Howdy gentlemen. I'm 22 and started noticing my hairloss around my mid to late teens. I talked to my doctor about finasteride and how it was the generic name for propecia and how I would like a prescription for my alopecia and see what happens.
First off my insurance covered probably half of it and I've got almost a year supply for like 30 dollars.
Secondly, its now been around 7 months with the tiny cut up pills and I do beleive my thinning has stopped, and regrowth has definitely started. I havent even taken them every day..more like every couple of days.
I've been getting compliments lately from family and friends who were always scared of being rude when telling me how thin it used to be (definitely around the crown). Just last night my long time good buddy was telling me "man whats your secret?" "I bet you have so much more confidence now" etc.. and it feels great to hear that from him and friends. I do notice more attention from the ladys as well (im sure the facial hair is part of that too though heheh)
Anyways, I'm sorry I don't have any before or after pics, type of baldness I have described, or what mg of finasteride I'm taking (as I'm too lazy to go down stairs to check) but I will get back to you on those things later. I just wanted to post and tell you people who are starting to thin that you better lower that DHT soon if you want some serious results and don't mind potential side effects (in which I have experienced none. period.)
you can see my red glowing scalp throw my thin crown area which just so happened to apear in a picture of an eisley show (an amazing band) I'm the one with the brown jacket behind the striped waldo looking shirt guy in the center of the picture..like nearest the camera. Picture that but almost twice as bad. So this does work.
