    Default Positive results from Minoxidil???

    Im 33 and I started taking propecia for about 10 months. During this 10 month phase, this med was not for me, to make a long story short.
    Im a little apprehensive about minoxidil, due to shedding period. I read alot of post that guys are complaining about permanent loss from med shed.
    I cant use keto 2% it drys my scalp out way too bad. I would say im probably a nw2a. I started propecia as preventative measure for future loss. My hair was in much better shape before propecia.
    I currently use Nioxin daily, I know it dosent reduce dht, but I like the shampoo. My hairline seems to be drastically commiting suicide.
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    Minoxidil is definately not for anyone. It worked great for me. I had significant regrowth after using it for 6 monts. I used to use ******* from Dr. Lee. Unfortunately, the product is no longer available.

    Look into the foam version and start it gradually - shedding can occur but generally because people over apply and shock the crap out of the hair

    Use it sparingly

    i havn't recieved an answer in the other thread so I will post this here.

    I have just recieved my 3 month supply of Regaine, in liquid form and not in foam. Is it a good idea to use this liquid version or should I go and buy the foam version?

    Would like some clarification on this before I use it.

    Many thanks
