Hi guys, haven't posted in awhile but I just updated my propecia blog and was reading a few posts and saw this guy who was unhappy with the results at 7 months, but honestly being a good sport about it, not trash talking the doctor. I"m just wondering is 7months seriously way early too make a decision? Could a lot honestly change in the next 5months? Or could it be just a mediocre transplant/ bad canidate for this kind of stuff? Honest answers please I dont need a selling point for a Transplant just curious for when the time comes for me.. in 2012.

Check out this guy, who was "unhappy" that he'd had no growth between the four and eight month time...... A picture's worth a 1,000 words.

A lot of it depends case by case; how many grafts to the given balding area. Nonetheless, 7 months is early regardless.

 

As a rule, if you have a sick result by 7 months it most likely means your end result will rock; if you don't have a sick result by 7 months it doesn't mean you won't. It is always best to be a strong, swift grower, but the it's the end game that matters most irregardless.

 

No doubt, really minimal growth by 7 months is NOT a good thing and it SHOULD raise some concerns IMO, but no major/final judgements should be made.

 

10 months+ is a diff ballgame...
