Hi everyone,
Just wondering what other peoples thoughts were on using Propecia vs. Rogaine from personal experience. I have been taking Propecia for several months now. I'm not sure if I notice a difference either way but I am hoping to preserve the hair I have. I do not use Rogaine and frankly am a little against spending even more money for something in conjunction with the $67.00 I shell out monthly for the Prop. How does everyone else feel about taking one product or the other? Or the value in using both? |

Individually, propecia is much more effective than the minox; when taken together, however, there may very well be a synergistic effect, and the addition of the minox has been known to help even the hairline region.
Stick with the propecia for a year or so before you draw a conclusion on how it is working for you. Follicular Reclamation Project: Dr. Feller, 3K, 1/8/08 Propecia 7x Nizoral 2%/Toppek S&C Rogaine Foam 5% (starting post-HT) Toco-8 Nanogen Hair Expander |

Thanks for your reply. Glad to hear it, I'll continue taking the Propecia for now.
I heard Falc mention a 5mg pill that you can cut up into 4's and take. Would this be cheaper? I'm curious because I am saving for a HT and every little bit helps, right? If so, is it available in Canada and what is it called? Thanks again. |

HT55 is right on. Proscar is the 5mg pill of finasteride that can be split and is ultimately cheaper. It is available in Canada with a prescription.

Yeah, thing is I had a HT several years ago. Hair has receded a bit from the hairline which I had done. Not sure if anything can be done about that now. HT number 2 is the way to go then maybe use the combo at that time.

Yeah, you had some amazing results. I guess I'll check it out and give it a shot. If nothing else, it will make me feel better that I'm doing everything I can.
Thanks for the insight guys. This community is second to none.  |

Minox is a regrowth agent
Propecia is a DHT blocker 2 different products entirely. I am a paid showcase and "patient coordinator" for Feller Medical, PC in the UK - all opinions expressed are my own.All assesments and treatment plans are made by Dr. Feller alone.Be aware of clinics who use paid non-doctor consultants to assess your hairloss as this is absolutely illegal in the U.S., U.K., and Canada.
