if you mean .5 mg, then yes that should be sufficient enough depending on whether the drug actually works for you or not.

keepingwhatihave... Did you ask Dr. Greco to put you in contact with some of his happy patients?

You have to realize that there is a very small amount of people on propeciahelp.com.... and that the things that happen to them are pretty rare... I wouldnt recommend anyone to go on there who is worried about taking propecia.. Those people just bring you down. You also have to realize that most people do not have any side effects whatsoever.... Worrying about taking the drug just makes things worse... Its better just to be a little cautious and keep an eye out for side effects... if you have some bad side effects just stop taking the drugs.. or try to wait it out and they may disapeer...

hdude, I believe rayray said he was between a nw 2-3, on another thread.

I had the treatment 3 weeks ago, nothing to report yet..

what was his age/nw ?

I'm beginning to think the same thing, however I need to think positive because Ive undergone the treatment!

and your Norwood level too? thanks..

Yes that makes sense to me. If you say your hairloss is to strong that could be why it didnt work. the results that dr feller had posted were on guys who were middle aged and still had a vast amount of hair, such as myself, although i am quite young.

thank you very much rayray for your input..im sorry to hear it hasnt worked out for you.. i had it 3 weeks ago tomorrow.

Has anyone ever tried applying propecia topically? I did a little research on it and I guess it has worked for some people who had bad side effects before.. So if anyone has tried this or is doing this I would like to pick at their brain.... or if you have any information on it at all would be helpful.

Thanks.

AJ have you noticed any changes to your hair at all yet? thicker, less falling out etc...

your body still may be adjusting to the medication, it may level out and things will return to normal.. if thats the only side effect you are noticing I wouldnt be to concerned.

you think you bought it off ebay? haha?

well you just confuse everyone because you say that your hair felt thicker.. then you say its falling out...

What I don't get is why did you start back on the mess if you are looking foe prp results... If u were having good success with fin, your hair will thicken up from thAt... This making it difficult to see if prp helped you...

What are these doctors names rach? I read on another forum site and Dr. Greco said he has performed over 300 prp treatments, also i know I was Dr. Fellers 40th PRP patient.. I asked him how many of his patients had experienced good results? I believe he said 7 or so have contacted him, the rest have not said anything and he was reluctant to get in touch with them by phone because he didnt his family may not know they had undergone a treatment.. but i havnt heard of anyone bashing prp as far as saying they got no results. Tho I know greco has said that it doesn't work for everyone..

I can not take propecia due to side effects...so for me.. an eternity.

not a clue, i dont take fin.

Dr. Feller I believe will.. hes located in the Great Neck area..

2015 is still pretty far off.

I was very happy with the results on my hair....much thicker, healthier, fuller hair... and didn't experience any loss after taking the drug... unfortunately, after 9 months i stopped because the side effects were to bad... but as far as the results on my hair i was very very satisfied...

correct me if i'm wrong tom, but you said you've only been off propecia for 1 month? If so..... ive been off propecia for 4 months.. and my hair didnt start thinning and looking like crap till after the 3rd month....

A very good improvement and only 2.5 months..
