    hey thanks for replying back.

    im thinking of leaving Fin out as im a bit afraid of the sides associated.

    Hi Guys -whats the difference between Fin and azelaic acid? - they are both DHT blockers - correct?

    I hear side effects about Fin but nothing on azelaic acid

    appreciate the feedback

    thank you

    Yes. It definitely helps with absorption of topical treatments - you can tell because less residue is left on your scalp. However, it is widely accepted that a 1.5mm is the best to use and they are really painful on the skin. To me it hurt as much as getting a tattoo done.

    In general, I barely get any sides from treatments - not even from dut or RU. So I've only had noticeable shedding once - when I started derma rolling more frequently, which was about a month ago.

    i was thinking of bumping up to 15% minox. I was afraid of side effects jumping from 5% so i thought 12% was a good start, as recommended by susan herself. Also when did you notice a shed?

    As mentioned, have been using it since last October. Immediately noticed the vellus hairs at my temples gaining length. Recently shed them all and now have 5 or so new dark hairs growing at my temples. It's taken 8 months but I recon this stuff actually works and I'm usually extremely pessimistic about hair loss treatments. I think part of the reason for this sudden regrowth is the fact I've switched from derma rolling once a month to once a week.

    Jazz - do you still use Susan's formula? I've finally run out of the two bottles I bought last October and was wondering if a) you still recommend the product and b) you think we will still have issues with customs when getting it delivered to the UK?
