    I appreciate your initial concern. The pill contains Finasteride 1mg of it - this is the drug you need to help prevent DHT attacking the hair.

    If you convince yourself on side effects you will get them. Side effects are not uncommon however you will onlt hear about the negative - 10,000 take the drug with no side effects. Speaking of side effects - what are those B&H (cigarettes) doing to you ..... :

    Stick with the foam too mate in my honest opinion - if its a pain then just apply at night before bed - as its minimum inout relatively speaking and if you really want to address this hair loss issue head on and know for as fact you did everything you could to fight it then you need to get on the reg.

    No one siad it was easy, however its really not hard. You brush your teeth every day dont you to maintain your teeth... Well look at it just like

    If you want to keep and potentially improve your hair then roll with the programme

    Very true spex the ciggis ain't no good at all but that is a very bad habit of mine.lol
    I took the plunge yesterday and shaved my head to a grade 2 all over and all ive heard is compliments so I'm feeling very good at the moment, Ive made my mind up on the propecia and am going to hold fire for the moment and continue with the regaine foam. Maybe at a later date i might jump on it .Thanks bro for all your help you've been a star

    Cool! I've been using 5% Foam on my hairline for just over a month, couple of baby hair's but nothing worth showing.

    Would like to see your update on it tho

    Also, i quit heavy smoking nine weeks ago, hasn't done my hair any good whatsoever as far as i can see, but no doubt my health is better.
