    No you don't need a prescription and yes they are legit; I use the site myself and some users on this forum do too.

    I searched for weeks and those two were the best recommended that I found and was the cheapest.

      They have propecia on their and proscar. I'm confused as to how a website that's selling finasteride without a prescription needed is selling brandname finasteride?

        They get their products from other countries so that's probably why.

          Samiam, GreatSage is advising you to purchased meds on the internet grey market. This is not good advice. This is not sound advise. Not to mention that you are legally a minor... Your body is your body and your money is your money. You do with them what you want. However, anyone who advises the internet grey market as a good source for meds is probably not the sharpest tool in the shed - and such advice should be ignored.

          I was going to write something else, something very different from this, but after these comments I think it is best that I bow out - and hope you take that brain the good Lord gave you out for a spin..

            Here is my plan
            I am going to call my aunt tonight, she is a doctor. I'm going to tell her my situation and ask her if she can prescribe finasteride. If not ill have to improvise n see where i can go from there.

              I thought I'd just suggest it since Samiam seems confident on what he wants to do and because I was in the same boat as him before and the same situation I thought I'd just give him what he asked for.

                    Oh come on! Has it not occurred to you that she might be trying to shock some sense into you?

                    I went back through your old posts and looked at your pics. What I see is a boy whose hair line is turning into a normal mature male hair line. This is not a sign that you are going bald. This is a sign that your hair line is changing from the hairline of a boy into the hairline of a man. Most grown men have a hair line like that. It is normal for men to have a hair line like that.

                    The spot on your crown might be something someday - but it is way too soon to worry about it. You are seventeen years old. You have lots of time. Plenty of time to wait until you are old enough to get a legitimate prescription.

                        About four years ago, my primary care doctor suggested I try the laser comb. So I bought one and I've been using it ever since. I am not sure if it made any hair grow back - but I am sure that it makes the hair that I have look really great. After that first six months way back then, my hair did look thicker and it felt stronger. So after that first six months of using it, I started using Minoxidil and Nizoral A-D as well. I've been on that regimen ever since.
