Hey Richie,
That's really good progress you've had with the meds mate, which is very reassuring for me as I too started taking the same drug (Proscar) in December. I've always been skeptical when it comes to taking tablets in the treatment for hair loss, but seeing those pictures would certainly encourage me to stick with the Proscar. But is it true that Proscar is only effective in preserving hair at the crown and not the front? Or have you found it to be effective in maintaining a full head of hair?
Cheers
G

hi gtdl

Thanks for the comments bud

I beleive that proscar was only clinically tested on the crown results , so can only claim to help in the crown , however there are a few cases good results from the front .

I also think that the meds help in the places that havn't suffered hairloss as bad , and after a certain time your hair is beyond saving with meds .

for example , i lost most of my hair in the crown and the meds only had a little effect there , but over the top and front i had very good improvement , i believe this was due to my hairloss beeing less servere at the front and over the top .

I hope that makes sense

richie

Ah yeah, that makes sense Richie because when I started on the Proscar, I was told that it would be beneficial for me because I don't have much hair loss anyway (just a receding hairline or 'M' shaped one). So the meds really act more as a prevention than a cure to hair loss? Would I be right in saying that?

Hey gtdl

You are spot on , most users will get regrowth , but were you have the most hair , it's a preventative measure , preventing it getting worse .
