Hi all,
Is there any difference between paying a hair clinic to treat vs me using there recommendtions and just purchasing what they have advised?
They have advised to use propecia which I was fine with until I read this forum and now I am shit scared of using this and hoping maybe I could drop this option and just use the other treatments they have recommended??
There is no way I am going to risk loosing my sex life for a possible chance of regrowing hair, I've done that before with an anxiety drug my GP prescribed me as I started to pull out my hair strand by strand for no reason at all and it never grew back. I just cannot put up with ejaculation issues and erection problems as I have never fully recovered from the last time this got messed up.
Does it make a difference to my treatment the fact that my hair is not falling out but instead being self inflicted?? I tried that regain but didnt see much improvement.
This is what has been recommended:
The medication recommended for your condition is Propecia (once a day tablet) as well as Minoxidil in, a 5% + Medroxyprogesterone topical treatment (twice daily) or Minoxidil 12.5% +Azelaic Acid all of which are MHRA and FDA approved. The strength of Minoxidil is dependent on your severity and problem area, Minoxidil 12.5% +AA is for higher severity or difficult areas such as the hair line and the Minoxidil 5% +MPG is for wider areas, thinning of the hair or early deterioration.
Since you have described your hair loss as on the top and sides with deterioration between 2- 5 years I would give a preliminary recommendation of Propecia and Minoxidil 5% + MPG, this is due to your hair loss being located in a wider area which is easily catered for using the Minoxidil 5% liquid solution. This will be confirmed however upon starting your treatment to ensure the most effective treatment is undergone.
