    You deny that hair loss is science that's fine, it is not science in your opinion and you are entitled to have that. I just wanted to make sure that it is in fact science and you deny that, regardless of "beneficial reasons" whatever that is.

    The reason why I provide definitions in a rational discussion is to make sure we are talking of the same things. And here it was as my post stated very extraordinary to see someone claim hair loss isn't science, I thought perhaps you had twisted definition of the word "science". It is not about showing superiority or arrogance, and I do not think you should consider yourself at the same level if you deny facts, that will again be your opinion. We might be at the same level that we understand the definitions provided

    I see no reason to comment further so I'll let you have the last word. And wish you a great life, maybe we cross each other in some other thread!
    No worries.
    Itīs always good to have different opinions, because then we learn from each other.

        If you want to go down the natural route, then that is your decision. As for me, however, I prefer to stick to my regimen of Dut and Minox.

        I’d like if you would report back to this exact thread with photos in ten years from now, and we will see how effective your all-natural regimen has been over that ten-year period.

        Maybe you will be that special snowflake, or maybe you will be in the 99.99999% of genetic hair loss sufferers who have tried to fight nature with nature and who have continued to go naturally bald.

          Exactly,it is my decision to go the natural way and i am happy that it works for me.
          I am so tired of all of those people who as soon as they hear the word ''natural'' they go ballistic.Let's go with minox,dut and don't give a damn about the sides effects.What the hell,at least the hair grows,right?

          I read comments where guys were sharing their stories about how they experienced side effects of different drugs for hair loss and they received answers that they should continue using it.So yeah,i would rather be a special snowflake that grows hair the natural way.I am not addicted to minox,dut,etc. and i respect other people's choices.

              You went to a doctor and got a diagnosis that you had MPB to begin with and not something else like diet related issues? Its hard to tell anything in pictures with different lighting, backgrounds, and stuff. You should find one consistent place, lighting, and everything for all pictures otherwise its like an infomercial where they have the dude grow his hair longer and smile to show he has more hair when its clearly not true.

                I just took a pictures with normal light.
                You have already decided not to not see any difference, based on what iīm using, so it wouldn't matter if i had a full set of hair.
                Iīm going to use the bathroom as usual, but it really docent matter.

                The reason why i posted also was for those that already use Fin or minox etc... to maybe try it out, and use it with their current treatment as a boost.
                Like i said hair loss is in both sides of my family and no i didn't go to the doctor, because itīs hair loss and not something that i have to treat or cure.

                  Whats the point with this forum, when everything gets trashed if itīs not Fin or minox (auto reply would be just fine) for newbies.
                  We dream of the next upcoming magical pill or cure, that our friendly scientist or doctor creates for us.
                  It is easy to blame genetics and believe my itīs pure gold for the industry, too keep us on the drugs and not think for our selves.

                  I used to take multivitamin pills before, because it was so easy to get all my needs in a one single pill!
                  Our bodies think otherwise and i (we) noticed that big time when we started juicing fresh greens instead due to the enzyme breakdown.

                  I have no clue if it is my topical home made snake oil, or my intake that has the most impact but iīm going to keep on them both
                  because for me hair regrowth is in symbiosis with health and not the opposite.

                      I dont remember saying that anywhere or saying anything that would imply that. Good luck I guess then with your method.

                        I am not trying to be negative, but you are not really slick bald in any of your "before" pics. Your temples are recessed, but it appears you have coverage everywhere else. Can you post current pics from the same angle as the "before" pics? Temple regrowth would be a huge gain.

                          I zoomed in the picture taken the 16th last month and a new one today on my temple.
                          Highlighted the areas where my new hair starting to show on the old one, and the new one (today) with my dark dead hair showing under the new hair.

                          The new one is during day time under light and the other probably (afternoon iīm assuming due to the darker background) under light.
                          The reason i joined this forum was because my sudden hair regrowth but i had no clue that this was such a delicate matter.

                          I should have read more posts on this forum and taken another approach , before posting.
                          I donīt have permission to shave my head again (it became a must for me for convenience) , since my wife suddenly became shallow because iīm growing new hair
                          But i do have a better understanding now, how forums like this works due to our society.

                            Good luck for everyone of you, and that you had to put up with a snowflake (wannabe) like me.
                            I really hope you will find your solution either by hair or just shaving it off since i donīt give a f..k (sorry) about our shallow society, but i still have to listen to my wife anyway.

                            I hope you got my point at least that i think hair (regrowth) is in symbiosis with health, and not drugs to handle a disease.

                              Sorry i forgot.
                              No supplements for me either, even if it is snake oil or drugs.

                                Managed to find a better old picture from last year.
                                Took a nasty close up picture on my crown.

                                Had to wet the hair because itīs light blond now, and split it to show that there is still regrowth.
