I believe they pay the entire years worth. You can ask your doctor for the brochure which has the 12 month promise in it. I have not had anybody apply for a refund.

This way you all can honestly see from a NON-merchant, non-biased, completely and utterly true pictures from a 19 year old pothead who is trying to keep his hair lol. take it easy i thought itd be intresting becasue all the propecia pics that i see that are succesful come straight out of Mercks asshole.
Jupiter: Can you please tell us exactly where you apply the minoxidil and what kind you use? I understand the crown has thickened up nicely but has the minox caused the front to thicken up? Are you only applying the minox on the temples and crown. Thanks!-Tim

Propecia does have a 12 month money back guarantee if you see no results.
I don't think that makes Jupiter feel any better Dr. Mejia.

Jupiter,

Get back on finasteride. It's the only advice I can give you. At the very least, it is slowing down the MPB process.

What about hyperandrogenicity? In this case wouldnt getting on fin make it so your hair fell out at a more rapid pace? Jupiter... I believe I had the same problem, my hair was looking great for awhile and then at about 7-10 months out of nowhere my hair turned to crap. Do people here think this is a "shed" and it will grow back? My crown has never been thin, and now it is thin, I was using propecia for a receding hairline and to maintain and make my hair thicker all around. What does everyone think?
