Huh, the Rogaine box said if I don't see any progress in 3 to immediately stop, but I guess I can give it 3 more.

So I've been using Rogaine for about 3 months, and I haven't really seen any progress (and I guess because of different light, I"m not sure if it's gotten worse, either), and I'm wondering if it's because I still have too much hair? Like I'm not properly able to rub it in to my scalp? Generally...

So I was readying about these on Hold the Hairline and I was wondering if anyone here has actually tried laser combs? I haven't seen them mentioned. I'm in the early stages of hair loss with just a bit gone on the top, and while I'm still in the early stages of finasteride and rogaine, the idea...

Really? Because everything I've read has mentioned finasteride as the best method of treating hair loss on its own. I guess my biggest question about rogaine then is still what happens if I don't see results and decide to get off it. Will my hair get worse even if there was no noticeable...

Yeah, crown is really all I need. I'm taking a quarter tablet and was thinking about bumping up to half but someone was saying that there's pretty much no difference between a quarter and whole tablet, so I'm not sure if it's worth it to do that

So I've been using a quarter tablet of finasteride for about 4 months now, and I haven't really noticed any improvement. If anything, I feel like my hair has gotten worse. I was thinking of adding rogaine, but wanted to know a few things 1. Has anyone here had successwith it, obviously. I'm in...

Well if castor oil and finasteride don't work in tandem, I'll add minoxidil, too. The problem is just that I don't want to immediately jmp to that, since it seems like a full-time commitment, and I don't wanna risk not being able to keep up

I'm doing a bit of research and it looks like it could work for me, early 20s, early hair loss, but I'm afraid of what happens if I lose a handle on the regiment. I'm a musician and part of that is touring in a van with a few guys on an erratic schedule. So I'm gonna wait until the end of this...

I don't know what that means, but I'm not taking propecia if that's what you mean. I get proscar from CVS cause my insurance doesn't cover it and I can't afford propecia

So what you're saying is you'll get your hair back AND lose some weight? All jokes aside, though, I just started today. The first page of the thread said 1-2mL should be safe but I see people on the more recent pages taking 2-3 and one saying 10 (probably a joke by them, though)? How's that...

I've thought about minoxidil but everything I've seen says that the percentage of people it works for is much, MUCH smaller than the ones it doesn't work for, and in some cases actually ends up speeding up hair loss.

So I'm looking up castor oil and it looks like it mostly helps with receding hairlines. I'm experiencing crown loss, so I'm wondering if it will still work for me, if it works at all

Interesting. I'd heard that 3 months was about the time I should wait to see if I'd experienced any positive results. How long should I wait before judging then? I actually didn't know this, but it's actually interesting advice because I'd been having anxiety over whether or not I was taking...

So I'm taking a quarter tablet a day, and I've been doing that for about 3 months now, and it feels like it's not doing anything. If anything, I feel like the hole in the back of my head is a little more obvious than it was when I first noticed it. Is this par for the course with finasteride, or...

Has anyone tried this? I picked up a bottle from CVS and have been using it once a day in addition to finasteride for about a month. I'm just wondering if anyone else has tried it or noticed any success or obvious lack thereof.
