Apologies for the delay. I’ve been off the forums for awhile. I lose upwards of 200 per day. Most still long but all weak. The temples and forelock are diffusing like crazy.Hello my friend, i am french so i apologise in advance for my english.
I do have the same pattern as you, 28 years old , thinning and overall shedding back, side, and top and my hairline is quite not touched actually. I think it is DUPA and it is similar to female pattern hair loss actually.
Some studies showed that high prolactin level can cause hair on side and back to become sensitive to androgen as well. So might be something to dig in. Also annecdotally, it seems that DUPA sufferer are sensitive to DHT but also to Free testosterone in scalp. Apparently DHT seem to cause localised thinning where testosterone cause diffuse thinning.
If you have been to a dermatologist, i hope she gave you a full bloodwork to do because besides that they are useless,
You need to check for :
-nutritionnal defficiency
-metabolism glucidic ((Glucose, insuline sensitivity,)
- full hormonal check : cortisol, LH ,FSH ,Prolactine, E2,17OH progesterone, progesterone, SHBG, testosterone total, free T, androstanediol G6470, delta 4 androstenedione, DHEA-S, DHT ....
- inflamatory syndrom ...
I am going to do a full blood check this friday, so i will send you the result here in 2 weeks if you want. If you have done a full blood work too, it will be great to compare it to check for similitude.
To tell you a bit about myself i started to lose hair all over since 3 years now.
I only started 7 month ago to take 1 mg finasteride daily, but it has thin my hair considerably because of the boost of scalp tesoterone it caused i think. I tried to add different antiandrogen topically such as ru58841 to tackle the rise in T (had to stop due to chest pain , shortness of breath), i used now topical cb0301 30mg/day but it is not enough powerful so it doesn't do sh*t. I am going to try topical bicalutamide now soon as it is a stronger AA and i think we have to fight testoerone as well.
Besides finasteride + cb0301 i don't take any supplement and it didn't stop my shedding at all.
I am curious to know about how much you lose hair per day, what regimen are you on, it seems you use minoxidil, dit it worked on you ? and how you manage to apply it all over your head ?
Also can you share if anything in your regimen has improved your situation so far or make it worse. Would be great to share info
You can send me a message privately as well.
Looking forward helping each other to solve that sh*t.
Best regard
I struggle with sides on the AAs I have pressed on but fear I’m ruining my health. I used topical Dutasteride 3x week. .25 Propecia ED, oral minoxidil 5mg ED, and have been on 50mg premixed Chemyo RU for 4 months. NOTHING has slowed this down but my libido is gone and my dick feels dead. Stopped HCG for 4 months and the sides became worse. Not sure what to do. Diffuse top and rapidly thinning/receding hairline. Saw Bauman says the diffusion is bad. I have had every lab done and do follow up labs every three months. DHT stays low T average with higher e. They added T3 to my thyroid meds and my test increased and my hair got worse.
