What Norwood am I? Is it time for transplant?

[Isneezedsohard]

Chance of hairline regrowth is low no matter how strong meds you take. You have to know yourself if the risks of taking strong meds are worth it for you. You have good sides, temples and crown. I wouldn't take so much sh*t if I were you.

Yeah I don’t wanna f*** up my life for hair. Here’s my estrogen levels and stuff. Just had these taken last week.

You are 26? You have maintained on meds for 4 years. You have no signs of thining other than NW2 area. I don't see a point in taking hormonal treatment in your case. Not much to gain.

im really interested in ORM as you've said. Looks promising. Just so nervous about using another product with no long term studies. I don't wanna have cancer at 40 years old

ORM cant cause cancer wtf. There is no association to cancer other than it being used to treat caner lol

Can just agree. In your case I would use duta/+fina, AA's (stronger than RU, because its just a scam and experimental drug ngl) and doing maybe a transplant.

Would you say ORM is safer than BioEstro? What about in comparison to RU?

That's the thing dude! It worked like a miracle for like 1 month. All of my shedding stooped. Then all of a sudden-- came right back

ORM us 100× potent than RU, if not, more.

Some experience even eye dryness, lack of oiliness on skinn/scalp etc because of the androgen deprivation. And even sometimes gyno.

Oral minoxidil is a poison, would anyone take it if not for hair growth? It's safe, in a sexual side effects way but I can't tell you its safe to use for the next 50 years of your life.

We dont know how it really acts, meanwhile we got the approved AA drugs (for PC).

Where would one obtain ORM from? And could I just switch from RU to ORM? Cold turkey?

The only think possible rn without big side effects is min, but you're already on it. Maybe oral min, but thats a bit harsh I guess becausw its actually used for heart problems etc. Some people say that small doses are ok, but dunno.

Not yet. I have another medical thing I need to deal with (all is good), and work is kinda busy. I need to tho. I'm making a note in my phone. I'm nervous to tell some guy what I'm doing cuz im sure he'll tell me to stop RU/dutasteride LOL.

Yes thats a good dose, if not, up to 5mg. But thats then the maximum

Your doctors should not and cannot advise you to use research chemicals. They should, however, acknowledge your use of these compounds when diagnosing you. Hopefully, you meet with a professional who has a scientific approach. It should also give you some peace of mind to have someone else helping you (and be accountable) for your hairloss journey.
