For those of you who are interested in these kinds of things, I have decided to bite the bullet again and start using Proscar cut up into quarters.
I figure with Xandrox 15, Revivogen, and Propecia I have a pretty comprehensive and high quality regimen.
Will start taking pics again to record my progess soon.
Cheers,
Sam
Admin has added 1.25mg Proscar to regimen

Hi Sam,
Good to be back at the forum!
I'm at the opposite end in regards to the Prop/Proscar situation. I've been on Propecia for 1 year now and on Revivogen for 1 month. I'm not using the 5% minox on the crown and mid front so to test how Revivogen works in that area. I will continue the minox 2% in those areas so its scientifically no alteration.
I'll keep you guys updated. But there was a shed on the 3rd week. I'll try to ride it out.
(minox 5% is still used on hairline and temples only).
Forgot to say...if the Revi works, I'll slowly quit Propecia. My friend's dad is dying from kidney disease and this sort of long term internal usage scares me.

Melchang,
good to hear from you! I think there's far worse you can do to harm your kidneys than taking Propecia. But you're right in the sense that any internal treatment adds additional strain to the body's organs.
I think Propecia has a pretty good overall safety profile, but it still took me a long time to decide to get back on it. I guess I just don't want to go bald, and am willing to take the associated risk for even the off chance of keeping what hair I still have.
Keep us posted with your progress.
Regards,
Sam
