will i lose progress if I break from rogaine for 1 week?

[rooftop2599]

I have been doing combination Rogaine and Propecia for about 12-18 months now and I am very happy with the results. I started early and I would say that my hair is just about the right thickness currently.

Unfortunately, I am going into the desert for a week and while I will be able to continue to take Propecia during that week, for various reasons I won't be able to continue the Rogaine. I'm going to start right back up again after my 7-8 days in the desert, but what I'm wondering is, am I going to lose all of the progress I made in the past 12 months as a result of stopping for 8 days?

Is there any information you could point me to to help answer this question?

Thanks...

Ie do you think I'll be all the way back where I started? Anybody at least have some anecdotal info?

From what I have heard other board members say a week should be fine.

you should be fine. It takes a couple of months or even more.

AZ surely didn't lose everything because of the one week break...
