Receding 22 years old

[22years]

Hi everyone I'm a 22 male who has been reading this forum for a while. My hairline is a severe type 1 / low type 2 on the Norwood scale. It is more noticeable on the right temple. I have fairly long hair and brush it forward to hide my receding hairline. My hairline has been receding since the age of 19. The most dramatic increase in hair loss has occurred in the last 6 to 8 months. Last summer I was brushing my hair back and using a hair-dryer which I think contributed to my hair loss so I cut this out after a couple of months.

For the past 3 months I have been taking Saw Palmetto, multi vitamin tablets and Sea Kelp daily. I'm not sure if this will even reduce my rate of hair loss but I thought it is worth a go! For the past two weeks I have been applying Kirkalnd Minoxidle to my receding hairline every night and which I purchased form http://www.minoxidil-direct.co.uk in liquid form.

Thinking about starting Propecia. http://ukfinasteride.info/. Is this a trusted brand? I'm sceptical, I do not want my sex life to go downhill. I may start on a low dose to see if I develop any side effects.

Should I also be using any specialist shampoo and conditioner? I currently shampoo and condition every morning, is this too much?

In the summer I plan to travel Asia for around 8 to 12 weeks. Has anyone travelled with hair loss treatments. Can I take the treatments on a plane or across borders? If I cant take the treatmens with me should I stop them now as stopping the kirkland minoxidile treatment in 7 months time for 2/3months will shed hair quicker than if I didn't start the treatment at all?

I will upload some photos soon! Appreciate any comments, thanks.
