I honestly don't see any loss :confused: some slight thinning but I was half expecting cobwebs and a bald spot lol. You may be shedding but it looks like whatever your losing is regrowing. Maybe you are maintaining with treatments?
Yes your full head of hair excites my chemically deflated member

Here’s a comparison of left: a day ago, right: November 2016. That was after I started minoxidil in 2015 and regrew tons of hair. Since then it’s only been going down hill.

Okay fair enough I see it now. I hope we find a solution quick, this life is no life living in constant pain.

Yeah look I’m not going to lie. I’ve given myself another year to see if anything gets better and if it doesn’t I’m just gonna neck myself. I’m not prepared to live the rest of
My life feeling as desperately ugly and sad as I do now. I’m only 24. I’m single. I won’t find anyone if I go bald, I won’t have the confidence to ever be social again, I will always be insecure and depressed about it.
So I’m going to try darolutamide for a year, and if that’s a bust, then so am I, and I’m cool with that decision.

so minoxidil give you initial good result ?
Me? Yeah. Grew back my entire hairline and then some. I didn’t notice how thick it actually was at first because I’d put extensions in my hair while I was shedding initially. Beginning of 2016 I shaved my head and it grew back quite thick as you can see from the photo of my part on the right. But I wasn’t on any anti
Androgens after Jan 2016 and only just started dutas every day 6 or so weeks ago so my hair now looks like total sh*t

Please don't kill yourself in that sort of way. Woman generally lose hair alot slower than guys so you still got some mileage left in you! Why don't you get on estradiol?
I can understand the wanting to die If you go bald thing, I'm pretty good looking myself and would probably end it all too via drug abuse. I don't care about relationships I just want to look good for me.
There is always hope Georgie.
Or complete determination using 2.5mg dutasteride, 50mg bicalutamide, 8mg estradiol and 20mg oral minoxidil. You may die of a heart attack, liver failure, breast cancer or all 3 at the same time before you go bald. Now isn't that a better alternative to hanging yourself?

@Georgie, please don't be hard on yourself like that. You are extremely attractive and your hair still looks amazing. You have such minor loss that very few people would ever notice. I have suffered with body image problems all my life and I can understand what its like to feel insecure all the time and live with fear and anxiety. I don't think there is a single straight guy on here that would not give you a chance. Some might chicken out to ask you out but if you asked them out they would not say no to you. You are way too young to give up on yourself. I don't see any evidence of you possibly going bald anytime soon.

I take the highest dose contraceptive pill. It’s banned in many countries because it has given women strokes and cancer.
I have also lost 80% of my hair in three years. It’s fast progressing. I don’t like being alive as it is. The thought of living this way forever makes me sick in the pit of my stomach.

If your DHT and testosterone are very low, and your estrogen is high then maybe you aren't suffering from Androgenic Alopecia? AFAIK prepubescent children do not develop AA, if your levels are similar you shouldn't be losing your hair?
I would check with a doctor to make sure it's not due to other reasons like thyroid, etc.

I’ve had scalp biopsies done, and It’s Androgenetic Alopecia.

Hey all, I'm due to get my topical estrogen any day now and and recently found what was left of my spironolactone pills.. I got 14 left (100mg)
Basically I want to lower my testosterone levels faster so the estrogen can work better in a shorter amount of time.. Should I do 200mg for 7 days then I have none left, or do 100mg for 14 days? Or even something in between which would work out on X amount days using 150mg?
For what it's worth I'm still on oral minoxidil and will also be restarting finasteride next month and low dose oral estrogen too.
Can you show us what does your hair look like? And how old are you

Wth. You should not think like that. You're very attractive and pretty fit. You can later get a hair transplant or a wig but killing yourself because of hairloss is a big NO.

I can’t get a hair transplant because my hairloss is all over my head.

I don't think you'll go full bald anytime soon. I mean you still have full head of hair and no bald patches.
Or you can find someone before you go bald. It won't be hard for you with your current look (just kidding)
