Hey bonker
I know you've had your issues with donor shockloss, and I'm sure it will work out, however, I'm just wondering if you did any scalp stretching exercises before your surgery? I don't know if that helps, but it seems like it would.
The big three I've always heard are Monoxidil, finasteride, and nizoral. But with the nizoral it's for the keto, so if revita has that plus other hair healthy products I'm wondering why it's not considered one of the big 3?
Why all the talk about nizoral when it sounds like revita is the samething with more hair healthy products in it? Why is it not considered one of the big 3?
Thats what scared me about dutasteride and nlocking type 1 is that it is founf in your brain. I know the FDA approved therefore theoretically its safe, Im just not smart enough for anything to efect my brain! LOL
Well Im not Bill but Ill answer the best i can.. had a doctor tell me the samething, I figured it was still better to pay for Proscar and make it last longer than a month. Anyway, when I wnt to get the prescription filled, insurance DID pay for it...FWIW;)
I'm in the same boat! I know I've chosen a great surgeon in Dr Rahal, but I'm having to wait till January so I can use all my vacation. The anticipation is the worst. But it's still part of the whole process so you just have to deal with it!
Hangin there spanker...if you are only a 2 or 3 then you are still in good shape for a HT. I would try not o hit the panic button and stop the meds cause then you may see a real bad shed! hang in there, give it time!
Ive had several consults with coalition doctors...some say use rogaine as early as 3 days post op..some say wait 14 days post op..all of the doctors I have spoken with recommend using it though..AND THEY ALL HAVE OUTSTANDING RESULTS! I think its just a matter of preference from your doctor. Ive never heard of the cocunut oil, Ive heard of vitamin e oil but not cocunut..again I think its best to follow your doctors instructions!
You know the old saying " when something sounds to good to be true " I think this is one of those instances! If there were a major breakthrough in hair harvesting I think most people on this site would know about it.
