    Default Considering going back to Propecia, need advice!

    Hello Everyone,

    First let me tell you a little about my hair loss history.

    I started losing my hair very rapidly by the time I was 17 yo, I won't get into details about how devastating it was since everyone here know how we feel about losing our hair at young age.

    I started using Minox right away and by the time I was 19 I would say I was already a NW 2.5, (Minox helped a lot but I was still loosing my hair) so My doctor recommended Propecia which I used for a a good 9 years.

    Fin didn't solved the issue but it took me back to a very stable NW2 so I went happily trough most of my twenties

    Sides were there but nothing to be to worry about until I turned 28, when I started to have a bit of a difficult time achieving strong erections and having a more than one relation in one night became almost impossible

    After visiting many doctors and running some test I decided to quit propecia for the fist time and of course shedding came back.

    I didn't want to deal with the shedding so after six month I stated propecia again (honestly at the time I was never convinced that all my sides were due to propecia so I gave it another try)

    I took fin for another 2 years the second time and my hair went back to normal, but sides remain so I stooped again about 18 month ago.

    I though I was going to loos all my hair in a year but probably since I'm 32 now my DHT isn't so bad but still I went from NW2 to NW3.

    So my question is, I'm considering going back again but with very low dose (.25 twice a week) has anyone experienced any success with this dose?
    Is it logical to assume that with this amount my sides won't come back?

    Any comments/advices are deeply appreciated
