Post-divorce, my thinning hair crushed what little confidence I had left. Regaine solution gave me baby hairs at 3 months, and by month 9, I looked like my younger self. Now I date again—and keep my bathroom mirror clean to check progress!
After pretending my receding hairline wasn’t happening, I finally tried generic finasteride. Six months in, my barber asked if I’d had a transplant. Nope—just wish I’d started sooner. No side effects, just thicker hair. Why did I wait?
As a pharmacist, I researched every option. Finasteride + Regaine foam had the strongest clinical data. After 8 months, my crown fill-in shocked me—even my colleagues noticed. Sticking to the regimen pays off.
I’m lazy, so pills were out. But rubbing Regaine foam into my scalp while brushing my teeth? Easy. Still forgot half the time, but saw less hair in the drain by month 5.
