I used to use minoxidil for the temple area, the only reason I found it wasn't working great for me is because it was dripping down so much. I think if I used a Spray on version or foam, it would have been great.... Considering I HAD HAIR GROWING ON MY FOREHEAD/ above my eyebrow (didn't even know I had hair there!!! EEP). Also it gave me acne wherever it dripped on my skin..

While propecia has proven to work best on the crown of the head, I have spoken with some who have had results in the frontal lobe as well. It appears to be just as the others say; it really depends on the person.

In any case, from the current condition you describe, it certainly can't do anything but help!

Aren't there pretty crazy side effects from taking Propecia, and especially taking it longterm?

I would get an HT if I didn't have to take Propecia. All the side effect stories on here and elsewhere scare the heck out of me.

Most of the studies and literature have shown more results in the vertex (top) and crown areas (back) of scalp. Keep in mind that people can respond quite differently to the same medication.
DHT may not be the only cause of hairloss in every individual male. If it was Fin would work for everybody.
and I discover the positive use of M.gardson's method (twice daily in the morning and evening)
it's actually easier
