    Default Am I too far gone for rogaine to work?

    I cant use fin. My T is very low for my age and no doctor will prescribe it right now and they have all said it will cause more damage right now will already super low T levels. I would need to wait a year after HRT to see what my T levels will be.

    I'm hoping rogaine can improve my hair until I can get on fin in a year or two. But am I took far gone?

    This is about a foot away with flash ON. Under normal light, it looks okay and no one can really notice.

    To answer your question: Hell no your hair is not too far gone. Minoxidil gets a bad rap. I didn't bother with it because I always heard stories about it being ineffective or a pain to use. Now that I am using it, I can tell you it is not that big of a deal to apply, especially with short hair which you have. Effectiveness will vary from person to person, but it does work, some people will have great results with it. It is also so cheap. If I was in your position I would just apply it all over the top of my head morning and night. Just stick with it. Don't use it for 3 months and say "this crap doesn't work" and be done with it. Give it time to work. Hopefully it will buy you some time until you can possibly get on fin.
