Okay, so I've posted here before (you can check my first thread for my hair loss back then) and I think it's gotten worse since then. I'm 23 and have been going through hairloss for about 1-1.5 years now. I'm now actually going to fight this back and see what I can do to prevent more as well as regain hair.
Before I would use rogaine on and off (wrong way to use it) and sometimes I'd see results and sometimes I wouldn't. I am now so determined to gain my hair back and have fully commited to the regime I have.
I went to the doc yesterday and with the purpose of getting a script for Procepia. I went in and she said I'm lucky that It's not any "disease" or anything like that that's causing my balding/thinning but I do have MPB. She was somewhat suprised that I was getting it at such a young age. She then prescribed me Finasteride which she said was the same as Procepia and told me to start taking the pills like so: take 1 pill and cut it into quarters and take one a day. Pretty much just taking 1/4 a pill a day so the script for 120 pills gets timed by 4 which can last me over a year.
I'm hoping it works seeing as how small the pill is as is and even smaller when it's cut into 4s but fingers crossed. I've also been reading around here about Dut which is supposed to be a stronger fin....Should I have asked about dut instead??? I want to get the best of the best to end this hair loss problem. Any advice or anything like that would be appreciated and I'll also post my regime as well as pictures.
Regime:
-Rogaine 2x a day (going to start the extra strength once this bottle is done)
-Finasteride 1/4 a pill a day everyday
-Biotin as well as general vitamins for overall health
I was also planning on doing a hair transplant (if it comes down to it) eventually.
Here are pictures of my hair right after a shower with it all wet, it's pretty bad. Dry it's still pretty noticable but obviously not as much as when soaking wet...Of course I don't wear my hair like the picture, I just spread it in the middle to show the hair loss. Judging by these pictures, can someone tell me how bad it really looks like it got? here it goes:
