Regular Member vbcbc Posted April 22, 2003 Regular Member Share Posted April 22, 2003 Im going to see a doctor (regular GP) on Thursday regarding getting a prescription for propecia and I have a few questions... 1) After getting prescribed for the drug, should I order off the internet? or do I have to go via the chemist? 2) Where is the cheapest/most reliable place/site to get propecia - Considering I live in the UK. 3) Is it best to try it for a year? What results should I expect if I use it for 1 year. I'm thinning on top a bit, but can still style my hair using a centre parting, but it's getting way way too thin. 4) Are their any *important* questions I should ask the doctor? For all those with experience, what do you suggest? 5) What's your opinion on Toppik - is it any good? 6) Do you regard propecia a must? What if the (maybe clueless) doctor tries to tell me otherwise. I'm certain it is MPB, meaning propecia is the answer, no? etc. 7) How much does a H/T cost these days? To anyone living in England.. thanks to all... Mike bcvbc bcvbc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member NW Posted April 22, 2003 Senior Member Share Posted April 22, 2003 Hey Mike, I can help with 2 of your questions, based on my own experience anyways: -Propecia, Is the best product available for 8/10 guys w/MPB, it is slow to kick in so give it 1 year, you may not notice a thing right away, as hard as it is, be patient. The main improvement is its holding power, not a ton of new hair. -Toppik, This stuff is the most natural and awsome stuff I have ever used, it is most effective if you at least have some thinning hair, I used it post-op on my crown and it saved me till the trimmed area grew back. You may have to experiment with the different colors etc.. I wish you the best ! NW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
