finasteride. you must be on it for atleast a year... to notice new hair growth

be prepared for major hair shedding the first year but worth it..

1.25 mg a day... make sure to ask for cialis or viagra

I don't think poor lifestyle alone will cause thinning hair/hair loss. I see drug addicts near my work with full heads of hair.

yeah but I'm pretty sure those drug addicts aren't over-worked, over-stressed and underslept.

Stress conquers all!

lol funny how we use drug addicts and or homeless people all the time as comparisons.

For anyone Chinese you would have heard your mom say a million times to wear clothing so you won't "lan chun" and catch a cold? I'm like then are you saying homeless people who sleep on the street are sick with the cold like 10 months of the year?

Gonna bump up this old thread.

Early 30's and a few years ago my temples started to go back and within the last year I've noticed that the top of my head is starting to get really thin and that a future cul-de-sac is most likely coming my way. The sides of my head are extremely thick but the top is a bit depressing haha.

Reading about finasteride it says around 65% see new hair growth.
Anyone able to confirm or have before/after pictures? I've a rather large scar on my head and with my hair thinning out it has me a bit self conscious about it. I know hair won't grow on it but I can at least try to hide it.


What's the first step? Visit my Dr. or just google a dermatologist in my and make an apt. to get a possible prescription?


Thanks!

Damn, I'm in this club now (same, 32, never thought it'd happen to me. I had long ass hair last year). Thinning. I might just go with a buzz cut if this biotin doesn't help.

If it is stress. I'm meditating more, enjoying the moment and taking biotin/multi every day. I'll report back, but not holding my breath.

I went on finasteride and in about 3 months I lost a lot of sexual desire. I stopped taking it because I'd rather be bald and fuck than have lots of hair and fuck the same person anyway

In those 3 months were there any noticeable changes?
I keep reading that if you're starting rogaine it'll make you shed quite a bit until it gets better. Same case with finasteride?

In terms of hair gainz, or loss no. Just the sex thing (coming was hard, it feels like you're not really attached to your dick if that makes any sense) though it did seem to improve my skin a bit.

I looked into minoxodil as well, but you have to take that shit as long as you want it to work, and you have to do it twice a day. Such a pain in the ass, I will just have to live with thinning hair until the time comes to chop it all off.

I haven't shaved since the outbreak, so maybe I'll be able to grow a beard... Never tried before so we'll see. If so, I think that would help a lot once I do decide to chop off whatever is left of my hair

I've always had a baby face so this aging thing kinda sucks lol

I'm actually semi-bald (buzzcut), out of choice. I personally like it because I can wake up and not have to think about my hair. Also feels less gross if you sweat a lot.

I personally think it looks more clean-cut and professional than to have bed-hair in the morning that makes you look like shit.
