    Default Have you ever seen someone in their 20s that was an appropriate HT candidate?

    The overall consensus on this site seems to be that if you are under 30, you should not consider an HT. Have you ever seen a situation where this was not the case?

    I do not think there is a hard and fast line in the sand, but I think that younger males may have too much active loss to undergo HT, and also may not have had time to adjust to MPB. I can tell you that when I was in my 20's I was practically in a blind panic over my hair loss, but by my 30s and 40's, while I still hated it, I calmed down a ton and could think much more clearly and objectively about it. In my 20's I think I would have been hard pressed to make a clear headed decision about HT surgery.
