    Default Propecia/ Rogaine questions

    I am 27 and started losing hair about 3 years ago. I am about a NW 2.5. My questions regarding these two are, with my situation,

    (a) How long would the shredding phase be using propecia?

    (b) How long would the shedding phase be using Rogaine?

    (c) How many months would these two take to see results?

    (d) Could I hope to regrow some hair?

    Thanks

    Impossible to say as not everyone sheds and everyone responds differently to meds/treatments.

    If you were to shed, then shed phase is in approx first 1 month and then re-growth phase of shed hair occurs after 3/4 months.

    Any benefits from the treatments would be seen after 8-12 months on average.

    The main purpose for taking by these treatments is to prevent further loss, regrowth is a bonus.
