Evening all,
I'm 33 years old and have been receeding slowly for about 6 years. No where is slick bald but I have a bald spot on my vertex under light, I am a diffuse thinner I think. I've done plenty of reading and I have so far done:
Propecia (brand stuff) 0.5mg for 6 weeks, upped to 1mg for the last 3 weeks. No side effects, not much change really. Possibly a nicer feeling scalp, but that could be the Nizarol I use every other day.
I'm going to wait about 18 months before deciding if to add anything else or whether to just save all the hassle and shave my head.
Starting finasteride at the same time as minoxidil sounds like a stupid idea because you will never be able to tell which is working. Still many seem to opt for the big 3 all at the same time is there some disadvantage to my approach?
Cheers.
Finner
