Why don't you try Minoxidil??

Anyway, I have been 2 months into member's mark minoxidil and Fincar divided into 4parts. (per part daily). I have been shedding!!! OMG!! losing more hair but i heard its good and more and fuller hair will grow shortly a few months later. hah

Pray Pray...


Does anyone know when shedding starts and does it happen to minoxidil and Finasteride users the same ?

I started 1.25 mg of Proscar for one week and of course there's nothing so see so far. Just curious if there will be shedding and when that might start ????

Asymtope:

i think Avodart is doing something more then what proscar have done for me. how old are you?



Anakin1982:

i won't bother with Revivogen. Tricomin is a helpful additional product if your treatment already cover the basic stuffs like proscar.


wawa81:

at the price of 80bucks, you can just make a trip to JB or buy it locally. remember there is always a risk on buying drugs from internet. make sure the saving is worthy for you to take the risk. do a lot of research on the website you are buying from.

regrowth is basically the same stuff as rogaine.


missotah:

great! keep us update on the clinic. although i not too hopeful with it, i wish to be wrong this time.


Wilb87:

saw palmetto is not proven to work like propecia. blood serum test show that it does not reduce DHT like propecia. it might work as a local inhibitor. the bottom line is unclear whether does it help with hairloss although it is a good choice for prostate problem.

in army, you can survive with nizoral and propecia. minoxidil is possible for at least one application per day for most of the days if you don't mind people looking at you. for outfield you can still bring propecia out. don't bother to declare it. just don't drop it. i lost a total of 8pills during outfield. at $3 per pill, it alot to a NS man.


Velvet_CK:

don't give up now. things might be looking good in a couple of months time.

Went JB today, bought Proscar and Nizoral 2% shampoo. The shampoo is 40% cheaper than in s'pore. What the price of Proscar in s'pore? Cut the proscar pills into 6 parts but not all are equal. So I will be taking about 0.6-0.9 finasteride per day. :)

power to you pal! another JB fan as me :D

but do take care and don't stay longer than you should. it not really safe over there. just get your stuff and get out.

which pharmacy you got it from? i agree Nizoral is a steal compare to singapore. in singapore, Proscar is about $112-115 in singapore. price will go up this july:s27: more reason to visit malaysia 2007.

cutting proscar into 6parts is fine. personally i perfer to limit it to 5parts. but it seem like you know your stuffs. good luck to you pal.

yes. my hair is thin too. but as i wish to become a hairstylist nxt time. let me advice u. heh heh. yr hair may be thin . but isit healthy? u nid healthy hair. . if u wan volume. when u cut yr hair, don ever thinner it. and when u use clay(try nt to use gel) , apply on yr fingers .. rub it till with heat, and apply to yr hair ends and puush slightly upwards. that will create better volume. and use conditioner about once a day. that will protect yr hair. but jus apply to the end , not roots. and wash off properly =]

I stayed less than 1 hr. After buying my stuff, I came back to S'pore.

Exchange S$100 to RM$222.

I bought both from Apex Pharamacy. Proscar cost RM$192 and Nizoral 2% RM$31.

Still sort of RM$1, why don't they give me RM$1 discount? :s27:

So I bought the Proscar first and went to the money changer exchange S$50 to RM$110, lose RM$1. :s27:

I return and bought the shampoo. Any place in JB that we can buy Proscar and Nizoral shampoo cheaper? :)

i not sure. but i think mypharamacy should be slightly cheaper. i got my nizoral for RM27.50. not sure about proscar. that the cheapest i can find in JB. hopefully can find some place better.

the exchange rate does not look too good. it keep increasing since last year. last nov is around 1 : 2.32

just order rogaine foam on Ebay. 3months supply for $29.99 + $18.00 shipping. price in USD.

turn out to be slightly less than $27 Sing per month.


Iso, can u pm me the link to order rogaine foam. Is it 5% version?
I think I wanna start on rogaine. Been propecia for more than a yr, I doesn't experience hair growth, only slow down on hair loss.

Any idea what's the concentration selling at local pharmacy?

If I got frontal baldness or receding hairline, I can't use rogaine. It's use to regrow hair on the top of the scalp (vertex only). :s11:

Anakin1982:

Rogaine foam is fine for most people who can't use the solution version due to it does not contain PPG.



Asymtope:

i got it from Ebay. sorry, i don't have the link anymore. you can do a search on Ebay and choose the one that have the best price and seller's review. but do make sure you choice shipping that include insurance. it might cost more but you can be sure that your money is safe. i choose one without for my 2nd last order and lost the package.

you can't get the foam version in singapore yet. only the gel and solution version.


alex_master276:

all right. give me awhile to think about your offer in the PM. will get back to you.



danny:

minoxidil can grow hair on your whole head. just it is better on the crown somehow due to unknow reason. Rogaine can't claim it will grow hair in the front only because during the trial it is being done on the vertex therefore they can't make the claim. but if you see their before and after photo, you can clearly see frontal regrow.
