25 year old needs help

[psalvador]

I suffer from difusse thinning hair and was using regaine 5%. Due some readings here I decided to use propeshia so I bought it (1 mg a day) and stopped using minox. About the four month using only propecia I noticed my hair getting thinner, was this caused due the fact i abruptually stopped using minoxidil? I read that I should quit minox so dratically that I should use it for 6 more months, is this right? If so, does anyone has an estimated time until my hair stops shedding? meaning propecia takes over minox?

Also, I noticed that my head has some shinning effect, will someone advice why this happens? is it really necessary to purchase minox and use propecia?

Im 25 years old...
Thanks
