I feel for you dude. MPB is the worst cosmetic disaster that can happen to a young guy besides freak accident, disfiguring disease, etc. I was wearing hats nonstop a few years ago....many times now I still feel like saying "f*ck it" and just putting one one. At least it means wind/rain are not a problem. But I am afraid to go back to that, the temporary sense of relief becomes a prison

Unfortunately at your age you should not even consider a transplant unless you are on serious meds. fin + keto at the VERY least and see if your loss is stable after 14-18 months. You might want look into dut since it sounds like your MPB is aggressive.

On the bright side by the time you are my age there will be new treatments out that give you new options for restoration. Good luck to you, I wish you the best for sure

Thanks for the advice, but the thing is I have tried fin and those sides suck bad and if you could please or if anyone else can explain why age is a factor to someone who is young opposed to someone who is older if their case is as severe

If you have advanced hair loss at 19 this means you have aggressive MPB that will quickly progress beyond your transplanted grafts (unless you are on meds). It is also hard to predict your future loss pattern when things have progressed this rapidly at a young age, vs. a 50 year old who has slowly gone from NW2 to NW3v over 10 years.

Imagine if you get your hairline transplanted, and in 2 years you have a bunch of grafts in front with a bald area behind it. You would feel worse than if you were just going bald because it would look bizarre. And you only have so much donor hair.

Srsly if you are going to look into a transplant, you need to be on meds. It really sucks and I am sorry, but getting a transplant at 19-20 without the loss being stabilized is aesthetic suicide.

What kinds of sides did you have on fin?

[Aames]

Yeah, how long did you take fin for and what sides emerged? I am hoping you are not one of the "Oh, I took fin once and my penis fell off, my parents disowned me, I failed out of school, and now my life is over" people.
