5mg Finpecia ordered, pill cutter bought -- it's time

[BigThinker]

I was saying that to 25 going to 65, not you. And please stop repeating that "You want everyone to suffer from baldness", because I don't. You are showing some recession, no doubt, but I have seen some people here who are not even NW1 and thinking about taking avodart! Now if that is not BDD, than what else is it?

Haha my bad. I just was reading a string of comments and not paying mind to who they were directed to. But, in my defense, you are always on about fin sides.

Oh, so a study found that people have insecurities related to their appearance. Sounds ground breaking.

Bottom line is I have miniaturization, recession, and diffusion identified by an accredited professional. Further, on the paternal side of my family every dude goes bald.

The only thing I can't understand is: 1.) Why you want to convince guys that are clearly balding that they aren't, 2.) Why you think your faceless internet persona is somehow going to convince me otherwise.

I'll speculate: 1.) You want everyone to suffer from the full extent of their baldness because you couldn't or wouldn't do something about yours, 2.) Actually, nevermind, I have no idea why you would think you could convince me other wise.

Here's the pic of my hairline, Mike. One of the pics shows the recession, the other shows the diffusion, and the last one I tried to get the miniaturized hairs in the shot. Other than that, you'll just have to take my word on it, good sir.

[BigThinker]

You won't regret it, trust me.

I know I won't. I've been jonesing for my fin to get here every since I placed the order. My only regret is that I didn't do it 8-9 months ago at first indication.

to be honest mate your hair looks fine , but you know best !

Thanks, mang. It's hard for me to get a picture that really shows it. I've attached one that shows the current status pretty well. Edit: I accidentally hit submit and don't have the attachment option in "Edit". See post below.

I always used to think "if my penis falls off the net result would be the same as if I lost all my hair, so nothing to lose...."

As you can see I was never well equipped to handle balding

Yo guys. Fincar 5mg just got here.

I cut it into 8ths, which was surprisingly easy, and popped the first one without thinking twice (0.625 mg).

I've taken baseline pics and stored them on my comp, but for the purposes of this forum I will be treating the pics on the original post as baseline.

mmmmmmmmmmmmm that's about it.

You won't regret it, trust me.

Bah! Who needs 'em anyway.

Thank you for the reply BigThinker. My hairline has been creeping has well and it sucks but FIN has alter it. So far, I only shed about 5 hairs when I shower which is better then 15 hairs a couple a weeks before. Ha true, I also analyzes every ones.

You bet, bud. Yeah, my hair shedding is naturally slowing down on, but the old hairs aren't coming back - time to intermittent, low-dose it with fin.

[dex89]

I've always had a big forehead and my temples have been non-existent for as long as I can remember. I'm basically not shedding much anymore. I can shake my finger tips through my entire scalp as hard as I can and only have 2-3 fall. The hairs that fall are typically very light in color by the bulb, but normal color otherwise. The hair behind the hairline is very light and blonde towards the bulb, like the hairs fall out.

My hairline has been creeping back for 1.5 years I would estimate, based on pictures. And, I can't foresee it stopping. Currently, about 1/4th to 1/2th an inch from the hairline and back is incredibly thin - especially on the side that I aggressively part it (left side, see picture above). So, I've come to the conclusion combing my hair on that side has expedited the receding process and/or I'm receding asymmetrically (which I've read is rather common).

I have no diffuse thinning behind the "frontal lobe", and the diffusion is worse towards the front, getting gradually "better" towards the back. From what I've read, http://www.****************/hair-loss-pdf/propecia-frontal-hair.pdf, fin might save my frontal lobe.

I'm not thinning like my father (aggressive NW7 - bald by 27, or so) and I'm nothing like my maternal grandfather (NW1). I've noticed, recently, that my hair loss is damn near identical to my paternal Grandfather when he was slightly younger than me, as well as my paternal uncle. If my hair follow suit with them, it'll be the same M shape that gradually keeps moving backwards (maintaining the M) until NW5-6. My paternal uncle is in his early 50's and has froze at about an NW 5.

We were looking at old pictures at Christmas, and I saw a picture of my paternal grandfather with hair loss JUST like mine, except at an NW3-4, and my grandmother estimated he was 25-27 years old (after I inquired). It's funny how when we get self-conscious about balding we begin analyzing everyone else hair.
