Yeah, Im gonna add the minoxidil I believe, AT first I thought propecia would give me the growth I needed but I dont believe this to be a reality anymore since my hair has gotten pretty bad...... In order for me to get my hair back where I could at least style it with gel, I think Im gonna need the minoxidil, I just dont know if I could deal with that shed on top of my ongoing 4 month propecia shed.......
