I am not sure if I have seborrheic dermatitis or scalp psoriasis. I have lots of skin build up in patches from crown to the front of my scalp and I have a very flaky scalp all over. And I have to scrape it out once in a month using comb. And few hair follicles come out along with it as they are attached to it. One of the dermatologists asked me to stop use of Rogaine and gave me some psoriasis shampoo and ointment. So if any of the guys had such experiences, can you please share how you solved it and also please advise on whether I should continue rogaine or just leave it. I am afraid I will lose the hairs that got used to rogaine. I am already quite bald and dont want to loose anymore. I am also on propecia. And I am also planning for HT in next 6 months but is it advisable to go for HT with these scalp conditions.

Hi, I am experiencing hair loss around temples. Is there any medicine like minoxidil for temple region. Or can I use minoxidil itself. Right now I am on propecia and minoxidil.

I have been rogaine/propecia for last 2 months now. Taking propecia is easy. So I am ok with taking it as long as I can. But I hate applying rogaine every night and morning. THe main problem is applying it for my whole life. But I am afraid if I stop it I will have more hair loss. So please advise if I should stop applying rogaine or not

Is it ok to use any generic ketaconzole 2% shampoo or should we use only Nizoral 2%?

Some questions on minoxidil usage: 1. Will it be of any help if I apply more than 1ml of minoxidil? 2. And is it like 1ml for each thinning area or overall? Like I have thinning on some part of the crown, little thinning spots towards the front and middle. So do I need to apply 1 ml to each of these spots? 3. Will it have any impact on areas other than crown?

Hi, I have been ruled out for HT for next 1 yr since I have some existing hair left. So I am using propecia in the mean time. But I have my brothers marriage coming up and I dont wanna go there with small bald patches. Are there any concealers which can create an illusion of density. I came across nanogen and kearsome. Has anybody used those products? Or should I get a hair system from hair club?

Hi, I have posted my scalp shots album. Please have a look at them: http://hair-restoration-info.com/eve/forums?a=albumtopi...1016143&f=2566060861. And let me know how many grafts would be needed. I have just started on propecia. Actually this is just after 2 weeks of hair cut. And also I had huge hair loss last week. So should I go for 6 months of propecia before asking for HT Thanks

Does anybody know how long does a follicle remain in sleeping phase before it permanently dies. I am asking this just to see if it makes any sense for me to apply minoxidil if the follicles are already dead. Is there anyway a physician can see if they are in sleeping pahse or gone forever.

Hi, I have recently started using minoxidil again after a break of 4 months. The reason I stopped it previously was because I thought I was losing more hair because of that. The actual reason was that I have lot of dandruff and when I applied minoxidil on top if that it caused flaking and I was losing hair because of that. And I stopped using minoxidil. And I lost my thick hair which got dependent on minoxidil and pushed myself into a place where I need a HT. So before going for HT my doc advised to get onto minoxidil for next 3-6 months. But its again causing flaking and I feel like my scalp is on fire whole day. I am losing a lot of hair everyday. So I am looking for a soothant which can reduce flaking. Any advises? I heard of this emu oil. But does that work. They even claim it does the same job as minoxidil. Is it true?

I am just curious to know what happens to the donor area after HT. Does hair grow back normally. Will there be any itching kind of thing?

Hi, I have only seen people saying propecia works. And I agree it works. But is there no one who had side affects with propecia? If yes, did they stop once you stopped using propecia. And people using propecia: Doesnt it worry u that you can never stop it. Since u might risk losing the hair. And does transplanted hair also get affected by propecia usage? I mean do you lose it if you stop propecia? And does propecia help retaining hair in the middle and front of the scalp? And is anyone taking any nutrition related medicines like Fabao 101 etc.What is the best medicine for selenium and zinc?
