[QUOTE=kessel81;985406623]I know but I'm foreverscurred of its potential side effects.
Working penor > hair[/QUOTE]side effects are common on the internet because the people who get them are the ones that go online making threads about it, the majority of the people who dont get the side effects don't report their success. out of the people that i know personally nobody got sides, my uncle said he got some sides but after he stopped everything went back to normal.
Got myself some Azeliac acid cream, it's early days yet however I it looks like there is a noticeable improvement on my hairline after only 2 weeks. I have been using minoxidil for 5 months, previously.
hey guys. Been on topical spiro for 3 weeks now, seems like my hair is getting worse ( shed??). I am aproaching my 6th month on minox once a day and i think im going downhill. Im a diffuser and i have to comb my hair to the side other wise my scalp is visable. My scalp is now visable when combed straight ( through the comb lines)
freaking out now im stuck to wearing a hat everyday, im praying that it will improve before feburary
O Pee, any suggestions for hair loss in the dink region?
Any advice is greatly appreciated!
[QUOTE=iCAMETOPLAY;985323063]Anyone having any side effects from Rogaine? Specifically side effects on face aging? Thanks.[/QUOTE]
im here to clarify the Rogaine and face aging. Whenever you get rogaine on your face such as when you put it on your hair and it seeps on your pillow and you put your face on it for 8 HOURS STRAIGHT, it gets absorbed and all the bloodvessels will dilate giving you a crappy textured bolbous appearance. Never put rogaine on head and go to bed. Wash it ALL off via shower before bed.
so is it true that once coming off cycle on these hair supps your hair goes back to normal hair loss rate or does it speed up hair loss rate post cycle?
FUK THIS if my hair doesnt thicken by feburary im gonna nek my self ( not srs)
i cant leave the house without a hat FML but.. high natty test?? gained 15lbs in 5 months

Today is Nov 28th. On Dec 1st, take around 10 pictures of your head at various angles. Compare it with pictures from previous months and see the change. Repeat this again on the first of every month. It'll give you a better idea as to what exactly is going on...
Hair is starting to get long. Note: Didn't say I was growing more/hair was getting thick/etc etc, just saying hair is starting to get long. Applying Rogaine foam is starting to get more difficult. Want to get a haircut, but don't at the same time. When I get it cut short, my scalp gets pretty noticeable. Damn, balding is such a ****ing hassle.
no thanks jeff

I have one question..
HAS ANYONE IN THIS WHOLE THREAD MANAGED TO GO FROM BALD/BALDING TO HAVING HAIR GROW BACK AND LOOK GOOD?????????
for those that uses rogaine/minoxidil, do any of you guys leave it on over night and sleep with it in ur hair?

I do this. Right before I go to bed, I get my hair damp. Wet my hands, and apply the foam onto my hand, so that it doesn't evaporate. Distribute it through my head and go to bed. Wake up, shower, and repeat.

Maybe he'll come back in here and tell you his regimen
Just gotta stay on fin until something better comes out.
You DON'T want to be slick bald when those new treatments comes out of FDA trials, in my opinion.
You want something like fin without the side effects right? Well you better preserve your hair till then.
Good luck.

Add in one of the ketoconazole shampoos talked about in this thread. I'm using regenepure DR and nizoral 2%.

It reverts to how it would be if you had never used in the first place, that's for sure. There seems to be mixed opinions on if it will speed up the balding or not.

I don't think test levels and male baldness are directly related.

My hair is about 2-3 inches on top right now. It's definitely more of a pain than a buzz cut.
[QUOTE=Plushophile;985660823]thoughts on garnier fruitis length and strength shampoo and conditioner?[/QUOTE]
Not good for fighting MPB, probably fine to use your secondary shampoo if you use a keto shampoo. But I would recommend another OTC dandruff shampoo instead.

I do this but I use foam and lipogaine. Both dry pretty fast.

Is this fukkin real life?
What is everyone's opinion on this? I think its a load of BS considering the foam dries pretty damn quick, and on the little instruction booklet I received with Rogaine, it states that I shouldn't go to bed until after 30 min of applying the foam. So I assume it would be safe to go to bed after 30 min of applying the foam.
Been using Rogaine like this for 12 days now exactly, and I haven't noticed any difference on my face.
However, it may be true for the solution version of minoxidil which takes a while to dry. I can see that absorbing through the pillow if it hasn't fully dried.

Working penor > hair[/QUOTE]
ive been on it for almost 2 months and no sides. penor works great
Posting my update.
I got some nizoral in june, got some s3 cream and rogaine, and went to work. i'd apply rogaine 2x a day, and nizoral every other day or so. s3 right after rogaine. i'd do this inconssitently, but mostly on a regular basis. on and off...
I was thinking that id been wasting the past few months until i looked back closely in the mirror.
****'s working. I see tufts of hair around the area that I'm applying the stuff. I see little black hairs going down past my hairline, and when i rub my fingers against the grain on what used to be TOTALLY bald areas i feel some hairs pushing against it.
aagin, i look closely in the mirror and see hair sprouting up. i expect more months of this, but I'm on the right track
CLIFFS: Be patient. REAL patient

been using minoxidil for a year plus. Used liquid which used to drip down my face, and foam which sweats down my face when I lift. Not a single wrinkle was seen that day. I always use minoxidil before bed if I use it 2x a day. You guys are so paranoid about every thing lol, I remember someone in here insisting that minoxidil can cause erectile dysfunction .

dude your hair isn't as bad as you think it is, aside from the diffuse thining you got. Why don't you just buzz it to a 1, you have a full frontal hair line with no recession. No one will notice the thinner spots since it's so short, unless you go out your way to point them out.

you reckon? i have 6 weeks holidays coming up might be a good time. Just have a few moles on my scalp which might show through :(.
what about a 2 on top and 1 on sides? should i do it myself?

2 on top and 1 on side is good. Look at pics of john cena's hair, something like that. Go to a good barber just on the off chance you mess it up you don't want to look dumb. And having short hair like that with a fitted hat is more presentable anyway. If you dont like the way it looks you're hair will grow back to what you have in 6 weeks for sure. Thats all my opinion anyway, it's worth a shot, what do you have to lose
Any guys experiencing increased facial hair? Peach fuzz on ears are dense as **** and hair just all over face getting thicker. Beard and eyebrows are growing faster too lol
