i started in 2001 my regimen cause i was loosing my hair pretty bad. I would tell you over the past 9 years what i have use. what have worked for me and what not. Bare with me, english is not my native language

My hairloss pattern is vertex, crown, temple and frontal diffusing. Frontal and temple is were its more damage. i started reading this site back then and tried liquid rogain 5%, it gave me a bad scalp irritation i had to follow with nizoral to control it. even with nizoral it was super hard to control the flakes.

By 3 month on minoxidil i thought i was cure since even my forehead was full of hair, the shedding stopped and i was growing all my hair back. by 6 month i started to shed again and got scare thinking that it wasn't working anymore so i added finasteride (from inhouse pharmacy proscar 5mg cut in 1/4 1.25mg) i used finasteride FOR 3 YEAR WITH NO EFFECT. finasteride made it worse and very thin, i know this cause after i let finasteride go my hair went back to normal. during this time i had all side effect.

i have use minoxidil 5%, doctor lee 5%, 15%, spironolactone, tricomim, durasteride, and other pills like MSM, L-ARGINI etc.

NOW, when i started using dutasteride, this worked amazing (inhouse pharmacy generic dutasteride 0.5mg) i used it for 3 years aswell and my hair never looked so good. I thought again that i was cure but then i just stopped working, started loosing my hair again (i gave it 1 year xtra with no effect).

now i have been OUT OF finasteride AND dutasteride for 2 years, i thought i still had the side effects but now i know it was mastubating 2 much just leave your penis alone and you'll be fine.


i switch from liquid rogain to foam and this thing is amazing. It dry really quickly and gave back all my hair AGAIN. i have been using it for almost 2 years now with great success (NO finasteride) with nizoral 2-3 a week. i started to see again that rogain foam wasn't working so well and that i was loosing hair. Maybe was because of bad shedding.


well i really needed something to combat DHT, so i gave finasteride a try again BUT THIS TIME WENT WITH LEGIT PROSCAR PRESCRIPTION FROM COSTCO PHARMACY. i wanted to make sure that probably the reason finasteride did not work the last time was because i was getting FAKE finasteride. NOW i would really know if finasteride is actually working. Also to prevent side effect or aleast to keep it minimum i'm doing 0.5mg finasteride per day.

So far it had been a 3 month and i'm not loosing any hair and seen amazing filling in my temples and frontal. I'm sure this is a switch i have made in my regimen but i believe that finasteride is actually helping blocking DHT for other product llike minodixiil to be effective again for me.

This is my regime i'm and is working for me with excellent regrow, for the first time in 5 years i can go out without using dermmatch.

Loreal vive thicker hair shampoo for men 1x day
nizoral 1% 2-3x week
rogain foam 5% 2x day
proscar finasteride 0.5mg 1x day

this is simple and a easy regimen i'll keep update but for now i'm loving growing all my hair back.

is not that is expensive the problem a guess with me and a few others is that you have to get a prescription. also it would be a shame that i went to the doctor, loose a day from work only to find out that he doesn't want to prescribe me proscar for wherever reason he thinks is unsafe.

I was recommend to an online site which you pay $50 for an online prescription if they approved you and they call in your proscar prescription to the pharmacy. I was able to get 100 pill proscar at costco (legit finasteride 5mg pills) for $58 with an xtra refill which i can do it in 2011 for another 100 pills. The first batch i got doesn't expire until octuber 2011.

Now I realized...but...there's so many fakes online...I wanted to start minoxidil...5% for temples...and online 3 bottles of kirkland is about 50$...at drugstore i can find kirkland or rogaine...only hairgrow which contains 5% minoxidil...but i'm sure that is legit...I don't know what to do...because hairgrow for 3 bottles is about 60$...You know...I didn't know till days that in my country you can every form of finasteride without prescription...I was reading always ur post about prescription and I was thinking that in my country is also the same...till last week when I take right from a pharmacy without any prescription...now I really feel sorry because I didn't start earlier...anyway I catched early I say...

that's sure very expensive minoxidil. have you try ebay kirkland brand. i used for a while but i love foam since is not greasy like the liquid minoxidil version. try looking at ebay they do sell it for cheap. i remember back in the days getting a year supply of kirkland for $40.

yes...but I don't have that confidence...seems like is not a reliable source...but you have to know that...www.minoxidil.com....is this a reliable source?

yeah ebay minoxidil is reliable usually minoxidil is something that is actually legit almost everywhere. Is not like pills like finasteride or dutasteride which you are not sure if they are legit or not. plus you always look for feedback, protection before you buy and if you make a purchase from a seller and everything went well just keep ordering from him. www.minoxidil.com is mr lee site, i have work with him on my product. He charge a initial $10 for your minoxidil prescription and his minoxidil has a little higher alcohol base that drys up in a minutes. The problem is that is relative expensive in my opinion compare to kirkland. if i start to see no improvement from foam i might go with him again. Don't jump the ship and go with 15% start with his low 5% solution and see if it works better for you, 15% should be your last solution since is too agressive, always try 5% to your regular regimen
