Rogaine and Propecia Shedding

[guyfromsydney]

Does it make sense to anyone to take rogaine, get some growth and then revert to propecia to maintain that growth? Or there is no point taking rogaine for only a short period of time?

 

 

 

I know both of these products are usuually only effective for the crown of the head rather than the hairline. Does this mean that shedding will only occur on the crown? or is the shedding experienced all over the head?

 

 

Does anyone have any pictures of the extent of the shedding they experienced when taking these products.

guyfromsydney,

 

First of all rogaine isnt very effective by itself and you may not regrow any hair from it alone. It is most effective when used with propecia

 

Secondly any hair you grow from rogaine will fall out if you discontiue its use. Even if your on propecia youll lose the rogaine hairs

The Giant is right

 

Some people have said that minoxidil is very effective but it is few and far bewtween. Any meds you take you will lose the benefits gained if you stop taking it.

 

Personally, I am a fan of propecia.
