Hey all,
After reading about the importance of taking pictures, even before optimal results are achieved, I thought I'd post a progress report for reference. I started finasteride and nizoral in late August (generic finasteride cut into fourths), and added Minoxidl around late September. Results so far:
One week into treatment (baseline)
One month into treatment (a bit of a shedding phase)
About four months into treatment (taken today under natural light)
I'm not sure what to make of this; my hair might just look fuller because it has a bit more length than at the beginning of treatment. The hairline is acceptable but still a bit weak, and the crown still looks like ****. Hair loss on my crown started about 2.5 years before I started treatment, so I might have waited too long. I don't know if there's still hope for that area because it looks pretty slick bald. Do the hairline and crown areas look like they can only be recovered by surgical hair restoration?
Anyway, I'll continue with the regiment, keep an eye on it, and maybe post another progress report in late March at the eight month mark.
