    if you read the sides of accutane, you find a small percentage has hair thinning....for acne realated to hormones you might want to try dutasteride, but if you have very oily skin then stay on accutane

    I could tell you, but then I'd have to kill you. j/k Try doing a search on this site or google. You should get plenty of information.

    That stuff is just a waste of money. Your hair will go back to the way it was when yuo discontinue use of the propecia or rogaine! and it willtake longer to work than your cycle on acutane.

    If you have extremely bad acne then maybe use acutane but alot of times you can fix the4 imbalance in your body by diet and not being so stressed out(if you are)

    Acne or really oily skin is caused by an imballance in the body. Try to fix that imballance?

    I took accutane a few years back with no problem with hair thinning. But, I sure did help with my acne. I got blood tested once a month just to make sure all was in order, are you doing that?

    Juice is more likely the culprit. What type of cycle are you doing/have you done?
