Should I start on rogaine?

[The Prestige]

Cut my hair short today #2 on sides #4 on top.


I'm not sure what to do or if I even have MPB still, and I'm sick of visiting derms and throwing away $30 for "Dunno maybe".


Doesn't seem to be a difference in the typical bald spot, but as you can see on top I can see my scalp. Is that normal for this length? I've never cut my hair this short.





All these photos were taken with a sky light lighting up the room.


My hairline hasn't moved since 2008 and I take medicine that I know thins my hair, so I'm not sure if I have MPB or not. But I also recently found out I have low T, so I'm gonna need to boost my test which scares me. Should I get on rogaine?

What? No.

[townie]

no. you literally have no hairloss at all. and your hair is not thin.

It appears to be thin on top

Step 1: 5mg dut per day

Step 2: Oral minox

Step 3: After loss is stabilized, head to Turkey for an FUT, only 50 cents per graft, to restore your juvenile nw0 hairline

Your hair looks pretty good. At least from the pics provided. You wanna see thinning? I'll show you thinning....

I know it isn't bad, but it's getting there. If I would have turned on the lights for that picture you would see my scalp clearly. I'm also getting sunburns on my scalp even when my hair is longer than this.

Funny joke.


But seriously once you turn on the lights my hair goes downhill.

ahh k it does look a little diffuse...but in the other pictures it seemed sides and back had same density

keep a close eye on it, if it looks like its getting thinner start treating it

Looking at your latest pics...I would definitely be concerned. I would jump on at least minoxidil. You are still young and can probably get a bunch of the hair you lost back.

looking at those pictures, there definitely is miniturization of hair follicles! i would reccommend getting on minoxidil and maybe also Fin!

You really think so? Interestingly my hairline hasn't moved since 2008.



You can tell by that little freckle by my hair line.

[townie]

If everyone posting on this forum had your hair they'd be happy.

It looks totally ok.
