I've been reading and going over these boards for quite some time and have finally decided to become a part of your community. I guess this is the part where I give you my story.
My Story:
Ever since I was in 7th grade I've grown up having thin hair. Every year when I had a physical my doctor would always mention that my hair was thin but never gave me a solution (of course i was too young to take anything). Going through high school I always wore my hair long and my mom would color it for me and I was able to get away with it without too many people noticing my hair.
It wasn't until I was 20 when I noticed my crown starting to thin more and my hairstyle eventually turned into a a bit of a comb over that would get the occasional "what's with your hairstyle?" comment from friends. I started to wear baseball caps more and rarely did my hair to avoid having to remind myself that I was losing my hair. On July of 08 I started going to Regenix in Los Angeles where it cost me a ridiculous amount of money just to buy shampoos and these topical treatments. In case you guys have any question about Regenix I will gladly answer them btw. Anywho, Regenix did slow down my shedding and made my scalp look and feel healthy. Not knowing what kind of progress Regenix was bringing me I decided to get a hair cut in January 09.
I was shocked to see that my hairline had receded and I was developing a NWI-NWII. Since then I've continued to shed even more and have been wearing baseball caps to college for the past 8 freaking weeks. Being fed up with having to avoid hanging out with girls and avoiding social activities I decided to shave my head and give up Regenix (i feel very liberated and less stressed after shaving my head). I just started to use 5% rogaine foam on my hair line, crown and vertex portion of my scalp. I also massage my scalp every day and am currently using 1% nizoral. I plan on getting 2% nizoral from amazon soon. I have tried to get a prescription for proscar but my doctor wouldn't give it to me because he said it isn't the way to treat hairloss.
Anywho, I hope to get to know you all and support you in your feat against hairloss.
But here's my situation now
(i will post up better pictures in the future)
