[JayC2]

....what Norwood are you? how long have you been on treatment......?

 

[JayC2]

..cheers for the reply.....what were you when you started treatments

 

[ohmanohno]

NW2 before starting treatment.

Currently 2.5-3 after minoxidil shed

Started finasteride approx 8 months ago and Rogaine foam late october.

Norwood 2.5 at start, still Norwood 2.5, but I have gained some density and can style it well, possibly back to looking like a Norwood 2 with good density.

Started out a NW3-vertex or NW4. After 3 months of minoxidil and finasteride, my crown is definitely a little thicker. The pattern is still pretty much the same, but there's enough there now than I can pull off a full crown with a little concealer and the right styling - couldn't do that when I started. Had a lot of shedding at my temples which is only just starting to come back, but I'm not too worried about it. No new growth in front yet.

i use propecia since 14 months and my hair has become a little better than before. i'm a nw2.5. I use minoxidil on the hairline and my hair is definitely thicker so maybe i gonna use it on my whole head. I have a low libido on propecia so i'm on 0.25 mg right now. hopefully it gets better, but i'm now looking for a good topical anti androgen.

regards

Over 13 years on Proscar 1/4 and still a solid NW2.

I'm about a Norwood 2.5/3 and began thinning only two years ago. I have been on finasteride and nizoral for about ten months, and minoxidil for about 3, with no real improvements or signs of slowing down, unfortunately.

I was a 2.5 before treatments, heading towards a 3 or possibly worse fast. Am still about a 3 now. Still shed frequently, so sometimes it looks better, sometimes it looks worse. Hope to get back to a NW2 eventually.

Been using Minoxidil for 3.5 months, no changes. (I take a photo of my scalp each few weeks)

 

[Rumbo4]

I've been using rogaine for about a year now, stopped the recession. Hopefully a cure soon. I am NW1
