i went to buy another box...and fortunately this one had the appropriate stuff :(

Stop putting it on your palms!

Oh, sorry, I didn't realize you just got the Minoxidil...

Propecia and Minoxidil is only appropriate if you still have hair... I'd say the best way to go is hair restoration. Its really your own hair, just moved to the top of your head.

rogaine + propecia is the way to go

Appearantly propecia does NOT REGROW hair..it just prevents fiurther hairloss

That with rogain, which grows hair but doesn't keep it on its own, i'm told, yeilds satisfactory results.

It does. Also it mostly helps you keep the hair you have. It doesn't restore hair but for like only 15% of the people who use it. Just mostly helps keeping it. I got tired of spending so much money and time on it, I gave up and started shaving my head. Best thing ive done too.

If taken daily I believe Propecia starts to regrow hair after about 90 days.

I think I'll start shaving if it recedes any farther.

Can't say I've ever been that attached to my hair, if it wants out that's fine by me.

my company just bought the maker of Rogaine a few months ago, and as with any of our products, i can buy them at a deep discount (unless if it's prescription, then i get it free). thankfully, i don't need Rogaine nor will i ever need it (i'm Asian, none of my family members had receding hairlines). having said that, Rogaine is probably the best treatment out there that is OTC. Rogaine also comes in shampoo and conditioner, and it will help your hair look fuller.

For crying out loud buzz your head and use sunscreen on your shiney areas. It sucks to lose your hair but its not like your nose fell off or something.
