    I don't know about buying it from an online pharm. I put in search, in the pharmacies I do trust, and they don't have it.

    About MPB, I learned that myself, doctor's don't know much about that.

    About AA, the only treatments they have put on is, steroid injections, clobetasol ointment, and Protopic ointment. Only the injections partially worked.

    doctor's don't know jack... why do people even go to them? Whatever they learned 20 years ago is outdated and irrelevant right now.
    As soon as technology comes up with a thing that "tests your blood" over the internet, doctors won't be needed at all.

    anyways, sulfazine is also popular among arthritis people so I'm sure some online pharmacy must sell generics of it or something. Google -> buy sulfazine

    I've gotten corticosteroids injections, use topical clobetasol. The injections gave me partial regrowth, like half. But not full regrowth.

    I'm not good at telling NW's, so maybe you're right, i'm a NW3. But what google images show as an NW3, is not what I see in my pictures. I don't have an M-shaped hairline.

    wth dude?

    http://www.modernmedicine.com/modern.../detail/666211 [Sulfasalazine may be effective in alopecia areata treatment]

    Twenty-two of 26 patients completed the study. Overall, results showed that 68.2 percent (15 of 22) of patients responded to therapy with 27.3 percent (six of 22 patients) and 40.9 percent (nine of 22 patients) demonstrating a complete hair re-growth and a partial hair re-growth, respectively.
    AA has so many treatments... I would definitely try doing something

    From the pictures i've shown in this thread, what Norwood would you guys say I am? Ignore the AA spots and look at the MPB pattern and receded hairline and go from there please. Obviously the AA spots make it look worse.

    Hi yeahyeahyeah, sorry for the delay in getting back to you. I can't recommend finasteride on the basis of my terrible experience with it, I can only urge caution. Many guys seem to tolerate it well but, though I may be biased, the risk just doesn't seem worth it. It's Russian Roulette and if you are in the unlucky group who get side effects, it's a cruel experience.

    Because all fin has done is stop the hair loss, look at my hair, it looks like sh*t. Maintaining hair would be good for you, you have a lot of hair. Don't let it get out of hand and wish you had get on fin earlier.

    I need regrowth, not just something that would stop my hair loss. I need something that would give me back enough hair that I would stop wearing baseball caps to go outside. If Dut can give me just a little bit of regrowth, I would be happy at this stage of my hairloss.

    I'm a full time college student, I won't afford any expensive treatments. If I could, I would have just done a FUT.

    See what you mean dude.

    I take it that you are taking propecia in prep for future treatments right
