[tparnell39]

Hey Guys,

I have attached some photos.. for you to take a look at.

Do you think i'm balding. My dad is totally bald.. but thought it came from your mothers side?

Cheers

The photos aren't really good enough to judge, but from the looks of it you seem to have thinned at the front and your hairline seems to have receded.

So yes, unfortunately you seem to be balding but you are one of the lucky balders where lose their hair slowly.

thanks for that. do you think regain etc may help?

here are better pics:

Hi,

Sorry to tell you but you are balding...your hair is receding. Get on the big 3

proscar/propecia: once a day.

Minoxidil/rogaine: am/pm

Nizoral 1%: every 3 days.

Yeah, sorry mate. You are balding.

Your hairline is thinning out, you can tell because the hair behind the hairline does not look so "see thru".

This means that you are losing hair.

will regaine work on its own? not sure about propecia!? side effects?

hmmm regaine may help depending how your body takes it. I would try one medication at a time. Propecia/proscar works but the only issue you have to worry about is the side effects. Some people don't have side and other do, it's a risk you have to take. Try a lower dosage, half a 1mg every other day and work yourself up?

Do not use minoxidil. Save yourself the time. It is a garbage product. And if anyone successfully fools you into using it, do not ever quit. I did and lost a massive amount of hair....I only used it 5 weeks.

I'm not gonna recommend or not recommend taking fin, but if you decide to then I would definitely recommend,

1) Go to your doctor, get blood and hormone tests (also semen analysis if you can) done before you take it. This case if, God forbid, you get side effects, you have baseline measurements to refer to from before you altered your hormone levels.
2) Start on a low dose (0.25) at a 3-4 day interval, perhaps working your way up to 0.5, still at around a 3 day interval. It should be nearly as effective as 1mg and lower the chance for sides.

I personally would not bother with minoxidle just yet, unless you decide against fin. Your hair doesn't look so bad right now so you should wait and see how fin works (if you decide to use it).

My dawg! My doctor tried to short change me on hormones to test lol. Make sure you get Bio available Testosterone not just total T, it is the important one.
