Treatment Protocol?

What side effects exactly do you experience if you don't mind?

I feel like as im now getting up in age, my sex drive isn't what it used to be compared to my late teens early twenties. But it also makes me wonder how much fin is affecting it.

Oh and BTW I always tried to use Rogaine twice a day, I left that part out.

Sorry for late reply, been busy.

Finasteride makes semen watery and maybe erections 10% less frequent but stil feeling pretty good these days. No complaints from women!

Without getting into too much details I still experience your first side. My ex even commented on it. Seems like it's not one of the sides that goes away.

Yeah the medical literature documents that one pretty well. Oh well, gotta take the pros with the cons i guess.

Glad I did not get a transplant. Content with my situation.

Good. Your hairline is fine.

Yeah, it would be nice if it was a tad lower (1-2cm) but this is not an unmanageable scenario from a style or aesthetic point if view. Thanks.

Over 6 years on finasteride.

In general, what is the ideal age for a hair transplant?

What is the age which ethical surgeons would unanimously agree it is "safe" to get a transplant assuming no donor thinning or any other abnormal occurences? I.e. a good transplant candidate.

Just looking for maybe an average age as everyone is different. I am guessing it is around 35 as Spencer Kobren said he doesnt recommend any guy get FUT under 35 on the radio show before. Thoughts?

I wouldnt think there really is a set age as it is based on your own physiology and circumstances.


However, if you are balding fast in your 20s and a Norwood 4 by 24, then id wait at least over 35 to see how this is headed or if it stabilizes. Then decide if you are comfy with a procedure and if any meds work on you.

If you are receding very slowly and still holding ground well at age 30 the you may consider one around that time.

Some decisions may need to be made depending on hair loss in your family overall.

Its best if you do not have to get a procedure, but if you do and the circumstances are right, then age 30+ should be a good starting point imo.


I know some known docs that did fut to kid out of high school. This was for a natural hairloss case. That id disagree with.
