Hello there! :woot:
First of all I am happy that I discovered this community, it really helps me (and others of course) to realize that we are the majority (those with hair loss issues).
Ok, here is my story: I am close to 30 (in July will be) and in 2008 I observed that my hair is getting thinner and whenever I was playing with my hair, there were a few of them in my hands. (sorry for my bad English, not native).
I tried at first some supplements, then an energizer shampoo... you know all the story.
In 2009 the problem was still there and my mother tried to "prepare" me: "Don't worry, your father at 35 was already bald!".
Ok, then I start to use minoxidil 5%, it's been like 8 months since then. The hair stopped falling. I think.
I also saw "some improvement" I really don't know. At the moment I cut down my hair because it's much more easier to apply the minoxidil and the other stuff, too.
From today (after discussing with a physician and reading some of your posts) I decided that it's time to start with Finasteride, too.
Was easier to get Proscar then Propecia, so I got Proscar and cut it down to 5 pieces... and because it's my first day on finasteride, I cut down the fifth piece in two so to try with a bit less then 0.1mg to check out in the first week if there are any side effects on me. Ok, I know that the "cutting down" is approximate but this is the best I can do.
Also bought Nizoral to use it twice/week.
I am curious about the effects.
Ok, I took these decisions because i don't wanna be bald 100% and then to think to do something... I really do care about my hair.
This is a photo of me two weeks ago (before cutting my hair)
