Hi there,

I figured that since I spend a lot of time in here anyway I might just spend it in this (uplifting) part of the forum. I will keep it updated for as long as I come around (that might not be for long because I am improving at an incredible rate). I will post close-ups of my hairline ( I try to make these pictures as similar as possible in terms of angle, lightning, hair length etc.). The first set of pictures is not new, in fact I posted them a month ago but I wanted to keep everything in one place. From time to time I will just post a portrait picture to give some of the new users an idea how their hair might look in "real life".

22nd of December 2015:

I started my treatment on the 22nd of December. 1mg finasteride every day and minoxidil (5% liquid rogaine) twice a day.

15th of March 2016:
Less than 3 months into treatment with drastic improvements. I get a little sloppy with my minoxidil use, I'd say I applied it around once a day for the last week or so.

25th of April 2016:
Today I snapped a picture of mine when I came home and recognized how much I gained. The first picture is from November 2015, the second picture is from today. I feel like dropping minoxidil, it is expensive, quite a mess to deal with and really inconvenient compared to finasteride.
Yes, I know that the angle and lighting is different, and hair length/styling might not be exactly the same, too but I feel like it gives a general idea of my progress.

looks good.
But it would be better if you can do hairline pictures from a littl bit bigger distance than the ones you made.
And i wouldn't suggest you to drop minoxidil.Stick to it once a day(it isnt expensive at all). Otherwise you may lose a huge number of your newly grown hair

I would have had a huge smile in that last pic. Impressive results, I still think you should have taken the natural route.

Great results! Any sides? In one pic you have eye bags but they are gone in the 2nd one!

Had some slight discomfort when touching my nipples 3 months ago which totally subsided. No sides other than that. I always had eye bags, it's just a function of lighting if you see them.
