its been a year? has the rogaine made it worse still?

How's it going?

Still no results man, no. Just a steady deterioration on the one side. Things have only gotten worse really since I started treating it.

I've had no great side-effects from the fin. Some fatigue initially which caused me to lower the dosage. No sexual sides. I'm on .265 (I think) a day which is hopefully enough to do something. I think I'm shedding again, or have been. All in the same spot, that left side, as usual. Hair parted on one side and I'm noticeably thinning. Hair parted on other side and I look like I have a full and thick head of hair. Hoping to at least maintain this.

Pics attached in bright lighting. Minox applied in some of them.

Hey I just read your whole thread and I'm curious if you decided to stick with Fin and if you've experienced any side effects. I did 1.25 mg/day for about 9 months, and about 5 or 6 months in started feeling like I may be experiencing a lack of libido, but I stuck with it until November, went off for a couple weeks when I was on vacation, then went back on for about a month, and now have been off for about 3 weeks because I'm pretty sure now it's not just in my head and my libido is definitely lower when I'm on the drug. I didn't really realize it until I got a pretty serious gf who wanted to go all the time, and I just didn't have the urge for it like I used to (and I'm only 25yrs old).

I'd be tempted to try a lower dose, but I wonder how effective it would even be at slowing hair loss anyways.

Has your lower dosage stopped your losses and without any side effects?

Thanks

.2 MG every 3 days can be as effective as 5 mg.

.2 MG every 3 days can be as effective as 5 mg.

What is .2 mg if quartering a proscar pill is 1.25 mg?
