Hey everyone, just signed up here
Im 16 and im completely screwed when it comes to genetics. My entire family has hair loss problems. My hairline was naturally weird since I was born but it has terribly receeded in the past 4 months. I do know the problem, though. I have been working out with a very high intensity and consistency. This leads to elevated testosterone levels, which means more DHT. My follicles were extremely sensitive to the increase in DHT and completely destroyed my hair. Im a narwood 2 atm. hair loss has literally made me depressed.
I have started using rogaine. My uncle who is a doctor said use 2% rogaine for a few months then start using 5%. I just hope this works and saves my hair or I might have to stop working out forever..
I have a question though.is it ok to use finasteride? Does my increased testosterone lvl from the gym cancel out its potential side effects?
