That dude is a lost cause, for 5 years he's been acting like he is suffering from terminal illness over shedding that is most likely caused by stress and extremely minor and insignificant (if any) thinning.

He has never made a post where he tries to help someone else or at least not only talked about himself. In fact he remakes the same post over and over again, isn't all the way there in terms of interacting with other members, and strictly uses this forum to receive compliments for his looks.
Mate, unreal !! I would give my left arm to have that much hair . He's been posting for 5 years and still has that much hair lol what a waste of time .

Don't get me wrong, there are people much worse off than me on here but posting a pic looking hairer than an Arab pornstar is just ridiculous !!

I get it that it’s mild especially cosmetically. The way it feels is much different and there is significant thinning. The baseline was unreal. I am staying on one form of Finasteride and oral minoxidil and have been for years. I’ve tweaked with some topical stand RU along the way but since 2018 until May this year it was always Oral Minoxidil with some for of Finasteride. Fucked up dropping the oral minoxidil and maybe the Strut topical is bad compared to Chemistry RX.

I debate if it’s Test driving the issues.
You must be in love with yourself,or you have personality issues.

That is why they call it a mid life crisis!! But I admire you for what you did and what you accomplished. Hopefully you won't hit a mid life crisis when you hit 40. Trust me, he is enjoying his life too. These posts are just a side hobby for him.

It’s all over the top, venting in this forum but f*** I’m losing crazy amounts of hair ever day for 4 years. It is a chronic Telogen Effluvium and it’s making me diffuse the f*** out way fast than I need to. I just finished my 11th marathon, and still feel like sh*t because on my hair.

ha about a year before my hair started falling out. but I don’t train so it’s not over working etc. I think there’s also some traction Alopecia, manbun hit about same time the hair was falling out.

if you are so sure it's chronic tellogen effluvium (which it probably is), why don't you cease your treatment once and for all?

Dude that explains it, everyone knows that if you run 11 marathons that is the trigger for turning Norwood 7!!

I'm sorry but you have no one to blame but yourself and your lack of research into this.

Because the Telogen Effluvium has really ramped up what would have been slow AA thinning.
What? You probably had minor tellogen effluvium in the first place, therefore there were no reasons to start such aggressive regimen at the time. Even you recognize that the man bun played a role. When I had long hair, whenever I would tie a bun, I would get more loss.

You've already tried everything so far, except one thing: ceasing all your treatments. But you do you.

LOL, it's time to call in the big guns. I think you need to consult with Kevin Mann and Rob English. @WhiteWolfKevin what do you think about this guy's case. And by the way Kevin, I agree with your assessment of Rob. I was saying exactly some of the same things you said about his hair situation to someone before you even posted your latest video response to him. He would definitely have way more hair loss if he truly started male pattern baldness at 17. And I have personally met some doctors who absolutely do not know what they are doing in some cases.

If there’s definite male pattern baldness underlying, wouldn’t I be setting myself up for more permanent loss if the Telogen Effluvium gets resolved. The mystery to my is the thinning in the center occipital areas. It’s equally as thin in the safe zone as crown. Could be traction Alopecia? I’m willing to go even shorter with the hair. I cut it way back already. There is no question miniaturization on top of the Telogen Effluvium.
