I use propecia to prevent further hair thinning and loss but would it help to use rogaine (minoxidil) as well? also what strength would i need and what form?

Combo therapy helps: Yes, you can use the rogaine (topical minoxidil) together with the propecia (finasteride). You can start with the 5% formulation.
