7 Months in, really good results!

[Shan]

Shan is back. His words are one of the reasons I gave fin a try. Glad I did.

Will probably be a regular on here for a few weeks, got time off work.

What meds are you on and how long has it been?

Amazing results. This is what Im hoping for. Only been on the fin for a month or so.

Cool, enjoy your vacation. I am on fin, minox, and nizoral. I have been on minox for 7 months, on fin for close to 6 months. I have definitely had regrowth. Do I have all my hair back? Hell No, but I definitely see a difference. There is no hope in getting all my hair back, it was too far gone when I started, but the meds are working. If I continue to steadily see regrowth/thickening, I will be more than satisfied.

you won't be 'satisfied' but you'll get enough to forget about it,

none of us ever will be 'satisfied'

I believe in you

Well put. I'm at the point personally where I realized I'm hitting it with the two things that actually matter, fin and minox, and stressing hair loss is detrimental to quality of life (and probably hair too).

Just gotta treat and move on.

I think this comment is quite true.
Though Propecia has fixed my initial problem.
I'm now looking for problems in my hair that aren't there

[redy]

personally, I tried to set realistic goals - to round out the right side of my hairline and thicken up the left, along with thickening my cowlick - and if I get there I'll be a hell of a lot happier. That's where my hair was before I started worrying about if anyone knew I was receding or not, and couldn't care less even though I was rocking a nw2ish at 19-20. Although, I think half of the mental problem with this balding deal is the power of information. I see tons of balding dudes that either have no idea what's going on, or don't care - and they seem less freaked out than I am. And I was one of those people last year. Now I might save it, but I'm a lot more stressed out about it.

Some fantastic results there! I started taking propecia about the same time as you and have seen almost identical results! I wish I had taken decent photos before and after like you have to show. I also started using the monoxidil however found that applying it twice a day was hard as it is a little greasy so have stopped using that, yet seen no thinning in my newly grown hair which is down to sticking with the propecia. I find also using nanogen fibres to have a quite remarkable effect and my hair has honestly not looked so thick and full in about 6 years!

Greetings from Oxford what dosage do you take? Glad you're seeing results yourself as well.
