Hello Dr.
I am 21 years old and i have been using Rogain and Propecia for a expanded time( about a year). Unfortunately I have not had a positive outcome from these medicines. I lost hair since I was 15.

Olea Europaea (Olive) Fruit Oil, Sesamum Indicum (Sesame) Seed Oil, Arachis Hypogaea (Peanut) Oil, Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond) Oil, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) … [visit site to read more]

I was thinking of going on Propecia but found that composition: Effect of androgen deprivation on penile ultrastructure
I was wondering why Merck hasn’t mentioned that as a side effect. Is that claim true in humans?
This may occur in humans at doses of finasteride much higher than the 1mg dose level that is the therapeutic dose for hair loss. The study doesn’t say how much finasteride … [visit site to read more]

Why does it take 6 months for catch up loss to occur?
Everything happens slowly in hair as it only grows at a rate of 1/2 inch per month. Much of the hair loss or reversal of it from drugs like Propecia (starting or stopping it) occurs in the 6 month day frame to be detectable. normally, when you stop the drug and the drug was working well, the loss will occur in the first 3 months.

I am on testim. Will propecia help? can transplants outlive testim use?
Propecia may help reduce the affect of testosterone, but the use of exogenous testosterone does cause hair loss in citizens with genetic balding. The transplants, however, will not be effected by the testosterone, as hormones do not affect donor hair (which is not prone to genetic balding in men).

Dear Drs., thank you for all the info on that site. I am a 59 y/o female. During menopause, I experienced fairly a bit of generalized hair thinning which concerned me. However, it tapered off, and I’ve lived with it. However, six months ago, my drs. found a pituitary adenoma which had shut down many hormones. I am now supplementing thyroid, prednisone (5mg/day), desmopressin, and, starting 6 weeks ago, hgh (nordutropin). I am not taking any other meds. My hair is again thinning … [visit site to read more]

Your blog is incredibly insightful and useful, can’t believe its a free resource. I’ve had a strip excision, my question is that there is one area directly above the scar line, about 3 cms wide and possibly 3 cms high (where scar is probably about 20 cms long) that feels raised and different. whether I run my finger from below the scarline in that area up and by you can feel how that area becomes distinctly raised even sometime after transplant. the other areas above the scar dont have … [visit site to read more]

Hi, I just turned nineteen and have become concerned about hair loss. The corners of my hairline seem high and an abundance of small hairs have sprung up around the hairline. Are these signs of recession, new hair, or can it be either? No one on either side of my family has ever been bald apart from my great uncle on my father’s side. What are the odds of me fitting bald?
There is no … [visit site to read more]

Hi Doc. Thanks for a great website.
37 year old male, been on Propecia for three months now. Prior to Propecia, hair was falling out of vertex at a regular rate. Started Propecia and loss stopped immediately and completely within three days. One month later after continued Propecia use, hair begins falling out at same rate as before Propecia and continues falling out now.
I know that I can’t “build up a tolerance” to Propecia, so am I in a shedding phase? whether so, how faraway will … [visit site to read more]

Dear Doctor,
I am 33 yo, I took Propecia for two years with NO erection problems and good hair growth. I stopped October 2007.

I have now retrograde ejaculation but I had NO decreased libido or erection problems until November 08. I started on Propecia on mid Nov 08 and I have been having … [visit site to read more]

Hello doctor,
can a cytostatic agent applied to the face in order to relieve effects of seborrheic dermatitis cause damage to eyebrow hairs? As far as I know, it slows down cell multiplication rate of the skin so I am wondering whether it affects eyebrows and how?
Thank you
I think that question is better asked to a dermatologist. I have no experience with cytostatic agents as they are used for the treatment of seborrheic dermatitis.
