Hi All, Can any one throw some light on the difference between mintop 5% and mintop 10%? Logically speaking 10% should be more effective than 5%. So should one start directly with mintop 10% for better results? Cheers ! Maddy

Thanks ! Am now wondering how to cut those tiny tablets further ! :-D

Hey Thanks, Sounds logical to me. I am presently on a multi vitamin regime along with 10 % Minoxidil solution. I am planning to start finasteride if the results don't appear in 4-5 months. Regarding HT, I am a little confused. I feel I am somewhere stuck in between. I have curly hair and they more or less compensate for the lack of hair density. I look balding in short hair (as you can see in the picture), but with longer hair, the baldness is not too obvious. Regards, Maddy

Hi, My 1st post on this wonderful forum ! I have been a sufferer from hair loss since my mid twenties (25 to be precise). During the initial years of hair shedding, I had used finpecia 1mg (Finasteride) for approximately 8 months. The results were satisfactory and I quit using it after that. I was unaware of its side effects and thankfully I did not experience any side effects either. Post my 30's I have been observing a steady deterioration of my hair line. The hair have become thinner and I have started losing hair both at the front and on the vertex as well. I am planning to restart Finasteride capsules again. But now having read so many side effects, I am feeling a little hesitant. Have their been cases where someone who has initially not faced any side effects may have such side effects later ? I am 33 years now and there has been a gap of 8 years. Can I be a contender for side effects because age is not by my side as it was 8 years ago? Best Regards, Maddy
