Propecia after 2 months

5/26/03

Propecia after 2 months (stopped minox at start of propecia)- no noticeable change from when I started 2 months ago.

Switched from Ultra Mega to Ultra Mega w/o Iron (by accident)

7/24/03

Propecia after 4 months (sweaty) – (started minox again start of month 5)

8/10/03- ditched Ultra Mega w/o Iron vitamins and started regular Centrum

8/14/03 high level of shedding

8/23/03 (worst hair right around this time)

hair looks like shit but shedding has almost stopped the past few days…almost no hair comes out when combing after shower or in morning (maybe 5-10 hairs)

stabilized on shampoo regimen for the past week or two(day1 tgel,day2 tgel,day3 nizoral..repeat)

minox scalp itch is greatly reduced since using the new shampoos

9/21/03

6months- hair seems better. No real shedding anymore (maybe a few hairs which is pretty normal). Good regrowth right in the front of my hairline and some thickening on the vertex areas.

10/26/03

Had a good hair weekend for first time in a loooong time. Recently started taking 3-5g of arginine and 1g of ornithine every morning. Also upped my biotin dosage from 1mg to 2.3mg (because of internet study) and stopped using Tgel because it makes my scalp feel fried. Also switched from propecia to 1mg of Cipla proscar.

11/3/03

Front hairline looking a little shitty. Noticed some small ½” hairs shedding. Might be the Cipla. I went to the pharmacy for some real Propecia. Screw the Cipla shit. I don’t want another relapse after ditching a treatment that works. I was on the Cipla maybe 13 days in the past 16 days (other days took last Propecias). Fuck it, I will buy real stuff from here out.

11/14/03

Started He Shou Wu (two 610mg tabs 3x/day) and reflexology (three 5min sessions/day)

11/22/03

8months (these pics I had some hairspray in from last night and I hadn’t washed my hair since 2 days ago)

One of my woman friends commented. “What’s up with your hair…it doesn’t really look like you’re going bald now”.

11/23/03 Started He Shou Wu powder (2g 3x/day) instead of capsules

12/14/03 Noticing thinning spot in top center of crown…dammit. Also noticed lots of shedding (~20 1” hairs) after showers for the past week or so….mostly in thinning area

12/18/03 Started taking kelp capsule 1x/day

12/26/03 Started MSM 3g per day

1/20/04 Crown looks like shit after wearing beanie at practice…thinning spot in top center

1/25/04 10 months
