How can a doctor do that many transplants in one day? That means they are not doing the work, and having their assistants doing most of it, correct?

That looks like a really nice result. 

How does the back of your head feel? CAn you tell that you had surgery back there? Tight, pain, anything?

Thank you for sharing.

Was all that brown debris normal after a hair transplant? Ouch??

This is exactly what I was talking about in the article. $199 gets you a 3 month supply of vitamins and propietary blends of “complexes” code word for junk. 

Back to my original question, do they have studies to support this? I'm trying to find them specifically for this product. But seems far fetched.

I started finasteride and have had no problems!!  My sig has noticed no difference so I'll stay on it. Yes, I'ave been doing a ton of reading on this and some are legit, some are overblown. I'll see in 6 months.

As Fozzie said, there's no way to know for sure how your body will respond until you take a chance and take it. Personally, based on research, data, and just anecdotally following this forum for several years, I think it's much more likely that you won't experience sides - and I say that as someone who stopped taking it due to side effects. I used to take the 5mg tablet and cut in into 1/4s as you mentioned (although this is more to make it more affordable than anything else), and after a couple of years, I decided to stop. Even though there's a risk of side effects, the medication does work, so if you want to give it a go, my advice would be to start with a 1.25mg either daily or every other day and then take it like a vitamin and forget about it throughout the day, so as to try and prevent you creating side effects in your head that may not be there. And I suggest to do this under a doctor's supervision so they can tweak the dosage as needed should you run into any issues. 

Why did you stop?

How long do those little bumps last at the hairs?

Not sure why alcohol would effect the results? Anyone with info?

I'll look for lipgaine and see what that's about. I've been using minoxidil for years. I like the kirkland foam.

I'll have my gf take some shots. My hair loss is not huge, but bothersome.

What’s your opinion on Nutrafol, Bill & Melvin?

Pretty expensive bullshit in a bottle in my opinion.

Does the company have anything to back up their claim?

What about hats? Can wearing a hat (not tight) cause my hair loss? I really like wearing a baseball cap and it can rub on my hair. 

I heard the hairs shed - why? I want them to be lush and happy after they are moved. Is there something I can do to stop that as that will make me really nervous.

Is there any truth to coconut oil? My friend from India puts that stuff on his head and swears by it.

I agree with BeHappy and delancey. I was surprised at the video as I would have seen that all over the news, and then I found it was manipulated - you lose the point you were trying to make.

Wow: I need a drink just thinking about having this done.

I think the hairline looks great and it flows well. I agree: why mess with something that looks really nice. 

I have an older car, and a few years ago it was running well. I brought it to my trusty mechanic to try to make it run even better: regret that decision as it has never run the same. Good mechanic, great intentions...poor outcome. I blame no one except myself.

I'm 37. 

Where do I get that, and what is it?

Is there a machine that can be used to help select the thick ones from the thin ones? 

I"m glad I found this site. I've been worried about my hair and losing it for a long time. I've been shopping on the web and learned about Propecia, but I'm worried about all the side effects I read. I've read that people cut up a 5 mg tab which can be also help. Does anyone know if I do less then 1 mg a day if the side effects still occur. I want to stop the hair loss, but I'm not sure I want to take the meds.
