ajdxps Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Hey guys I am new here. I am a 19 year old guy.I noticed my hiar thinning a year back.I tried to ignore it like everyone else.Recently more and more are telling me that i m going bald. So i decided to do something about this.I consulted a dermatologist .She prescribed to me a solution named Morr-F .It is 5% minoxidil and 0.1% finasteride. I just wanted to ask will topical finasteride work? And now that i know about its side effects,should i discontinue it and use just minoxidil?

Senior Member JustOne Posted July 27, 2012 Senior Member Share Posted July 27, 2012 If you really want to keep what you have , I suggest picking up a big bottle of nizoral shampoo , take 1.25mg of finasteride Monday - Wednesday - Friday, and buy a generic version of minox 5% and use this Morning and night . To be honest apply minox twice a day is simple, i use it before i brush my teeth ... takes about a minute each time . They call this "the big 3" . Its the most proven way to battle MPB . Keep checking updates on the forums and learn about the future of hair loss ect. . Take it easy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajdxps Posted July 28, 2012 Author Share Posted July 28, 2012 Now that I have read about the side-effects of finasteride I am reluctant to use it. Is topical finasteride as harmful as the tabs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neil57 Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 I buy finasteride from this site (promotional link removed) they've never required a prescription so its convenient to get compared to going to your doctor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried Finasteride 1mg per day.. stopped after a month as soon as my 30 tablets ended. Though it does give results but i guess my sexual life is more important than my hairs at age 20 !!! I started using Nizoral 2% last week & using rogaine foam since a month. Expecting results atleast from the big 2 !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member uribo Posted November 20, 2013 Regular Member Share Posted November 20, 2013 (edited) Have a look at this paper: Comparing the therapeutic effects of finasteride gel and tablet in treatment of the androgenetic alopecia Hajheydari Z, Akbari J, Saeedi M, Shokoohi L - Indian J Dermatol Venereol Leprol Good study that coincides with my positive experience using the tablets in my shampoo. Will be nice the day they come up with a commercial option but this is where I order it until they do Edited May 23, 2014 by Admin External promotional links removed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member soonsa Posted June 7, 2014 Regular Member Share Posted June 7, 2014 (edited) still no commercial application I guess. I also do what uribo did and buy the finasteride without a prescription at http://www.trustworthymedicine.com Edited June 14, 2014 by soonsa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
