Title: Propecia, Rogaine, and FTMs
Post by: Ender on August 14, 2007, 10:05:30 AM
Does anyone know if Propecia or Rogaine are effective for hair loss in FTMs?  Or can they be harmful when taken in conjunction with T therapy?  Just wondering if these are a possiblity, or if I should just get used to the idea of hair loss (possibly as soon as I start T--my maternal uncle began going bald at 18).

Thanks

I think they're as effective as they are for bio guys (ie: works for some, doesn't for others). Probably a good idea to get used to the idea of hair loss. I think they're ok to use with T. I use rogaine on my face to try and assist my pathetic beard growth.
