    Thanks for the reply guys much appreciated. Another question I wanna ask, is there a ''best time'' take the Propecia? or is there isn't much difference. Usually take it in the morning when I wake up. Thanks

    just a bit spooked. From 10+ to like 30+ is kinda scary... When do you know if it no longer works? say like....if you stop taking propecia and you shed the same amount? guess no one wants to take that risk right?

    So around 2 yrs ago I decided to try out on propecia and it stopped the shedding pretty much after few days. Fast forward 2 years later today, I've noticed that around 25-30 hairs in my hand while showering compared to like 10 max. Maybe I am overreacting but it is really a drastic change. Has the finasteride stopped kicking in? Has my body become accustomed to it? Should I try a different brand of finasteride? I mean, if my body has become accustomed to it, when do I decide to stop taking it? because I feel like I'm wasting my money. Of course stopping the dosage of Propecia the shedding may become more severe... Help............

    don't think I've had any gains but it sure did halted the shedding for a full year. sigh....

    So after taking propecia after a year I've noticed that the drug has started to loose its effect. Hair is shredding back to its initial phase..so what do I do from now? I've been taking 1mg everyday since and now started on 1.5mg. After about 2 weeks it's still shedding as much and I am clueless on what to do now, I am not contemplated on 2mg due to the ''side effects'' that may cause and financially (I live in the UK and the drug is expensive as f). Advice from personal experiences are much appreciated.

    Hi, I've been experiencing some shedding lately and I'm thinking about taking some meds to halt the further hair loss. My hair is pretty long and thick at the moment and i usually have it down swooped across my face but I've read that when starting fin or minox you will experience A LOT of shedding in the initial phase which isn't ideal as of now because I start my new job very soon...and my job requires a lot of meetings with clients etc so...as you can imagine it would really really put me off going to work. What do you all think?

    did you guys take meds before HT? and what are your thoughts on the side effects etc? I heard Dr Diep highly recommends taking them but I also heard a few of his patients stopped taking them due to sides but their hair still looks fine. What are your takes on this?

    Apple cider vinegar. I've tried it once and it seems to work. Give it a try

    great results! I've been watching his videos on youtube for quite some while now but only reason why I'm having second thoughts is because I am based in the UK too and flying to LA would seem quite pricey for me atm. Do you mind telling me how much you spent on the whole expenses for your HT? Many thanks.
