I. Introduction and Regimen

Hi,
I'm Aplunk1, and I've been a member of these boards for over a year. I've visited these boards long before I became a member. (For all the guests reading this, I strongly urge you to register and join the forums.) Since joining these boards, I have documented my year-long progress with Avodart & Rogaine as a treatment for my hairloss. I am a Norwood 2 on the Norwood-Hamilton Scale, and most of my problems now are just
in the hairline region.

My regimen, fundamentally, consists of:

Avodart
1 capsule daily.I take it with coffee or green tea on an empty stomache.

Rogaine (foam & liquid)
I apply it over the front, temples, mid-scalp, and crown, twice daily. Rogaine has proved to be perhaps the most crucial component of my hairloss regimen. The Rogaine liquid, which is now being pushed out of my regimen, causes lots of dandruff. It's being phased out now, and the foam is now being used.

Copper Peptides
2 times daily. Although I've used many brands of copper peptides, I only recommend Tricomin or American Crew Revitalize. I
personally prefer the American Crew Revitalize for its smell and added anti-hairloss components. (As well as the price!)

3x Nizoral or Head & Shoulders During the Week
Keeps the liquid Rogaine itching down, and helps to regrow hair. These shampoos really compliment a hairloss sufferer's regimen.

3-6 Grams of MSM
Keeps hairs in the growing phase longer, grows hairs longer and darker. Excellent for achieving faster results.

The regimen used during the first 6 months of treatment, which yielded the BEST results, but was very time consuming:

1x Avodart
2x Rogaine
2x Topical Spiro Lotion (5%)
1x Topical Spiro Liquid (2%)
3x weekly Nizoral and Nioxin Shampoo (#2)
5-8 Grams of MSM
1-2 L-Lysine Tablets (500mg I believe?)
2-3 grams of L-Arginine
2x Tricomin Follicle Therapy Spray
