    I agree with Johny41, you should choose based on the manufacturer instead of whether it's generic or not. When it comes to hair loss both generics and propecia both have proven to be effective.

    I'm interested to see your results after about 3 months of using topical fin. I agree with not taking pills for long term, but like you said there isn't a whole lot of information or study on topical fin. I would assume to spray it on before you go to bed and then maybe spray it on when you wake up. Did the instructions let you know how often to apply the topical fin each day?

    The shop you go to should make a custom hair piece that fits your head so the hair clip doesn't feel as if it's going to pull your hair out. Your biggest decision is if you would want to go with a human hair piece or a synthetic one. Going with a human hair piece is more expensive but you'll be able to style it differently and it will last you a longer time.

    I didn't know you can leave toppik in that long. Why did you say it wasn't the best idea if it looks better?

    I've seen those infomercials too and thought they were a scam as well. I'm really interested in giving OCT a go. What's the full price you paid for it?

    MSM 1000mg Biosil Toco-8 Ginkgo Biloba 120mg Nettle root Silica 200mg Becareful using saw palmetto for hair loss as it can cause side effects like erectile dysfunction, stomach cramps, anxiety, diarrhea, and constipation.

    I've tried a number of supplements to help with my hair fall. One of the best ones is beta sitosterol. It's a phytosterol (plant sterol) that helps inhibit 5-alpha reductase, which is the enzyme that converts testosterone to DHT. I would start off with 60mg daily and increase the dosage from there.

    I think the last thing people are worried about right now is Trump's hair.

    Just washing your hair daily isn't enough to cause hair loss.

    I agree with fortune11 in that hair transplants normally pull forward any hair loss that's pending. Androgenic alopecia is not predictable.
