    Very Impressive Dermarolling And Minxodil Results - From Tressless

    It doesn't matter, it should just get to your scalp and not get stuck in your hair. Personally, I feel it's easier to do with liquid as the foam can get sprayed on your hair.

    Minoxidil Hair Shedding And Why You Should've Worry

    Thanks, I needed to hear this. I think Minoxidil has worked for me, at least in the beginning, as the area (right side on my head and where I part my hair) I tended to apply it more to seems to be thicker. But I feel like I have only been losing hair for the past 4 months. And it's almost always...

    Is This Bad Hairline For A 20 Year Old?

    Looks perfectly fine to me. Most men's hairline starts moving up as they mature. The main question is if you have a family history of baldness. If not, it's likely to be temporary but you should still visit a Dermatologist/Trichologist to get an experts opinion.

    Does Minoxidil/finasteride Work Equally Well For All Ethnicities?

    I don't get what you mean. I was simply wondering if I was wasting effort if it happens to be that certain ethnicities don't respond well to hair loss drugs (I am of Indian origin if that was not clear). I see from your regimen that you use a dermaroller once a week. Would you say that it has...

    Does Minoxidil/finasteride Work Equally Well For All Ethnicities?

    Thanks, at this point that's all I can do I guess. I am going to add Nizoral and dermastamping once a week to my regimen. I am taking some baseline pictures (after getting a crew cut) so that I can compare every few months.

    Does Minoxidil/finasteride Work Equally Well For All Ethnicities?

    I have been wondering if generally the efficacy of Minoxidil and Finasteride is lesser for Indian men. Can anyone tell me their experience with them? A more general question is if all ethnicities respond equally well (or not) to these drugs. For background I am in my early 20's with a family...

    Ongoing Finasteride Journey 1 Yr 7 Months

    Thanks for the update! I am in a similar situation in that my crown and mid-scalp region has a very small density while my hairline is still going strong. My hair by nature is a bit thick so I am able to cover it by combing. I used Finasteride religiously for a few months before stopping for a...

    Mild Gynocemastia On Finasteride Microdoses, Some Questions

    I never felt any tenderness but my nipples have become slightly puffy after 3 months of finasteride. Does that mean a gland can form without any physical sensation?

    Ranking Strengths Of Anti-androgen Regimens Based On Rates Of Gynecomastia

    The <1% for 1 mg finasteride seems hard to believe. I am a lean guy and developed mild gyno after 3 months of starting finasteride. Its been >2 weeks since I'v stopped but the sides haven't decreased.

    Theory About Propecia And Gynecomastia Prone Personn

    So if there's breast tissue underneath the area will feel sensitive and so no sensitivity probably means just fat tissue? If so that would be a big relief. I want to get back on finasteride as I think finasteride is more potent because it takes care of the root cause of hair loss. My hair fall...

    Theory About Propecia And Gynecomastia Prone Personn

    There is no irritation/pain. They just look a bit perky, so maybe its pseudogyno. I am sure its not in my head as I have always been lean. Thanks, I have stopped taking finasteride and am thinking of taking 50mg zinc tablets. Incidentally, I don't have much body hair, but that might also be...

    Gynecomastia or Pseudogynecomastia?

    I think its either. You get pseudogyno and if you neglect it it might develop into gyno.

    Theory About Propecia And Gynecomastia Prone Personn

    I can't obviously disprove his theory, but I would be an ectomorph and am developing mild gyno after 3 months of finasteride.

    Calling Those With Gynecomastia For Help

    Hi, I don't have answers as I am in the same boat, started finasteride 3 months ago but noticed very slight protruding nipples (no sensitivity though) and have immediately stopped. I am sure its due to finasteride as I am skinny guy and always had a flat chest. It seems taking 50-100mg zinc...
