Hope this helpsEffectiveness of PROPECIA
In the longest reported controlled clinical study of men with certain types of male pattern hair loss, 2 out of 3 men on PROPECIA regrew hair, as measured by actual hair counts over time. Whereas all men in the study taking a placebo (not PROPECIA) lost hair.
Important Information About PROPECIA
In clinical studies for PROPECIA, a small number of men experienced certain sexual side effects, such as less desire for sex, difficulty in achieving an erection, or a decrease in the amount of semen. Each of these side effects occurred in less than 2% of men and went away in men who stopped taking PROPECIA because of them.
PROPECIA is for the treatment of male pattern hair loss in MEN ONLY and should NOT be used by women or children.
When you could see results
Take PROPECIA daily and you could see results in as little as 3 months. If you stop taking PROPECIA, however, your results will gradually go away over 12 months. And if PROPECIA hasn’t worked in 12 months, further treatment is unlikely to be of benefit.
Although results will vary, generally you will not be able to grow back all the hair you have lost.

I'm seeking information about a drug call Finasteride (aka Propecia), for you guys who don't know Finasteride is used to treat hair loss in men.
My hair has started to falling out lately and with every male in my famly lossing his hair young, I did a bit of research about different types of treatments and the one recommended by everyone is a drug called Finasteride, I just want to know if anyone else on the form uses it or knows anything about it. Does it work, where do you get it, how much is it, you know all the normal questions.
Cheers
Michael

You are really brilliant! Not what you would call the brightest bulb in the chandelier though. Why bother to post the link to the same Propecia site when it was already linked in my original response. You even wrote the same infor that I quoted from the site. And you registered just to do that?
Oh dear me, I don't think it is ego, more of indifference, like saying if you don't like me for who i am, or for how i look now, that's hard luck! At 57 I'm starting also to thin on top, no bald patch yet, although at 16 i found my first grey hair, and thought it had something to do with working in the building industry, cement and lime and all that, by the time i was 25 i was quite distinguished looking, it bothered other people more than myself, although only to the extent, they wanted to experiment with colours, while i was sleeping! After a heavy night on the boozs one night awaking to find my hair dyed, I decided to keep it that colour for a few months and dyed it once or twice myself, until I realised that I was indifferent, about it, and thought saving the money was more of an asset!earthfriendly wrote:Nothing wrong with fixing a physical trait that bothers you.

It is fine 80 % of the time since he is much taller than me and the spot not visible. Trouble starts when we are in bed and my pillow's positioned higher than his. It was somewhat invisible until I get my lasik done 2 years ago and now it's all clear to me now. Ignorance (myopia?) is bliss, sometimes.
I have 2 photographs on my mantle and they do nothing to assuage me fear. On the right is his paternal grandfather with full head of hair in his ripe old age and to the left, a photo of his maternal grandfather. And guess what ?
The thing to do is for him to have a tattoo on his head, saying this is earthfriendly, and natural!It is fine 80 % of the time since he is much taller than me and the spot not visible.

Well true love never runs smooth my dear! Be thankful for what you have, it could be worse!

So blow drying your hair is related to your nick? 50$ for a good sheep shearing tool will do the trick, and I'm sure you have the looks, that the guys won't even notice! Besides your personality takes the limelight too, you know! Try bald for a couple of months,, but only your head !Wind In My Hair wrote:Everyday.sundaymorningstaple wrote:Don't tell me........................A bad hair day?
I just calculated. 5 minutes a day of blow-drying my unruly hair (so it looks half decent) for the next 40 years is a staggering 1216 hours or 50.6 days... The alternative is re-bonding twice a year at $200 each time for the next 40 years... $16,000. You guys should be glad you have no hair. Think of all the time and/or money you save!
On another irrelevant note (sorry OP I have no experience with hair growth lotions), I wonder if baldness is evolutionary, now that we don't need so much hair to keep warm, what with clothes and global warming and all that. Perhaps it's a matter of time before everyone will be bald?
Ha ha, quick eye today, ksl. I didn't even see the connection. No, my nick is when I'm on the water in a speeding boat, without a care in the world, and the last thing I'd be thinking about is looking decent for clients. Too bad I'm not on a boat everyday...ksl wrote:So blow drying your hair is related to your nick?
