I do not want to jynx myself, but for all of you young guys who are going bald and considering trying propecia/rogaine, I'd recommend it. I am almost 25 and have been on propecia and rogaine for about 3 months....I've noticed a pretty dramatic increase in the overall thickness of my hair, and I have considerable growth so far along the hairline. The shedding has become minimal (maybe 10 hairs in the shower and 10 when styling), which is much different than the 100s I was losing before. The only side I had was watery semen, and that is gone. I'll need to find some pictures of before I started the treatment, and then upload some where I am at now. Anyways, stick with it - some of us get lucky and do get good results.

I will say that my temples have receeded since being on the meds. Im just starting to notice it. The hair on the back of my head is getting thicker.....hair on the front isnt coming in much thicker, but i am noticing small baby hairs growing. Its too soon to tell...Im shedding A LOT less than i have been the last too months so that is a good sign.

Thanks for the input Bill, I literally started taking meds a few months after i noticed the thinning. I've heard stories that young guys like myself may actually be able to have great results if they catch it in time - im hoping that this is the case with me. I took some pictures from about a month in...I will post my 6 month results when I hit the milestone

So I have been on propecia and rogaine for 2 months. I'm starting to see small, 1/2 inch hairs sprouting from my hairline and i think all over the top of my head. Im 24. Did anyone else have this experience after 2 months - I heard it should take longer for that to happen? I'd like to hear any of your 2 month experiences on the drugs to give me an idea if im in for great results, or if this is just a temporary thing or all in my head. Thanks

Hey guys, I'm just over day 30 of starting propecia and rogaine foam, and have a question about my hair shedding. The hair that comes easily from my head a month ago didnt have white bulbs at the end - just looked the same from top to bottom. Now the hairs that fall out are starting to show little white bulbs. Does this mean that the meds might be working already?

My doctor who put me on propecia requested that i get my thyroid checked via a TSH. He is just a GP, so does this mean he's trying to cover his ass instead of just giving me the pills? Whatre the chances that my thyroid can cause my hairloss?

Hey guys - Im 24 and started taking Propecia and Rogaine foam about 25 days ago - have a couple questions/concerns. 1. I feel like I am going through a "shed," but am not sure. I was shedding hair before starting to use the medications, but am now loosing about twice as much hair in the shower as before - temples are receding more. Is this normal? 2. Despite the shedding, when my hair is wet it actually looks thicker and I feel like im seeing less of my scalp than 25 days ago. Is it possible this soon, or is it just the "placebo" effect? 3. When I ejaculate, its more liquid than usual. Is this due to a decrease in semen production? Is this something I should be concerned about - or should I troop on and re-evaluate at 6 months? Thanks

Hey guys - Im new to this. I am a 24 year old male who's hair has been thinking very very rapidly. I noticed my hair receeding a bit in June of 08, but I still had a pretty thick head of hair. I then got a haircut early Nov of 08. The stylist cut it pretty short and I could notice my receeding hairline, but could not notice the thinning. It has been just over 2 months since that haircut. I had to get the sides cut twice before I go the top cut once. Its like my hair stopped growing. And it has thinned to a dramatic level where I can see my scalp. The other night I shook my hair and lost probably 200 hairs. Is this a normal acceleration of male pattern baldness? If so i feel as if i'll go from thick hair to bald in 3 months. Any help?
