I'm 30. I've been on propecia for 4+ years. I had a consult last year and I'm around a NW 2.5-3. My recession and hairloss is, or was, confined to front half of scalp. 1 year ago I started drinking soy semi-regularly and using zinc pyrithion shampoo daily. I heard both *might* help. In any case, I've noticed lately my forelock appears to be narrowing and thinning more. What are my options if propecia is losing effectiveness? could soy or zinc pyrthione be playing a role?
