That's fine. I know that some people would rather be a full head OR shaved and with no in between. If you try dutasteride and it works, be sure to report back to us with your results.
8 Months On Minoxidil 5% Liquid Nw2.5 To Nw1. Great Results.

@stachu You fought well my friend! I would always check in with your thread to see how your getting on since you started treatment round the same time as me. Its a shame to see you lost the battle 
If you jump on Dutasteride keep us updated - remember when you did your bloodtests whilst you were on finasteride you were still within the normal range for DHT. Maybe you have naturally high levels of DHT an finasteride wasnt enough.
None the less goodluck with whatever you decide.

Even if it's diffuse, I think you can pull off a closed shaved look, rather than going full clean.
And you can still go with minoxidil and a topical anti-androgen. But I agree, you fought well. I'm in the same situation like you, but I don't have the balls to shave my diffuse sh*t all off

Ehh, it look worse than you think. Ask your female friends and they will tell you that diffuse hair looks more sh*t than being bald. I cant believe i will say it but... Shave it Bro!
I gained a lot of confidence by doing this, but hey! Its not my last word to halting baldness. Ill try last time but for now, i am enjoying being bald. ^^ Hope you guys all good, ofcourse enjoying hair would be priceless thing but lets be real, if we cant do this what else has left, i am not going to be depressed by f*****g hair loss. Life is too beautiful and brutal in the same time but Lol, i accepted it and enjoying my life for 100% I am now on Pafos, Cyprus Greece (holidays) and hey, one chick yesterday came to me and wanted to meet me at bar lol (probably she was seeking for dick) but i have lovely girlfriend in Poland waiting for me so i Declined her asap. Even being ugly bald still girls found me attractive and its funny xD

Yea, I understand. The thing is I had more success with my diffuse rat nest, than with a clean shaven look. Idk, maybe I can't it pull off, maybe I'm not as confident, who knows ? I'm happy for you if you can accept this and move on, but, if I learned something from this forum is that the majority of us are psychotic and we can't let it go. I mean, that's the reason why we are all here, we can't live with this sh*t so we desperately search for a solution. But I totally agree with you, we need to live our life to it's fullest with or without hair.

You should delete your thread as it's not a success story. Post it somewhere else. Sorry it didnt worked for u.I myself know I have to shave it someday. But I'm going to try big 3 before that . at least till my 30's.

No, he should absolutely not delete this. Maybe move it, maybe not. But it's a good testimony that people need to know and be aware of!

PHAHAH!
Your life is not a success story, i slow down things down about 4 years (A very beautiful 4 years in my life) and i even wanted to do this once but this thread helped thousand of people, also helped hundred people asking me very often here or on social media like FB or Instagram about regimen, life style and motivation, i was inspiration and still probably i am for atleast half of them which is great thing. Most of them are young boys in 17-25 range. A lot of people arent honest and direct here, they disappear if they are failing with saving hair or they disappear cause they are doing well on regimen and they dont give a f*** about others since enjoying hair and confidence on the finest level (a lot of them going back often to looking for advice again with other nicknames). I am direct person, and i care about people who are on the same boat like me... Well actually i care about every person who need help but this topic is for another thread. Good Luck to you.

Wow, my life isn't a success story?
I think you took this too hard. All I was suggesting that it's not a success story so it doesn't belong in a success thread. Maybe you should post this in different thread.You continued to lose hair and you're bald now . Which may result to lot of people think that these drugs doesn't work. As you have mentioned in your failure post that "destiny is destiny. And if you started balding at young age these drugs probably won't work long term" but that's not true. Hair isn't everything . But yours is not a "success story" you've gone bald. And I'm sure you'll definitely feel better and more productive after being used to that look. So good luck to you

in fact i do, just like you i have had amazing regrowth on propecia and rogaine, then say it upregulation or Reflex hyperandrogenicity , without changing anything, i have lost all the gains simultaneously developing gyno(got it removed yes this is the way) ,and other estrogenic side effects, now my current findings are that i believe at least in my case finasteride should be used with trt amount of Test, this is what i am doing now , and i feel like my hair is relatively strong and thick

We have to accept reality. Don't be too depressed people. There are still many others who have maintained their success for long periods of time.
Do you ever think that you aborted finasteride too soon? You had noticeable diffuse thinning when starting in 2016. Diffuse thinning everywhere by the looks of your pics. If a finasteride shed is real then it would only make sense that you would lose so much hair, as apposed to somebody receding or only loosing the crown. Way more hairs affected by DHT.
Our cases are very similar. We both had improvement in the first 5 months on finasteride but then experience a Telogen Effluvium. We both reduced our dose during this phase. We both diagnosed ourselves with RH and quit. Possibly before the regrowth.
Did you try finasteride a second time?

Hi worm, yes. I used 1.5mm once a week, it definitely helped regrow.
