    Question Norwood 3v to Norwood 2 on Big Three

    I'm just wondering if this is possible? I'm 28 and first noticed my hair loss 4 years ago, and it's during the past 4 years that I've lost the most. What I'm doing is basically,

    (a) Fin 1mg daily,
    (b) Rogaine foam, twice daily,
    (c) Nizoral three days a week.

    Just wondering is there any hope of this happening, aka. dropping from NW3v in NW2?

    It depends on your response to hairloss medicines.

    Dutasteride (Avodart) should be available for AGA next year, at least in some countries:

    I am using it and completely outperformed Propecia.

    To be more clear, i'm currently using them both but the plan is to slowly leave Finasteride behind and stay with Dut till CB-03-01 pans out

    In the meantime, if necessary, i will go up to the 2.5 mg DUT dose to maintain what i have now, altough 0.5 mg seems to work very well on me at the moment

    depends on two factors:

    1) How aggressive your hairloss is, the more aggressive the less likely the medicine will do much more than maintain(this is a problem for myself, hairloss just far too agressive and I need to add another DHT inhibitor like CB)

    2) how you respond to the medicine, at 4 years your hairloss seems somewhat agressive but if you dont get sides you may get some positive results.

    definitely worth a shot!
