    My advice to propecia users who quit

    Dont quit because you think it's not working anyway.
    I did for 6 months and it has never been the same since I started back on it.
    Also .5 mill doesn't work anymore.
    I have to start after 6 years at .5 to up it to 1.25 daily.

    Lets hope I get a few more years of maintaining.

    By the way Im 65.
    I started taking propecia when I was 58 because of a bald spot in back.

      How much regrowth did you originally get? Maybe you can do 1.25 till it kicks in then go back down ?

        Is this a joke? You're combating your hairloss at 65? Jeez, if 65 year olds can't be content with appearing older, there is something seriously wrong with our society.

          The truth is the truth.
          Stay out my threads Im trying to help those that are old or young not to stop of they'll be sorry.

          Some people look pretty good at 65.

          Its nice to know that propecia works on older guys as well.

          Your never too old to look better.

          Also I noticed my prostate works a bit better.

              I'm not tryin' to hate, man. You gotta admit, you got a little trolly there for a second a while back. I didn't know if you were done or not.

              More power to you though. I actually agree. I'll do everything I can to look good until the day they put me in the ground. If it's workin' for you, rock on. And it's good to have people around here that are satisfied with fin but still come back to give advice.

                Some of the younger guys seem to think that everything changes at 30 and you suddenly no longer care about your appearance or anything else. Guess they will have to find out for themselves!



                Oh and the fin stops working, try avodart. My dad got a small spot around 70. His dr put him on Avodart for his prostate and his spot completely disappeared.

                  I don't mean to sound obnoxious and I get the whole argument that people want to look good at any age, etc etc....but some people don't even live till they are 70 even in the ''developed'' world.

                  If someone had a small bald spot at 70 no-one looking at him would care in the slightest!! I think at 70 if the only thing troubling my health enough that i'd have to go to the Dr's and get a get a prescription for was a small bald spot. Then I'd be a very very happy man.

                      Lol why are you guys picking on him. My dad is 60, and bald and doesn't care, but he appears to be in his 40s according to everyone who sees him. 30 is the new 20, so that means 65 is actually 55.

                        Bob IS a troll.... he frequents this board to get his jollies off making fun of others.

                        WTF is he doing at 65 taking a drug for his hair and claiming he has no interest in sex anymore??? From a psychological standpoint, the reason most men take the drug is for confidence and youthful appearance (which of course is tied to sexuality). If I didn't give a shit about sex, don't think I'd be stressing over my hair.........

                          Just wait my friend. Everybody gets their turn.
                          Believe me if you had hair at 45 you'll still like to have it at 70.
                          I bet you Spencer will still be taking it in his 60's if something new doesn't come out .
                          This message board isn't just for kids in their 20's and 30's.
                          If it is then Spenser should boot me.
                          By the way Im not stressing over hair you cant stop time.

                          As far as sex goes I have grown kids and grand children and sex is on the back burner as far something important. I never lacked confidence.
                          But as far as hair goes, old guys like to look good too . Like I said you'll find out. Time goes quick.
                          I also said it helps my prostate too not just for hair.

                          Anyway have a great life.

                            As I said in the message, the avadart was for his prostate. At that point he was starting to get pretty sick and his hair was the last thing on his mind. I doubt at that he even was aware he had a spot. But I noticed that it came on quick as he got sick/turned 70. And it disappeared pretty quick on avadart....

                              propecia at 65? that is fukin crazy if you ask me. No wonder .5mg did it for you, you don't have DHT at all.

                              This dude has low testosterone so his hair loss is not agressive at all (well no shit sherlocks hes going bald at 65 oH NOOOOO poor guy poor poor fella that is devastating !! ).

                              Trust me i would have been the happiest guy in the world If I had make it to 30 with hair like all my family members who started balding at late 40s.

                              Most of us here would have been happy to make it to late 20s that's where we get to enjoy our "youth".
