    Hey Adam,
    What I’m saying is that finasteride is finasteride. If it’s the real deal, whether it’s s sold as Propecia or Proscar you will see the same benefits if you respond well to the drug.

    I am not a physician. My opinions and knowledge concerning hair loss and its treatment are based on extensive research and reporting on the subject as a consumer advocate and hair loss educator. My views and comments on the subject should not be taken as medical advice. Always seek the advice of a medical professional when considering medical and surgical treatment.

    Ideally a slow down of the shedding would indicate that you’re responding well to the drug, but I have known guys who continue to shed, but seem to maintain their hair over the years.

    Thank you. Any chance you browse over that article I linked at the end of the 1st page? And with Proscar. Is there any chance of re-growth or does it just dramatically slow down the rate of your hair loss? Thanks again so much for all your help. I appreciate it.

    I understand trying something natural first. But $10 for four months should not be what is stopping you.
