Hi Guys,
Just want to share my results with you I have been taking 1mg of finpecia and using rogaine foam twice daily sine Oct of last year so about 4-5 months, I started with kirkland minox but it was just too greasey, but rogaine foam is excellent to use on a day to day basics been on that about 6 weeks here is a pic before any treatment And taken today ![]() Pretty happy overall and using nizoral every other day only 1% though, shall i just carry on as I am or is there any other things to add. Regards Oliver |

That's probs the best result I've ever seen. I would stick with what your doing mate. I only hope I get the same result as I'm using exactly what you are. I started with Kirkland Minox as well. When I changed to Foam I started shedding (still am I think) I'm about 8 weeks into using the foam and 4 weeks into using Finpecia so fingers crossed. I think I'll get some MSM. Congrats anyway mate !! |

Very impressive results! I'm thinking of adding a topical to my routine as well. Anyone ever heard of Prox-N or any other of Dr. Proctor's products? I'd be grateful for any views!

Hi mate I get my msm here http://www.revital.co.uk/product_search.cfm?searchString=msm
lamberts brand and free p&p also have seen a few of your posts, are you still doing 0.5mg of finpecia maybe worth uping to 1 mg if you have no sides, I havent had any sides. might slow your shed That's probs the best result I've ever seen. I would stick with what your doing mate. I only hope I get the same result as I'm using exactly what you are. I started with Kirkland Minox as well.

Looks like you are a great responder to meds, well done! You have responded early as well! Give it 6 more months on the meds then look into a possible HT in the front if needed

Hi Northwest,
Thanks for the link, I've ordered some MSM today. Yes i'm still using 0.5mg of fin at the moment. Might up it soon. Thanks for the advice. In regards to the MSM, do you take 2x 1000mg tablets a day or every other day or what? |

Thanks for all your comments guys
Like you said I will give it another 6 months and then review my options, HT is abit scary so I would be over the moon if I can get a little more thicker at the front from just meds but I wont rule out the HT as well some results I have seen are amazing, but is going to the states the only option?, i hear only bad storys about UK centres, seems a gap in the market for a good Dr! where do u get yer finpecia form northwest m8? Dont think I can post drug sites can I? but if you google Finpecia its the 3rd result opposite of outhouse |

Im on proscar take half a tab monday, wednesday, friday. Ive also been taking pil food which is mean to help with hair but theres no way of stopping this, as soon as it gets that bad i cant disguise it then im afraid the whole lot will be getting shaved, i dont understand people that walk about with bald spots clearly in view with the old mushroom shape round their head, its a mess. |

Got my hair cut today, and the barber asked if i wanted to keep all the new hairs coming out of my hairline I was very I did get him to shave them, so it would be easeir to apply the rogaine foam, to get even more of them |

Well it's been a year since I started the "Big 4" allthough recently I havent been
talking the MSM but will order somemore soon, Also I havent used nizarol for about two months, I have been using Vosene shampoo cause It can be used dailey and it's only £1.29 at tesco not really noted any shed because of the change Still taking finpecia dailey and applying Rogaine foam mostly twice dailey anyway heres the pics a year in, not a full recovery but I would say I am very happy with the maintance and some regrowth |
