Hey guys! So I figured I would share my story.....
I started losing hair....I don't know when maybe 19-20 and went on Rogaine in 2009 (when I graduated college) and holy crap did it make a HUGE difference...my crowns grew back an insane amount...I tried taking propecia at the same time (1mg/day) however I hit too many side effects including, manic mood swings, insomnia, brain fog, etc.....I stopped but continued only rogaine up until 25 (September, 2012)..In early 2012, I took propecia on and off including .5mg/day and had side effects..
Fast forward to September 2012...I started talking MINIMAL...I mean minimal doses of propecia...very small bites...every other day...I have since increased to .125mg/every other day...regardless of what studies and people say SOME IS BETTER THAN NONE!...that being said I am hitting shedding...not too much maybe 10-15 hairs morning and night each day...I plan on increasing propecia slowly as I move along but what are your thoughts on taking .125/every other day? I cannot take more than that because the side effects make me crazy...I am trying desperately to save my hair by going to the gym, staying healthy, no drugs, no smoking, barely drinking, eat healthy, etc....I guess I am more self-conscious because my sister is ridiculously gorgeous and I don't want to be the ugly brother :\.....
Thoughts?
