This is incredible. If I respond as well as you did I'll be able to recover my thinning at my hairline. When I get my blood work I'll post pictures and starttimelapse top down view:
dandruff was from how dry my scalp became with keto shampoo being used too regularly. most recent photo is from my post on thursday.
What did you use?This is incredible. If I respond as well as you did I'll be able to recover my thinning at my hairline. When I get my blood work I'll post pictures and start
I have not started treatment yet. I'm getting blood work from an endocrinologist first and consultation regarding boosting my testosterone and lowering dht. I'm going to ask for test, dht, estrogen/estradiol, and free test. I think that's all I need. My appointment isn't for a couple weeks though because of covid. Once I get blood work results I'll either start .25mg oral or if I can find it the low dose liposomal topical.What did you use?
minoxidil+needling works wonders man, especially if youre a diffuse thinner like meThis is incredible. If I respond as well as you did I'll be able to recover my thinning at my hairline. When I get my blood work I'll post pictures and start
its result is incredible.finally got enough on top for a decent fade! -- taking a month off finasteride to see how sides resolve.
I think you shouldn't take a break from finasteride. Just lower the dose or take it eod. You had amazing gains here, don't blow it and lose ground.finally got enough on top for a decent fade! -- taking a month off finasteride to see how sides resolve.
what dose of finasteride are you taking? 1mg daily?finally got enough on top for a decent fade! -- taking a month off finasteride to see how sides resolve.
I knew this would happen. You had so many miniaturized hairs to start with. All you needed was a derma pen and minoxidil. Congrats man, I hope the finasteride doesn’t cause you problems, it’s a messed up drug. Consider zix, min and derma pen if you have sides. Good luck for the future.finally got enough on top for a decent fade! -- taking a month off finasteride to see how sides resolve.
my gains are 99.999% minoxidil/needling atm i believe, though i know im not stopping further miniaturisationI think you shouldn't take a break from finasteride. Just lower the dose or take it eod. You had amazing gains here, don't blow it and lose ground.
What needle length are you doing? My hair looks similar to yours at the beginning. Tried finasteride when i was 21 and got erection problems almost immediately so stopped. Could be placebo but i dont wanna risk it so im gonna try needling/minoxidil. Although im 32 so idk if i can salvage it.my gains are 99.999% minoxidil/needling atm i believe, though i know im not stopping further miniaturisation

I'm diffused too but unfortunately I'm not gonna start minoxidil, because hair gained by minoxidil 100% depends on minoxidil for the rest of time, and I know I'm not gonna be able to be persistent enough to use minoxidil daily for the rest of my life + I've got cats in my house and minoxidil is very poisonous to cats.my gains are 99.999% minoxidil/needling atm i believe, though i know im not stopping further miniaturisation
Maybe try oral? Honestly it’s not that hard to get it into a routine mateI'm diffused too but unfortunately I'm not gonna start minoxidil, because hair gained by minoxidil 100% depends on minoxidil for the rest of time, and I know I'm not gonna be able to be persistent enough to use minoxidil daily for the rest of my life + I've got cats in my house and minoxidil is very poisonous to cats.
I'll do needling tho, although idk how much is it gonna help without minoxidil
Honestly you don't look bad in that picture. I think with more facial hair you'd look even better.This was my hair just a few months ago, and will one day be my hair again.
The problem with all of those is not enough research to prove efficacy and safety.Other options to consider for antiandrogenic treatment: topical dutasteride (it goes less systemic than topical finasteride due to a larger molecular weight), RU58841, saw palmetto, fluridil, ketoconazole cream
