Update Propecia and Minox

[sausage]

3 and a half months of......

Propecia 1 tablet a day.
Minox 2 squirts of foam a day.


Nothing. No symptoms, no improvement.

I thought this was a load of old bollox before I started on this stuff, It's turning out to be the case.

In 2 and a half months I will confirm if it is a load of old bollox or not.

See you then.

propecia takes a long time to work, even if you get good results. The first time I was on it, it took 9 months before I knew it was working in the back. Just don't give up so soon.

Propecia and rogaine are the only things that work. Everything else is a scam.

Was researching "big 3" threads tonight. Alot of guys didnt see improvements until well after 6 months. Some guys had continued improvements 2 years later.

Quite a few diffuse guys seemed to have near full heads of hair eventually.

May sound stupid, but stay positive. If you're not getting sides, and not shedding like crazy...then dont think about it. Just see what happens.

Don't panic man, you're in early stages. Some guys need 12 months or longer before they know if fin is working for them.
Unfortunately the company literature that says you'll see improvements after 6 months, for many men if not most, is nonsense.
Good luck.

I'm far worse state at 7 months on Propeica than I was at baseline... But I guess I'll have to keep going to at least 12 months to see what develops. It's tough. A literal ordeal.

It is best to take pictures at start of treatment (or even now) & then take more every 3 - 4 months to review progress. With that said, one should continue treatment for at least 12 months and, preferably, add Nizoral shampoo to treatment.

**** this we need better treatments - 20 years with just rubbish minox and bullshit propecia is awful.

It takes 12 full months before you will know if Propecia is working for you or not. It takes much longer before you will know if you will be able to regrow any hair or not.

It takes four to six months before you will know if Rogaine is working for you. It takes 12 to 18 months before you will know if the regrown hair is going to be cosmetically significant.

Six months is not long enough. Read my comments above.

I've seen your pictures. You are not worse than baseline at all, much less "far worse".
