This is super clear, I fully understand now. Thank you so much for this quick answer. Once again, what you did and still are doing is really encouraging for us who are planning to have their first hair transplantation. Best wishes from Germany Sebi

Dear Yaz, first of all, thank you so much for this wonderful encouraging thread you have created and maintained for such a long time. Could you please answer a few questions regarding the difference between finasteride and regaine. You wrote in the above message regarding regaine: "Personally, I wouldn't recommend regaine as once you stop using it, any hair which has grown will be lost forever." Then you went on and wrote regarding finasteride: "Finasteride has to be taken forever in order to maintain the hairs ... If finasteride is stopped, all hairs grown and all the hairs maintained by finasteride will be gradually lost. Finasteride is not a permanent solution to halt hair loss ... " Having quoted the above, I have the following questions: 1. "will be lost forever", "will be gradually lost": So aren't regaine and finasteride the same to the extent that once you stop taking either of those, those hair which's loss was halted by regaine/finasteride begin to fall? 2. I understand that either of these products primarily "block" the loss of hair which is supposed to fall out, correct me if I'm wrong. So, am I not better off taking e.g. regaine, because if I don't, hair which is supposed to fall out, falls out (much) earlier? Greetings from Germany Sebi
