My story : 29 years old male , suffering with hair loss since I was 23

Homeopathy has been proven to be a SCAM! If anything, a placebo. Naturopathy probably has more value for many illnesses, but I have not seen anyone on here with any significant hair regrowth from "natural" therapies. Adding a little bit of hair to a thin head of hair... does not help if you want serious density.

Ok guys , lots has happened since I last posted.

In short

1 I have met one of the leading HT surgeons in India , Dr tejinder Bhatti and he has recommended me 2500 grafts for hairline ,temples ,front half of scalp.
2 Met the said Dr once again
3 Met 2 more doctors for consultation and they suggested something similar

At last I have made up my mind to get the HT done at the end of this month .

I am attaching the mail which I have sent to the doc to clear my final doubts after much research . If anyone can help please go ahead.

Also attached are pics from my first visit to Dr bhatti and my pics as of today before getting a HT done .

Guys can you help a fellow hair loss sufferer in a confused state

I have almost decided to get a HT done but have the biggest doubt from the first day itself-

Shockloss / Am I a candidate at present - Since I am not completely bald in the frontal region where Hair will be transplanted ( however the hair in this region are definitely thinner and weaker than other areas ) Can the existing hair in front portion fall off after hair transplant due to shockloss.Is it possible that one year post hair transplant , my native hair in front portion do not return back , only transplanted hair remains , leaving me with a density equal or lower than current.

In other words I have read that to be eligible for hair transplant in a particular area , the density in that area should be less than 50% . In my case is the density less than 50% ? . Do you think one year post hair transplant the density will significantly increase .

This confusion is really delaying my decision about HT . Can you guys please share your opinions

Have attached the area where doctor will do the hair transplant and marked the area I am talking about.

I wouldn't do a HT for at least another 10 years and hopefully products like Repilicel will be available by then.

Should I add a ketocinazole shampoo weekly/bi weekly to the regimen as I have seen it is recommended to be done with finasteride. Will also help since I get flare ups of sabbhoric dermatitis sometimes. What do you suggest.

yes try it out. No harm.
Although in my case continuous usage is required to prevent flare ups

Here is a big update guys

I have got a date for my hair transplant with Dr tejinder Bhatti , Darling Buds . Have paid the advance on 1 December and have been confirmed the date on 1 March 2019
Waiting for the date eagerly ( 69 days to go : Have a tracker on my phone )

Have been suggested 2500 grafts for hairline ,temple creation and mid scalp by the doctor ( this was in may 2018 hence may even go a little higher now )

Let's see how it goes , will update my journey with you guys.

Naturopathy probably has more value for many illnesses.

I don't think hair loss medication in a shampoo does anything, to be honest.

I would try topical Finasteride, or hop on Dustasteride. That really did great things for my hair. My hairline is starting to finally grow back in.
