Checked my mail today. Apparently my generic fanasteride came yesterday all the way from India. Must be why it took so long. I start taking them tomorrow. Wish me luck.

Didn’t want to take up any more space than I had to here. I’ve got two unrelated questions here… First: I’ve been using Revivogen for about a week now. Shampoo, conditioner, and the application on top of Rogaine twice a day. Earlier this week I noticed that I was getting pretty dry...

Been using Revivogen shampoo, conditioner, and the chemical application for a few days now. It’s no hassle to apply before bedtime and only once did it seem to react with the Rogaine I put on 20 minutes later. Just a little tingle. Should I maybe reverse the order to Rogaine, wait 20...

Just got my Revivogen in the mail today. Tonight will be my first application. Earlier I used the shampoo and conditioner. I followed them with Jason Think-to-Thick hair thickening shampoo with biotin. It really seems to help the overall appearance a lot. Hopefully the finasteride will come...

Traveler- Definitely interested in seeing your pictures. Let me know when they’re up. I’ve considered most of the main options. Currently using Rogaine 5%, just ordered Revivogen and finasteride like I said. Also using Nizoral and various thickening shampoos. Tricomin I...

Week 6: Sometimes I feel fully confident in my hair and sometimes it’s all I think about. Loss hasn’t seemed to slow down any. Nothing feels great but occasionally I see what I’ve lost and don’t freak out. Maybe because I’m doing something about it even...

That's a weird coincidence, PTN. I haven't looked very hard but I haven't seen any that look that similar to mine either. Hopefully updating pictures tomorrow. I also just ordered a Revivogen pack online and am considering ordering generic finasteride.

Week 5: Still think I’ve been losing more. Can’t tell if it’s slowed down at all or not. I missed one of my Rogaine applications but I doubt it’d make a noticeable difference. I’m calling my doctor tomorrow for an appointment. I intend to bring up the...

Trying to do weekly updates for my self it nothing more. Still just using Rogaine. I haven’t seen much difference, maybe even some loss, but I know that it takes time if it’s gonna work. I’m fine with keeping at it – I actually kinda like the way it makes my hair...

Thanks a lot for all the info, 21. I really do appreciate it. I've got an appointment with my Doctor coming up soon anyway, so I'll make sure to be up on all this stuff by then. Thanks again.

Okay, looked up proscar. I see that it’s a prostate drug first and happens to have an effect on hair loss. What are the chances of my doctor or a dermatologist prescribing me this drug without my having any prostate trouble? And what, if any, difference in cost is there between proscar...

Thanks guys. I asked my doctor about it but at the time I was there for an anti-anxiety/OC drug and he said he wasn’t itching to put me on a testosterone-related drug right away. However, I haven’t had any problems with my current medicine, so I can ask him again or go see a...

I am about to turn 21. I used to have fairly long hair until about a year ago, when I decided to go for the buzz look. People seemed to like it, I liked it, and I wasn’t thinking about hair loss at all. Chalk it up to my parents telling me it’d never happen to me, despite a...

Thanks for the replies Stevie and Dave. Did my first application today. My hair’s kind of shaggy right now so I hope more of it got into the scalp than my actual hair.

This may be a recurring question on the board, and if it’s the kind that pops up every few weeks I apologize in advance. I’m turning 21 in January and have noticed some hair thinning and hairline receding in the past six months or so. So far it has all been in the front, and...
