Raptor's Story - ( 27/ PICS)

[raptor]

Hey everyone.
New here and a bit worried about my hair.

I'm 27 years old and have recently noticed some hair thinning.

What would you say? I appreciate all the help i can get.

looks like your diffusing

go see a derm and confirm it

then get prescribed finasteride

then go from there

cheers mate

One told me i wasn't following the Norwood scale. So it can be something else?

Raptor

 

[BodyDysmorphic]

diffuse hair loss suffers don't usually follow a Norwood pattern

they just diffuse usually until they reach Norwood 5-7

good new is that diffusers usually respond well to treatments (finasteride)

hope this helps

cheers mate

Thanks mate.

Also another question.

Each time i strike my hand across my hair, i get 1-2 hair. Sometimes though i don't get anything. Its a 50% chance. One day was really bad and i got 2-3 hair one each strike (the head was itching also), but nowadays its a 50% chance i get something on my hand. Is that bad?

Is it also quiet sure that all the hair i loose each day will not grow back?

losing under 100 hairs a day is natural

the hair always get replaced by a new one

the new hair shaft (if being miniaturized by dht) will come back the next time thinner less pigmented and with a shorter hair cycle

drugs like finasteride help your miniaturizing hair recover from the effects of dht and grow back stronger

i think you should get on some treatment though mate

have you started?

 

[raptor]

Hey BodyDysmorphic.

Thank you very much for the responds mate, i appreciate them all very much.

Yes i have started but not on a full scale.

I've started with nizoral (since last week, 3x a week) and today i started drinking some green tea unk: .

I think i'm leaning torwards starting with minoxidil very soon.
I'm not so much up for finasteride though. I don't like pills and the side effects. :sobbing:

Thanks again. Hope to hear some more answers and solutions in the future.

Yea. I forgot.

Almost all hair i shed is thick and long and not thin/short . Does that say anything?

Raptor

 

[BodyDysmorphic]

the hair thickness or diameter you shed really doesnt matter

what you need to look for is the "end of the hair" not the bulb part

if the end hair is tapered "meaning comes to a point and fine at the end

if the shed hair you see is blunt "meaning it was cut" you really cant tell whats going on

if you see "shed" hair that is relatively short and has a tapered end
this means that the growing cycle is shrinking and those follicles will go soon

i hope this helps

but you really need to reconsider using finasteride
not many people get sides and it's really you best shot for keeping the hair you have now

cheers mate
