Hi All
I'm a new member, but have been lurking around the site for the last week or so. I am now calling out for the advice of my fellow DHT-cursed peers...
I am a 26 year old Australian bloke and have been losing my hair (as far as i'm aware) since i was about 23/4. When i was 24, my girlfriend at the time alerted me to the problem. See - i'm one of those guys with a perfect hairline and thick black hair all over... except, now, for the vertex/crown of my head. The hair there is really quite thin...
As soon as i found out i had the usual panic and went to a well known hairloss clinic down under called "Ashley & Martin" and got started on a program of Minoxidil 7% (their own solution with added Retinoic Acids) and Finasteride (Proscar). I've never had any scalp problems or real reactions to minoxidil or finasteride...
I was optimisitic at first and was looking forward to a full, thick head of hair again, since i caught the problem relatively early. However, now, 1.5 years down the track, I can't say that i have seen any real results - and at the moment i feel like i'm shedding more than ever!!! Could this be a sign of the products working?! I mean 1.5 years is a pretty long lag time!
I have just purchase the American Crew Revitalize system to add to my treatments and am hoping the Cu peptides will stop the shedding and perhaps boost things a little. Can anyone give me any advice and/or insights?
Thanks a lot in advance - this site does make me feel a lot better. I was/am starting to feel pretty down about the whole thing, but at least i'm not the only one!!
Cheers
