    Good luck, dude. I went through steady shedding for the first few months of fin, then I added minox and my hair was falling out like crazy. Couple months in and I can pull test my hair all day and not lose anything.

    Keep at it.

    My hair looks as bad as yours but I'm 17 going on 18.

    I started taking Finasteride but have some Rogaine foam in the bathroom that I never touch, for fear of shedding.

    Keep updating! I really want to see how Minoxidil works for you.

    I went to see a dermatologist who prescribed me 5mg Finasteride to cut up into 1/4ths.

    I just told her I was losing hair, she looked and saw my temple recession and wrote up the script.

    Why don't you do the same? You can always order them online. Although if you did that, I would play it safe and go with brand name Proscar since you don't know where the stuffs coming from.

    should take pictures with similar angles and lighting. Impossible to really tell if you're gaining or losing ground. But goodluck on your fight

    That is awesome, I'm feeling really optimistic though, since i have alot of small hairs around the hairline and temples that weren't there before (atleast if i remeber correctly). When I get a little older I'm definitely going to try out fin or dut.

    I thought you had to be 18. Interesting. I live in Sweden, so I don't really know how I would go about getting it here, but yeah online would be an option. I'm a little afraid however that it might stop my beard from developing if i start fin before it's fully developed.. :P I'll do some research

    Är också från Sverige, boka bara en tid med läkare vid din vårdcentral och berätta läget, iaf så jag gjorde, han hade ingen aning vad propecia var men berättade att jag hade läst om det och ville testa, så han skrev ut recept.

    Jaså, så enkelt? Men är det inte åldersgräns på det? och piller för en månad kostar ju 500 kr.. :P får kolla upp det där lite mer men tack för svaret!
