Anyone knows if the specialists at NSC will prescribe finasteride upon request? My frontal thinning is not severe at all actually quite mild if not unnoticeable, but I can "feel" from past experience that I am prone genetically (or maybe I just have a naturally high hairline) so I'd like to go on a prevention dosage. Will I be turned down from obtaining the drug? Thanks

They’ll ask you to try minoxidil first. Then go back after 3 months to see if it helps. Then the doctor will advise you to try Finasteride after that

Must it be their prescribed Minoxidil? I just bought my own and am going to use for 3 months. Can I see them after 3 months of usage and say that I would also like to be on Finasteride just to be safe. Combination therapy is apparently the best anyway.

Would there be some balding standard to hit before specialists are allowed to prescribe it? Lol, cannot take preventative measures one?

1 mg is sufficient as a suppresent of the excess DHT produced. Remember, alot of the hormones that are responsible for hairloss is also responsible for making you a Man.

Studies show over dosing on such medications may result in breast formation etc.

On a side note i have a couple of boxes of proscar (5mg) avail if any bros want to buy. Bought in SG local doc.

Selling at cost, exp is Nov 2019.

Got from the local distributor Fung & Goh. Think the the band is better. Combining it with proper diet, see how it goes. God willing, report back in a few months

Have 4-5 months worth of generic finasteride to let go of. Expiry 2021. Need to cut into smaller pieces but it's easy. Bought a bit extra. $60, interested DM.

Cant remember about $1200 for the hairmax laserband. Hairmax doesnt have a full helmet. IMO, full helmet doesnt part the hair to allow the laser to hit the scalp like the laserband.

Is it safe to do in Thailand though? ... I did teeth whitening there - quite painful as sensitive and no result.
