Hellouser's RU Log (with Minox, CB Nizoral and Saw Palmetto)

Not sure, but something tells me 'no' because I don't see a whole lot of growth from Finasteride on its own. I would imagine it'd be the same for RU and CB on their own. Should work for halting hairloss. I think Minox should be in EVERY regimen for regrowth.Comment

Perhaps its possible that RU and CB would have stabilised things which might mitigate the dreaded minox shed?Comment

Hellouser, are you mixing your CB with your RU, or how are you using it?Comment

Thanks to Winston theres no way of editing my initial post in this thread so I know things will get ugly with updates, otherwise I'd just keep adding more info with newer timelines in the first post.
Anyway, I was running out of RU a couple months ago, around April actually. I think I have about 5-10 days worth left but I haven't used any of my RU anyway. I did receive in April my CB but in the wrong form (it doesnt completely dissolve). When I had both, I was applying like this:
- Wake up in the morning, wash hair with either Nizoral or Saw Palmetto/L-Arginine shampoo. Dry hair and style, go to work.
- Finish work around 6pm. I first apply RU at around this time (1ml w/ 100mg)
- Wash hair around 11:30pm and between this time and 12:00am I would apply CB (1ml w/ 10mg)
- At around 12:30am I then apply Minoxidil (1-1.5ml @ 5%, thus 50-75mg)
- Sleep.
But since around January I've only been on CB and haven't noticed much hair loss. Everything is pretty much fine.Comment

I don't mix them, I don't know how you came to this conclusion, I've never stated that anywhere on this forum.

Assuming you must be thinking this as well or why else would you stop RU after seeing your hair thickness come back so dramatically. I would be thrilled to regain a thickness like that and the last thing I would do is stop after such a short stint.Comment

So I finally got my hands on some RU, couldn't get the liquid though. I don't have any everclear alcohol (isn't sold where I live) so do you think mixing the appropriate dosage (gonna start around 40-50 mg) with regular Rogaine liquid minox is ok?
I know some people have done this, but wanted to make sure.Comment

supposedly some have gotten results with RU while mixing it with minox
I started doing that but switched to everclear
For some reason the RU/minox combination kept sticking to my hair and hardening like glue or some sort of super dense hair gel
It got to the point where I could not really comb my hair without pulling a bunch of hairs out in the processComment

I am currently about the 7th week mark and not seeing these results, I loke more like the 2nd picture. I realise it may take longer for some but also wonder should I add a growth factorComment
