  1. Hi Cured,

    Do you have any photographic evidence to back up what you are stating here?.

    Unfortunately this forum has a fair degree of cynics (myself included) which would require hard evidence in order to consider this.

    Does any one else have experience of this use of Dutas?.

    Hello,

     

    Nope, I'm taking 0.25mg. A quarter of a 1mg tablet. As mentioned on Wikipedia.

     

    I have been thinking about Rogaine. Do people think that Finasteride can maintain hair grown due to Rogaine? I can take the Finasteride forever - but not sure I want to apply potion forever. I must be less dedicated than a lot of blokes on here!.. or maybe I'm just getting started!?

     

    Bye for now,

    Bravo Openstar,

    i to have decided to go down the quarter 1mg dose road, also using standard 5% minoxidil twice a day.

    I shall look forward to your photo updates.

  4. Mans,

    the FDA approved amount per day of propecia is 1mg.

    So this is the amount you should take if you expect to have any benefit regarding your hairloss.

    Having said this there are posters on this forum who are also taking half a dose.

    Give it a year and judge if this amount is of benefit to you.

    I agree it should be denser but another procedure could fix that

    15. My final comments / advice / speculation that may have been missed in the questions above:

    Keeping fingers crossed

  7. Healthy hair on average grows at about a half an inch on a monthly basis.

    If the hair was pulled out along with the roots then i would imagine trauma would have taken place to the area involved.

    A period of healing would need to take place before any growth would resume.

    I think you would be best advised to see a dermatologist to dispel any worries you may have.

  8. Hey

     

    i live in the UK and could definitely benefit from a FREE HT.

    Any chance of it being with Hasson and Wong and throwing in free air travel and loggings also ( SHY BAIRNS GET NOTHING,as they say in my part of the world!)
