What happened to hair loss forums in general?

[debyne]

Proof?

I'm living proof

Do you think you would've maintained on finasteride only? I'm on finasteride and I feel like I am still very slowly losing hair. I think minoxidil would help me maintain fully, I just cba to apply it every day and it's expensive here, it's cheaper to take oral minoxidil.

I definitely think min gave me regrowth. As many have said and I also truly believe, finasteride + min is like 1+1=3

I'm a long time member here, I posted more at hairlosshelp.com, but posted here a good bit. And at Spencer's the Bald Truth forum. But around the time the great Brian Shelton passed away, I kind of lost interest and stopped posting.

And I came back last night, and WOW.

Seems traffic has dropped off hugely here and at Spencer's (even worse there). And hairlosshelp.com forum looks to be absolutely gone.

What has happened? Has there been some new miracle cure I missed out on? Or has everyone just given up lol?

I miss the old day where gunslingers were slinging the science around LOL.....

Or maybe there are new hair loss forums where everyone has gone?

Thanks!!!

Reddit is replacing internet forums in general. HairLossTalk.com is actually doing far better than most.

Are you bald?

Still have my hair, diffuse thin and a bit more loss on the crown than normal but not bald at all. Definitely not as thick as before though.

I've used revivogen and folligen consistently all these years, as well as laser combing 3x a week. I use Nizoral 3x a week as well as Nano shampoo (Recommended by good old Bryain, R.I.P).

My younger brother has a bald spot (2 years younger than me) so I think I've done pretty well, I guess I slowed down my hair loss more than anything.

Attached is a picture of my crown and hair. The picture is whilst out in bright sunlight as I've moved out to the Middle East now.

Hope that gives you guys some positive news!

Looks very good considering you've been battling hair loss for at least 2 decades.

I think what happened is the following:
- Social media in general sucking up peoples attention
- Reddit being a better "quick fix" for information
- Google search results

Lets face it, we used to roam these forums as a pass-time. But the youth doesn't do that, they spend time on tik-tok or instagram, so no new users. Also google doesn't have these pages ranked anywhere near the top when you search. That has been going on for almost a decade so again influx of new users finding these posts is low. Everybody knows Reddit, unfortunately Reddit isn't a good store of information as these forums are, so much more information gets lost. Not particularly hopefull for hair loss forums

OKNOW stopped posting. Internet forum died as a result.

These type of sites are depressing as all hell. Many of us have grown old on them anxiously waiting for miracles that never came
