I just received spironolactone 5% topical cream from Dr Lee's wesbsite, and i'm curious about what will happen if i stop it suddenly say 6 months into using it.
Since i'm not sure of the chemistry behind it , will stopping it cause all the hair maintained by the spironolactone to fall out (just like stopping propecia) or what?
It's a concern to be because lets say I'm travelling and staying in a hostel. It's one thing to pop a finasteride pill , use nizoral or even apply minoxidil in the privacy of the bathroom but putting that thick white cream on your head is entirely noticable to everyone. The thought of not being able to stop it once i start scares me as i cannot foresee every occasion i will come up against in future.
Just a little FYI , I'm 24 , Norwood 2 (thinned rapidly at temples for last couple of years) .. For months been onto proscar 1/4'd , nizoral and 2 months ago started rogaine foam. Definately maintaining and I'm pretty sure that minoxidil is working .. Can see lots of vellus hairs on hairline.. just wanting to add something else so i dont recede any further.
Cheers
