I have a second derm appt tomorrow- I met with a derm 2 weeks ago who was willing to write the script but just for the sake of reassurance I'm meeting with another (didn't want to just jump on it right when the first person would write me it). I've been thinning for 2 years and it's getting worse so I think it's time to pull the trigger. Thinking about starting with .5 mg/day to let the body adjust

Just curious how your sides were over the 15 years? I Just turned 25 and am considering propecia as I am thinning more and more

How long have you been on fin and when did you start to notice this? Is it serious enough to consider stopping propecia? If you had surgery, is there a chance it would just come back?

I just didn't know if using it with minox would give Ya a good shot a regrowth/thickening

I'm 25 and started thinning 2 years ago- I hopped on minox right away but the thinning has slowly continued. If I add in fin with minox, what are the chances I could get my hair back to how it was 1-2 years ago? I realize everybody is different- my thinning a has been mostly in the crown and corners- no bald spots just overall thinning. Hairline has receded just a little, mostly in corners. Just curious as to typical results? Looking at pictures from just 1-2 years ago and my hair looked amazing compared to now

Really just curious here- I know everybody's different but I would love to hear from a longtime user who has experienced no sides or very minimal ones

Thanks for your input- what exactly has it done for your hair compared to the condition of it when you started? Also do you think the chest fat could be reduced by exercise/diet? Or just sort of something that's there no matter what

Enough that it's noticeable by others? Obviously not problematic enough for you to stop since its been 7 years? I'm at a point where if I am going to start propecia it needs to be now, as my thinning is getting worse. If I could just keep what I have and thicken it up the crown, I would be happy. Anything on hairline would be a bonus. Any other sides you noticed/suggestions for somebody considering starting?

Interesting- never used that before. I guess with all of the horror stories online, you forget how many people take the drug with no problems whatsoever. I'm really just concerned about the long term effects as I'm only 25- but the thinning is killing me

Can anybody provide some data or studies here as this is probably my biggest concern and I need to make a decision soon if I'm hopping on Fin- thanks guys

Im ok with a dip in libido or some watery/ish semen but not with any degree of gyno. I'm a muscular guy who works out and has a bigger chest naturally- can anybody provide some clinical/data here on gyno and propecia?

I'm 25 and pretty muscular- gain muscle fairly easily in the gym. That being said, I do have a fairly large chest/ above average nipple size- would this increase my chance at all of getting gyno? I have been reading a little about gyno but really I am a novice when it comes to it- just curious as I am considering propecia.

I have been using minox for 2 years and I think I have maximized its usage. Now if I add fin, is there a better chance of regrowth/thickening using the minox as well as opposed to fin alone? I wouldn't consider stopping minox use, but I guess my question is will the minox have a shot of being more effective than now by using them together? I know everybody is different but just curious in terms of expectations- by using both how often does it just maintain what you have and how often is there regrowth?

Just looking for reassurance of a few different areas as I am leaning closer towards trying fin- can anybody chime in with stories or data on this one? Thanks guys

im actually from CA not GA- not sure if that works here too. Im in medical sales and i study clinical papers/adverse events all the time so that's why im taking this with extra precaution. Can you guys let me know whatever the most recent paper on propecia is? I heard of the one study which look at post propecia sufferer's with symptoms from an online forum which i believe seems fairly biased since that essentially is the group that experiences AE's (the 2% or whatever # the package insert indicates" I think the study said like 80% of these guys had low libido and 80-90% had difficulty with erections but these are the very few who experience side effects so i think it can be taken with a grain of salt
