About a year ago (now 32 years old)... I met with Dr. Cole in Los Angeles. The meeting went great. He actually told me that I was not yet ready to be a candidate for HT. I had told him that I had taken 1 tablet of Propecia in the morning for about 2 weeks and stopped because I had lost my sex drive (my girlfriend was not happy), felt bloated (I train in the gym about 6 days per week - 175lbs, 5'10", 8% bodyfat), not as energetic, skin felt sensitive, just weird. Once I stopped... I felt back to normal after a couple of days. I still continued on Costco Rogaine every night. So... Dr. Cole and I discussed an alternative plan of attack. He told me to take 1/2 a Propecia EVERY NIGHT or 1 Propecia EVERY OTHER NIGHT. I have been taking 1/2 Propecia EVERY NIGHT for almost a year now. I actually feel like I have the same if not slightly more sex drive (gf very happy), and feel great in the gym, etc. He mentioned something about the side effects being less if taking at night... and he was right. I continue costco Rogaine and Nixoral (that over-the-counter shampoo every morning)... and things seem to be getting better. I also have my hair dyed by my stylist every couple of weeks... which gives it a 25% thicker look (I have dark hair). So things seem to be stable, HOWEVER, I read a post on this forum that stated that if you CUT a Propecia in HALF (with a pill cutter), it can cause it to NOT be as effective??? (Something about the shell/casing, etc) Is this true??? Should I now go to 1 tablet of Propecia every night??? Should I continue with my 1/2 per night??? Or... 1 Table every OTHER NIGHT??? What other options can anyone recommend? When will Dr. Cole be opening up his facility in Los Angeles??? I am sure that he would do very well over here (appearance seems very important to people in L.A... LOL).
Thanks in advance... ridersinc. |
