Re: SHP's Story, (5 month PIC UPDATE!!)
this was a total surprise in the front, I had thought my bald spot would be the only thing that I could hope for to fill up. Pleasantly surprised. From the front i can now see a hair line which I haven't seen in a few years.

Yup, on the minoxidil liquid. Some nights I'll put this on at about 6:00 PM and then again at 11:00 PM before bed. But most nights its just the 11:00 PM application that stays on all night and gets washed off at 8:00 AM.
I might just buy the minoxidil foam as I do think I've had a slight slow down on new growth, but don't know this to be 100% true though. FOr sure I haven't had a negative effect to going to one dose though.

I take it you're on the minoxidil liquid then? how've you found that reducing it to once per day?

Re: SHP's Story, (5 month PIC UPDATE!!)
twice a day application of min is essential for optimum results.....
i like to use the foam during the day because it doesn't make your hair look greasy for like 4 hours
i still use the liquid at night so i can use a little more of it and cover my whole top of head
i would suggest to use the foam during the day and liquid at night to save some $$$$$$
i think you are having great progress and i am very excited to see where things end up!

Re: SHP's Story, (5 month PIC UPDATE!!)
this is a great thread. shp, congrats on your results!
what's the difference between diffuse thinning and male pattern baldness?
when i googled it, diffuse alopecia is caused by non-hereditary factors, such as trauma, stress, chemicals, etc.
but when you guys mention it, you're talking about diffused that IS hereditary. id appreciate it if you can clarify this for me as i'm new on this board.
thanks!

Re: SHP's Story, (5 month PIC UPDATE!!)
My hair loss is definitely hereditary, but with the stress I had last year it was accelerated further, not sure if stress is an explicit cause but it must be. Also, my loss was all over the head when it got rapid, coupled with the typical male pattern baldness with the frontal recession. Perhaps someone more knowledgeable that reads this can answer?

Re: SHP's Story, (5 month PIC UPDATE!!)
wow thats some amazing regrowth. you must be ecstatic! has any of your co-workers or friends noticed the difference??
great idea on getting the foam and nizoral. many people discount the importance of the nizoral cause its a shampoo but i think its pretty essential. its not called The Big 3 for nothin!
Good luck with much more growth my friend.

To be honest, no one has explicitly all on their own said something. I do get stares and I guess people don't want to be rude. But when I invite the topic as a discussion than I get a lot of comments (Hey does my hair look any different?).
I am very happy. Just added Rogaine foam 5% so hopefully now that minoxidil will be on twice a day, I hope to see better results in the months ahead.

Yea, nice stuff!!
I've made changes to my regime around minoxidil. I've noticed that each day that I've put on the Rogaine Foam right after my AM shower, I've been super tired (even after a full nights rest) for most of the day. I now only put on the foam after I come home from work, and then four hours later or before bed, I put on the liquid minoxidil. I know for max benefit one ought to apply 12 hours apart. I'd rather keep my energy level to the max though. We'll see if this has any effects. My heart no longer races during the day (at least not as much as it did in the past anyway).
