Hi,
I am 24. My hairline has only receded 1/2 inch but I'm diffusing to nw7 . Dermatologist prescribed me finasteride so I decided to do some blood tests.
My total T (tested twice month apart) ~8.5 nmol/L.
DHT (this one was doen with LC-MS): 18 ng/dL
Free Testosterone 250 pmol/L
SHBG: 11 nmol/L.
Can't see an endo for atleast a month. These levels are all at the bottom of the reference range. I don't have any low T sides so this was very surprising to me to say the least (high libido, lots of body and facial hair etc).
So what should I do? I don't want to lose my hair but I'm not comfortable risking finasteride with these results . I tried shaving my head off and I look pretty bad unfortunately, didn't realize how much difference my hair made to balance my head shape.
