Positive Outlook With Current/Future Science

[Cue Bald]

plus i bet the follicle is actually one of the more complex organs in the body. like they have no idea what causes depression. they have no idea what hair is actually even for. i have never actually found a good diagram that explains the anatomy of a follicle in detail - they explain various parts like the DP but they never actually explain the anatomy of say the DP, or why it does what it does, how it does it etc. e.g. how does it convert food or energy into proteins that then become a hair.

Poor guy, you clearly have no idea what u r talking about.

"I know! I ll just delete the last paragraph from the science paper about the cure! It will make the cure 10% less efficient and get me more money! Hope nobody finds out, its not that hundreds of people will be able to notice it sooner or later!"

what an idiot.

Your an idiot to believe that big pharma companies, big money investors, investment companies want to slay the goose that lays the golden egg. You just need to look at what happened to RU to prove my point.

Seeing this thread with the date under it just says it all

Are you guys masochists ?

what do you call like a masochist except you don't like it

I have a very firm understanding now of what is happening in the scientific world with hair loss and what is possible now with current medication.

Propecia might stop working. By that time, there will be options.

TrichoCyte is going to happen. The process of cellular implantation is close, and by close, I mean 4-6 years away. That's close for an end to balding. When this goes into effect, if you want, you can essentially drop all hair loss drugs and treat the areas that bald as they occur.

wait a bit of time.

Haha oh man, this guy is for sure bald as hell today. Bald and old.

These types of delusional baldies are active to this very day. We will look back and quote them 15yrs from now like we did this now old and bald gentleman.

 

[Toby0823]

Everyone here calling others retards

Everyone here is balding, nobody knows sh*t, everyone here knows less than the retarded hairloss mice f*****g scientists,...we’re all even bigger retards,...bald retards

 

[Cue Bald]

Poor guy, you clearly have no idea what u r talking about.

are you on finasteride or are you BALD?

 

[Hate da Bt]

are you on finasteride or are you BALD?

Neither.
Your point?
May u answer my question: why you are here?

 

[razzmatazz91]

THERE WILL NEVER BE A CURE FOR BALDNESS!!!!!!

The reason is that drug companies would go under from no longer selling you certain drugs. CAlding affects so many people in this world, it's foolish from a business perspective to find a cure for balding. Just step back and think about it. Just think about it.

Yeah. Except when you do think about it, what you are saying is utter B.S.

No one should work to cure cancer because they will lose profits that they make selling chemo.
Yet the best minds are working on that and have been for quite sometime.

Mods seriously needs to start weeding out trolls and idiots.

You still don't get that that notorious fact is not even what I'm refuting, do you? I know you feel like Einstein for spouting common sense, but try a little harder and you might get it.

Besides, it's all simply laid out by the user I complimented above.

Let's just end this exchange, it's saddening.

Except for one reason a cancer cure cannot and should not in anyway be compared with something that is cosmetic. Nobody dies from baldness not even slightly comparable.

Why do you feel the need to talk down to and insult people to try and make your point

on a serious note, i ve got nothing personal against the guy, its just that I keep seeing this wannabe insightful reasoning over and over again and its so damn annoying. the guy i quoted is like the 10000th one I ve seen spouting this exact generic nonsense and it makes me sad and annoyed.

if there is anything that triggers me, its people talking out of their asses thinking they are original.

will people ever get over that pixelated, infantile "they are all after me" worldview?

 

[Cue Bald]

Neither.
Your point?
May u answer my question: why you are here?

why am i here? on this board? because i am Norwood 4
in this section? originally i was looking for the cure, 10+ years ago. (i have been lurking these boards for over 10 years now) but i got so disheartened by every single failure, nowadays i just come to this section for the comedy.

so can you answer my post about knowing very little about the follicle? you answered that I have no idea what I'm talking about yet you never answered a single part of my post (on what the DP does, why it does it, etc)

i predict in 5-10 years you either won't be on this board anymore and will have accepted a Norwood 6, or you will be just as bitter and jaded as i am now.

That's because he has nothing, no coherent argument, no useful opinion, no girlfriend, no qualifications just comes on here to make his sh*t little life seem a little better.

When I first was hit with noticing hair loss, which was August of last year, I was overwhelmed with the feeling of helplessness. That this was something which would haunt me for the rest of my life, that I would eventually lose my looks and rely entirely on personality. It was superficial but devestating.

Now, months later, I do not worry about it nearly as much. I have a very firm understanding now of what is happening in the scientific world with hair loss and what is possible now with current medication.

Propecia is proven to work for the majority of people for at least five years. For me, Propecia seems to have stopped the hair loss and is maintaining. Right now, I can style my hair and no one knows I'm losing my hair. Down the road, Propecia might stop working. By that time, there will be options.

TrichoCyte is going to happen. The process of cellular implantation is close, and by close, I mean 4-6 years away. That's close for an end to balding. When this goes into effect, if you want, you can essentially drop all hair loss drugs and treat the areas that bald as they occur.

Ultimately, I feel I will have a period of my life that I will look back at as very trying, a tough time where I doubted myself and worth. Over something that is no longer an issue because science solved that problem. Knowing that changes my entire outlook now. It's a matter of waiting a relatively short time with a problem and knowing that the rest of my life, that problem will be gone.

Best of luck to everyone in making it through the waiting. That's all we have to do now. Find what you can maintain and wait a bit of time.

Wow, I can't believe this post!

Nothing has happened, over 13 years later.

Not really buying it, sorry.

Context. Context. Context.
otherwise non-comparable things may have comparable qualities.

Such as explaining how it is idiotic to not expect companies to do their R&D on a cure so they can make money selling drugs.

To be honest i have no doubt that companies do research with the best intentions but they also do it to get investment and some will be doing it knowing full well that that the real prize is to be bought out by a much larger company. A larger company that will almost immediately close down their operations and get rid of any competition that could potentially threaten its profits. This is not a far fetched idea i have dreamt up it is standard business practice especially with large pharma medical companies.

i hate to bump a thread that is 13 years old but look.... 13 years older, no cure. i wonder what all the posters who posted here are upto now, and how BALD they all are.
i was 19 at the time, with a thick NW1, driving to the beach with no thoughts about hair other than "damn my hair looks good" feelsbadman

Let’s bump up all the old threads containing delusional positivity. Baldies all defensive that a cure is right around the corner. Same thing said every year in the past 20+yrs.
