No finasteride yet.. We'll see how this goes for me first.. As ID Walker posted, I'm quite the procrastinator Haha.

Labellavita - by all means... Share it.. Maybe it can help someone else who's doesn't know what to do about their hair loss.. :D

Who would you recommend talking to about setting up an appointment to get on finasteride? any recommendations on brands? I mean I'm down to try.. Not so keen on the side effects but if they're bad I can just stop taking it.

This will probably be my last post for a while, til it starts to fill in more.

If you're debating on starting minoxidil treatment, don't think it's too late.. It's worth a shot what else do you have to lose... Besides hair lol.

I'm super grateful for all the kind words and encouragement from everyone here.. I still look a little thinning but hey, it's better than what it was before!

So hopefully I'll be back with better progress..

Still no finasteride/dutasteride/etc

I'm very impressed with your regrowth, well done. be honest, do you think the other stuff in your regimen helped you at all, other than minoxidil?

I do believe that the biotin, saw palmetto, and nizoral are working... Something has to be.. I'm not ballsy enough to start quitting them one at a time to find out though.. Haha.

I've had light blonde hair for pretty much my whole life.. Since I've started this regimen the hair on my head and arms are getting thicker and darker.. I think that is from the biotin..

As for the saw palmetto, I just read on multiple sites stating it was a dht blocker. So I tried that too.. I take 2 5000mcg biotin twice daily and 1 450mg saw palmetto twice daily.

Nizoral Monday Wednesday and Friday..

So.. 4 months into treatment I'm starting to shed now. The slightest tug will pull hair out, it's all smaller and regrown hair.. Hopefully the start of something terminal!

So.. About six months into treatment not a lot of improvement.. But even after shedding for a couple weeks not much loss.

Congratz! I would consider adding finasteride as a safety and precautionary measure to hold your grounds. Come along way

Has anyone else seen a recovery like this? This is crazy. He should donate his scalp to hairloss research.

Also what are friends and family members reaction?

Alright, so a mini update so to speak. I stopped taking Biotin and Saw Palmetto and got a little lazy on the Minoxidil applications (Still tried to apply at least once a day) due to work etc over the past year. I've seen quite a bit of regression (expected since I wasn't following the regimen) I will upload some more pictures soon. I finally caved in and saw a doctor to get a Propecia prescription. (It wasn't as scary as I thought it would be!)

So the new regimen includes;

1 mg Propecia in the morning. (Started July 18th 2017. No side effects as of yet.)
1 ml of 5% Minoxidil in the morning and night.
1 5000 MCG Biotin two-three times daily.
Nizoral shampoo Monday, Wednesday, Friday.

Again, I will update with some more pictures soon.

Regards,
