    Has my MPB progressed or am i getting insane?
    Ok guys, guess I’m back. As some of you may know I started using regaine two years ago, and frankly I don’t think it has given me any benefit. I have to be honest here; there were some days where I didn’t use it at all, I even stopped using it for like 4 months at some point. But I have been using it correctly for over 1 month now (two times application a day). When I first started noticing my MPB, IF it was MPB (even my derm wasn’t sure)., I started using regaine, it’s been two years now (I’m now 22).

    I have to admit that when I didn’t use it correctly I started shedding a lot again, but didn’t really care, but I’m scared shitless now, so I have been using it wisely now for like over a month, and the shedding has stopped again, COMPLETELY. So far, so good!

    My main concern is: has my MPB progressed as a result of me not using regaine correctly? When I first noticed my shedding two years ago I got myself a buzzcut (6mm=0,24 inches) so I could follow the development (all taken back in 2010 [without blitz]):

    And this is how it looks now, two years after (2012). All of these pictures where taken WITH BLITZ the same day I got myself a buzzcut (6mm = 0,24 inches) [Date: 25-06-2012] :

    And now the most annoying part that pisses me off endlessly; why the hell do I look almost bald now were my hair is growing longer? I had no sign of MPB prior to my buzzcut?! Is it normal for hair to look thin in the growing stage? These pictures were taken exactly 20 days after my buzzcut, all taken with blitz [15-07-2012]:

    Im not being funny - but whenever I have a health issue I usually book an appointment with my doctor.

    You might get some doctors response on here but its impossible to give you a diagnosis through pictures - and other then doctors you will just get idiots like Tracy C telling you to poison yourself by taking Finasteride.

    See a dermo.

    Longer hair tends to clump together therefore there will be more separation in the spaces that exist.

    Ok i just looked up on that DUPA hairloss, and i'm pretty sure it isn't DUPA, cause both my sides and back are a like even the crown are. It's only when it's in the growing stage that it looks thin. beisdes no one in my familiy had DUPA they all had MPB. All men in my family have ther sides and back...

    DUPA is not really hereditary. It just happens.

    And no you do not have DUPA. Your crown is far worse than sides and back.

    Which pictures are making you claim that my crown is far worse? When i look at the pics even the back around my neck and my sides look thin, look at the last pics..:confused:
