    Although very funny, that's not necessarily true. I lost more hair on Propecia than without....but that's just me.

    I have maintained and had regrowth with minox by itself. Now do I recommend that others do that? NO. However to say you will go bald without some sort of androgen blocker is a stretch. Blocking the source is important, but I have been the same since starting Rogaine 4 years ago. To each there own.

    Still hope something better comes along...and soon.

    At this particular time, with most hair loss treatments being 10 years away and the rest being experimental and unproven at a large scale, the next best proven option after fin/dut is this:

    Good luck.

    Just give minox and keto shampoo a try and see how it works out. There are some around here that only use minox and get good results.

    Crazy how some of you guys will throw caution to the wind and use an experimental drug (RU) without rigorous clinical trials but go nuts when considering taking an FDA approved drug with about 25 years of safety and efficacy data.

    I would not consider that being risk averse.

    You say Propecia messed you up but it may have been something else. You cannot be sure of that it did mess your up nor that it didn't. It could have been hypochondria, a fairly common mental illness.

    Sides happen in over 5% of users...whats hard to believe about some online experiencing them?

    They seem to occur in more like 1-2% of users. So no, it would not be rare to find someone online with side effects, but still, the side effects are rare.

    It would not be rare to find someone online with an allergy to Aspirin, but still, allergy to Aspirin is rare.
