    Propecia/finasteride - 10 Year Update

    Hello all... I started posting here around 14 years ago. I was taking propecia since May 2005. I've been re-reading my old posts from 10 years ago here ('m 36 now)..Absolute cringe. I'm sure others here of a similar vintage will understand what I mean when I say I'd love to sit down and have a...

    Probable side effects - slow discontinuation.

    Hi, this is more a sounding off, and I would appreciate any advice about what anyone here thinks might be going on here, and what else they might suggest. I've been taking propecia 1mg daily for about 5 years now. I have noticed over some time the lack of morning erections, sometimes watery...

    Young, balding,down,single? Go to Med school. Hear me out.

    Yes Dudemon, that's obviously exactly what I was suggesting [insert 'sarcmark' here]. I know it was a long post, you might have missed the parts about it giving perspective, focus, helping people, helping you learn the science behind your own probs including hairloss, the rationale behind how...

    Young, balding,down,single? Go to Med school. Hear me out.

    This is just a reaction to a lot of posts I've read here over the years from young guys suffering with hairloss in late teens early 20s who don't know what to do with their lives and think it's all the end of the world. One bit of advice I might humbly proffer to anyone young here suffering...

    Life changing success with Finasteride! PICS

    Interesting, I've got a similar pattern of hair loss and had similar results with finasteride to you brent (in terms of the hairline from side and front pics), and I style it the same way to cover up receding temples. Also the product you use and how you style it is quite important. medium length hair...

    For those on finasteride: When was your worst shed?

    I'm going through a pretty rough one right now, and for some reason it's affecting my sides a lot more which is not good. I do think it'll grow back, but this is looking quite bad right now :( I've been on propecia about 4 years, all the sheds have come back but this looks like actual receding...

    The Israeli–Palestinian conflict

    Re: DERSHOWITZ: Israel's Policy Is Perfectly 'Proportionate' I think the human shields thing is no longer a valid excuse seeing as it has now come out that Israel LIED about why they hit the UN schools. They initially said Hamas were firing from within the UN school but are now attributing to a...

    Good national health care possible?

    Not true, the "average" i.e salaried (non-partner) GP probably earns around 50-60k, only partners who have a stake in running the practice would be earning upwards of 100k and partnerships are becoming hard to come by now because there are so many people qualifying and willing to work as...

    Is 26 too old to date an 18 year old (19 next week)?

    Well that's my question....just asking if there is much point entertaining the idea of taking things further with this girl I met a few weeks back in a club?? The problem is she's 18 and a fresher/freshman at uni, whereas i'm a 2nd yr doctor (resident i guess u'd call it in USA)! I just happen...

    Those ONLY on Propecia and who've had a Shed...

    I have been on propecia since May 2005, and I first noticed hairloss around Nov-Dec of 2004. Since then , I've noticed I *always* get a shed more or less around that time when I first noticed it (winter)...last year was nearer the end of november but it's hit me a bit earlier this year (ie now...

    2 years with Propecia (since May 2005): [updated with pics]

    I started propecia in May 2005 and also use nizoral shampoo once or twice a week. I'm happy with the overall thickness of my hair, however in the past couple of weeks ive actually had a bit of a shed going on, with some noticeable thinning at the front, and my temples have receded quite a bit...

    2 years with Propecia (since May 2005): [updated with pics]

    hey guys, well thanks for the positive comments. Like I said, the pics aren't always the exact same conditions, if i take pics with my hair cut shorter, wet and all of it sticking up, it looks worse at the front still and you can see more scalp then, but overall at a medium ish length it looks...
