Need Advice Guys!!!

So today after putting my night time products on my scalp i noticed that within the last month or two liquid minoxidil has totally shredded my right temple.

I just recently changed from foam to liquid and its seems ridiculous awful and i just want to quit minoxidil and live without doing any treatments!

My strict regimen consists of:

Morning - Rogaine Foam, Sprio (If enough time)

Night - Liquid minoxidil wait 20 mins then revivogen. wait 20 mins then spironolactone cream. I do this approx 4-5 times a week.

Is the above regimen set up to fail?

I use Nizoral and Tricomin as well.


I am just really confused/angry on what I should do! Should I drop everything and just use finasteride/Liquid Minoxidil?

Update: I have an appt next month to see my Doctor and I will get labs done. This is the first step toward my "finasteride Lunge".

I have thought of the following options as well

Xandrox 15 Plus
Proxiphen-N

why are you not on finasteride?

just curious

I dont like the idea of what the side effects are. ED, Brain Fog, Weight Gain (Gyno?), etc, etc

I know it happens in more than 2% of subjects rather than what Merck claims.

Only one way to find out..

I think it's useless to get back on a regimen that previously didn't work for you.

If I were you, i'd use proxiphen( theres no such thing as proxiphen-n, just prox-n) and minoxidil. Drop the spironolactone (proxiphen contains this) and revivogen. If you want to add somthing else I would go with Fluridil, but its pretty expensive and using more than two topicals is a pain.

So just minoxidil and prox n? How good is that spironolactone? Would u apply monix before applying prox?

Proxiphen ( Prescription Product for Hair Loss Treatment )

* Proxiphen contains minoxidil, as well as the prescription agents phenytoin and spironolactone ( a potent topically-effective antiandrogen ) SODs, copper peptides, TEMPO, PBN, etc.. Over a dozen active ingredients in all. It grows significantly more hair on more people than any other agent. Because it contains prescription agents, Proxiphen can only be dispensed on a physician's diagnosis of hair loss. Read the special instructions on how to obtain Prescription Proxiphen without coming to Houston. The cost is $100 for a one-month supply


Do all these products actually work together or is this the kitchen sink thrown in?

How come proxiphen is not more commonly used? My doctor needs to write a script to get this? LOL

I would guess its not commonly used because of the price and yes you need a script just like you need a script for topical spironolactone. If you already have a script for propecia, just send them that.
