got haircut - got some serious thickening *and* recession

[Diddy]

sheeeeaaattt. Well today i definately confirmed what i've been thinking all along. I cut my hair to the same length as in my baseline photos (maybe slightly longer)and right when i got home, i was almost shocked. Secondly i thought - god damn my hair is thick. It has definately thickened up considerably, very dark, and not see through at all. However firstly i noticed - sh*t, where'd the corners of my hair go!!! My right temple has taken a brutal hit, to the point that i kinda wanna wear a hat till my hair grows out a bit. like there's some serious recession happening! Also my left temple has also receded/thinned, but where it was once thick and full, are tons of thin whispy crappy hairs. Now i can't tell it's like this because new ones are coming, or if the hair there is going.

I'm almost kinda now giving some thought to peoples comments how finasteride helps the top/back at the expense of the hairline (OF course you could argue that fins done nothing for my hairline, and this is just natural progression) Either way, looks like i gotta ride this sucker out another 6 months to give a full evaluation.

BTW - regimine - 6 months proscar, 1 year or so nizoral, plus crap load of internals.

spironolactone on the hairline will help

propecia is not a regrowth agent, it simply reduces alpha 5. this is a quote directly from the merck website, "There is not sufficient evidence that PROPECIA works in the treatment of receding hairline in the temporal area on both sides of the head."
