Hi guys, what’s the deal with starting out with fin after fue. Is there a time frame to wait before starting ? Have done extensive research over the last 12 months but not sure on this one. Cheers Dan.

Hi Dan, you can start anytime. Lots of people start before their hair transplant but a day after is fine. It may cause you to shed more than usual, this is usually a sign it`s beginning to work.

Thanks for the advice, having read through a lot of your posts I see you use it, do you use branded propecia or finestride yourself BM ?

I started off on Proscar in 2005, then around 2008 I switched to 5 mg Finasteride that I cut into fifths. I cut one pill as I use it. It has without a doubt improved my hair and stopped or really slowed down my hair loss to a trickle.
The only side is slight man boobs. By slight it`s a little excess fat that will not turn to muscle, no bra required.

That’s good then mate, have you seen the hair loss show on YouTube. Couple of guys in Melbourne talking about dosing. They feel that 3 x 1mg a week is ample. I may start on that and see how I go. Upping to 1mg daily if required.

Where a ours do you buy yours ? Online if so could you let me know where from thank you.

I get mine from various places.
the best place is your own GP
If he will prescribe it.
Dr Fox online pharmacy is a good place.
If you go to Spain, you can buy it over the counter in any pharmacy.
Yes I’ve seen the hair loss show. I’ve met Dr Russel Knudsen many times at various hair conferences.
