Propecia alone works?

My hair is thinning. Im 21 year old guy.
I started using propecia 1 month and 1 week ago. So far, no results.
Does Propecia alone works too? I read that most users uses Rogaine and Propecia cambo, but i can´t because i just don´t have money. My money is limited. I used Rogaine like 6 month and had no results. Now im using 1 Propecia and no results(i heard it takes months before i see anything?).

Well, i heard that Green Tea lowers DHT. I drink green tea 1-3 times a day with Propecia everyday. Does it work? Some people says that Green tea increases DHT and with Rogaine it makes effect 0%.

So please tell me. Will Propecia 1mg a day works or not? Should i take this night or morning? will Green tea help or its my enemy?

yes but you're going to need patience. minimum of 1 year before you can truly assess it's effectiveness

rogaine+propecia works no better than propecia alone when it comes to long term maintaining of hair. Adding rogaine contributes to better regrowth though.

If you are going to take green tea to reduce finasteride even beyond what finasteride will do alone then you might as well just use dutasteride.

It will take far longer then 1 month to see results

well to have dutsasteride needs also some paper to buy this cure. i dont even know if this cure is in my country and what price.
What you mean green tea reduce finasteride? i don´t get it. do you mean green tea blocks propecia effects? this means propecia is useless with green tea?

no, I mean propecia lowers DHT, and green tea supposedly reduces DHT according to you. If you are taking green tea to lower DHT then I am assuming for some reason you have a desire to lower your DHT levels even lower than what finasteride alone will do. If you wanted to do that you could take dutasteride, which lowers DHT levels further then finasteride

In all honestly, from what I've heard, Minoxidil is just a waste of money , but it can work for /some/ people, but not all. Also, when it comes to maintaining what's left of your hair, propecia alone will work fine.

As long as you haven't experienced any side effects (mainly sexual) so far with propecia, then 1mg a day should work just fine for you. I'd recommend taking pictures of your crown every 6 months to see if propecia has helped regrow your hair or just stopped the balding process.
As for the green tea, I'm reading mostly positive things about it so keep drinking it if you like, doubt it will make a difference though, same with taking the pill morning or night. Whatever works best for ya.

Good luck! :)

Well they sell only 0.5 MG dutasteride but Propecia is 1MG. is 0.5 dutasteride better than propecia?
Well i think for some reason doctor wont write dutasteride out because it´s for something else but it does reduce DHT.

0.5mg of dutasteride every day reduces DHT by 90%, 1mg of finasteride every day reduces DHT by 70%.
Dutasteride isn't approved for hair loss, that's why most doctors won't prescribe it and some only prescribe it when finasteride doesn't work.
