| My Hair Loss Story. |
I first started to notice my hairloss at 22. At that point I was probably at 40-50% density since it was not that noticeable (only in certain light.) Rogain was available as a prescription 2.5%, being as vain as I was I jumped on it. It did a remarkable job of keeping my hair in until about 2 years later I decided I "didn't need it" since I "wasn't really losing my hair" so I stopped using it since my finances were very tight and I couldn't really afford it anyway. A little over a month later my hair began to fall out at a tremendous rate and I ran out and started using rogain again. But it was a little too late. It didn't grow back to the way it was but it did freeze the loss again. I have been on it ever since and started using Propecia as soon as it was available as a prescription. My hair seems to have not changed at all since that point almost 14 years ago. Although I imagine there has been a very slight amount of loss just not visible to me.
