Rogaine or Propecia...which one?
Hello all,
In the summer, I started to notice a bit of hair loss, but played it off. I still do not think it is bad yet...but I want to stop it in its roots. I went to the dermatologist, who really wasn't nearly as helpful as I had hoped (wasted 75 dollars!). I asked him a few questions about treatment, of course we talked about Rogaine and Propecia. The Propecia is a bit pricy (70 for a month I think). I asked him about generic, but he said there was no generic 1 mg propecia (which he said was the theraputic dosage for hair loss). But I have seen otherwise online...
Really, I can only afford one, Propecia or Rogain. I am only 23, so I am worried the harmones in Propecia will mess me up (the Dr. said they will not). Rograin is cheaper, correct? Does it work as well? Right now, I am fine with what I have; I do not need to regrow hair, I just need to keep what I have.
Which do you think is better for me to use, if I can only go for one, and not the Big 3? Propecia or Rogain? Anything else I might want to use instead?
Anytips on someone just starting down this scary path of fighting hair loss?
thanks to all
