Marc,

Thank you for creating a Propecia photo album. Be sure also to take a "top down" picture that shows a picture of the full top of your head including the crown. This will help you track your progress a bit better.

I look forward to following your progress.

You may also want to consider adding Rogaine (minoxodil) into your regime which when used together with Propecia gives you the best chance of regrowing hair.

Bill

P.S. I changed the title of your photo album to "Propecia
Album - Tracking My Hair Growth"

Bill:

Thanks for the tip. I'm actually considering getting an HT done in the near future and be done with hair loss for good. I figure if I get the HT and stay on the Fin, then I should be good for life. What do you think?

There is never a guarantee with hair loss medication. It's very possible that it will help you fight against future hair loss and might even regrow hair, but it is not guaranteed. It is also possible that it will work for awhile but might lessen in positive effect over time.

Transplanted hair is forever which is the good news. But formulating a long term hair restoraton plan with your hair transplant doctor is imperative to long term success.
