Hey Av8tor, it may just be a username, but are you by chance a pilot? Sorry if it's a weird question

Yessir!

Yessir!

Cool! I soloed about a year ago and I'm a lineman at a regional airport, I lurk way more than I post but welcome to the forum man

[Artista]

I am an airlines employee too

[av8tor]

Cool guys!

So I think i'm going to take the plunge and start on Finasteride. Seems like I should try this for a year or so to see what kind of results I get before contemplating a hair transplant.

If I could stop my hair loss now and thicken up the thinner hairs around my temples, I'd be pretty happy with that! I don't think I would care about hair transplant surgery at that point.

You should be ALRIGHT and experience some type of positive (ongoing) results bro

You are making a good choice. Hopefully things work out for you. Just remember for most of us regrowth is a very slow process. Give it a full year and a half, maybe even two before giving up if regrowth or stabilization is slow.

Thanks for the feedback. I definitely will give it time.

Trying to do some research on Nizoral, running into discussions about regenepure too. Any recommendations on what sort of shampoo to get?

[Notcoolanymore]

I use both Regenepure and Nizoral. I don't prefer one over the other. The only reason I have both is because there was a period of time last year when Nizoral was unavailable.
