. No great intellectual reasoning I'm afraid.

    Got my dutasteride, but I have 29 finasteride tablets left. Finish them?

    Once briefly (for about a month) when unitedpharmacies.co.uk had no Duprost in stock. Apart from then I've been a Cipla man... except for all those years I used Glaxo's product.

    Topical spironolactone buy

    The higher order value of a three-packer gets it picked up by Customs - so VAT & R. Mail handling charge eat up any savings. Just did a quick calculation and I see there's practically no cost difference between ordering two lots of three, or three lots of two. The advantage with the three lots...

    Got my dutasteride, but I have 29 finasteride tablets left. Finish them?

    Basically a step up from Finasteride. finasteride was already going great guns on thickening my crown, but it could only slow the rate of frontal loss (I'm a diffuse thinner). Dutasteride finished the job up top - no more bald spot, hair back to pre-male pattern baldness levels - and managed to stem any further frontal...

    It's your standard trans-Atlantic deal: postie hands you the box some 10 - 14 days after ordering.
