Hello, everyone!
Long story short, i'm 20 years old, and my hair is receding slowly. I noticed it when i was 18 year old. 6 months ago i went on finasteride and minoxidil, only on my temples. It worked really well, and im going back to norwood 1 (was norwood 1.5-2). I was so happy with the results. because my life is very stressful. I'm very self-conscious off how i look and behave around others.
The results shocked me, i couldn't believe the results that have only shown up in 6 months, but there is a catch... after 2-3 months some side effects showed up. I lost my morning wood, weak erections and loss of interest in women. Im heterosexual but i dont care anymore. Before i was a really horny teenager lol, i was wanking 4-5 times a day and woke up with wood 7 times a week, so you understand, this is taking a bite of my life to lose my libido.
Don't get me wrong, finasteride is a great drug that has helped thousands of males to keep their hair, and it has helped me to, but i can't deal with the side effects... But i want to look young to.. So I've decided to ween of the drug.
The stress of studies, pressure to look good and not being able to have sex with a girl is killing me. I can't focus on my studies because of this.. its killing me.
I'm not balding, but only receding temples, but still, it hurts like hell emotionally, i feel like a trainwreck. My dad is Norwood 3 (50 years) and mother dad is around the same. Should i just man up and cut my hair short and deal with it? I dont know what to do.. I feel like I've made a pact with the devil.
Can someone give me advice, how did you handle your hairloss? Please help..
