    For the benefit of everyone reading this, here is a link to a page containing before and after photos of men who used Propecia (or generic Finasteride) and Rogaine (or generic Minoxidil).

    As you can see the results vary widely from barely noticable regrowth to significant regrowth. The only way to find out which one you would be is to try.

    BTW, if a feminine option helps you in any way, I think you look good as you are now.

    Some of you nay sayers totally crack me up. My mother does this same nonsense. Even while both her daughters, and now one of her sons, are resolving their hair loss right in front of her eyes, she will still insist it isn't possible to resolve hair loss. Too funny. You can't convince anyone of anything they simply don't want to believe.

    OK sweetie
    If you wanna take a pill for the rest of your life and grow hair and look like sh*t .......then go for it because that 's what the hair on the majoity of those pics look like
    Yea it sucks to lose hair but it 's worse to have a shitty HT and spend the rest of your life either chasing your hairloss or trying to repair the mess someone else created
    Read some of the stores on this site . There are lots of people that went down the HT route that regret it .........and yes there are those that love what they did , maybe they had more realistic expectations , something that maybe these ethical doctors never shared

    Im just trying to tell the OP that he's alreay sporting the buzzcut and it suits him
    As much as he doesn';t like it .........he can try the pills, potions and your laser comb but he will never get a a full head of hair like he when he was younger had

    Um. Everybody looks like crap in clinical photos. It's drivers license photos. I don't think most of them look bad anyways. My hair certainly does not look like crap. Besides the hair that grows back continues to improve over time as long as you stick with treatment. And yes, I will take pills for the rest of my life if thats what I need to do to keep my hair.

    You still crack me up though.

    Some years ago, he was asked this question in an interview. He said that because his specific type of hair loss is not common, the treatments that are currently available cannot help him. He also said he is not even a good candidate for hair transplant surgery.

    I've been on LLT for 8 months and I'd like to think is helping me, at least I think my loss is not as fast as it was before and yes my hair seems to be in a better health. Of course that's not the only thing I'm on, also use minoxidil and tried finasteride for 6 months(I quit on it 40 days ago)

    You hit the nail bang on the head there Dave ^^

    1- I want to use minimal pills and medication for hair loss .

    2- My sexual & general health comes well before hair loss !

    3- I am not rich by any means but at the end of the day money spent for HT is just money and it can be easily forgotten . However a bad hairtransplant may stay with you and haunt you forever as i have seen in some cases since i started my research about HT.
    In that respect , I would rather not have a HT if there are big risks of looking worse than i started .

    Dave i am not after a full head of hair as i had when i was 18 but i would like to have something . Nothing wrong with looking younger

    Here is what i am expecting to have from HT . They guy in the pics had the transplant done by the Dr i want to have .I see my hair loss similar to him . Total 4380 grafts which 850 were taken from the beard hairs . Pics are of the progress so far , Last pictures go up to 3 months and 5 days .

    It looks good to me so far and i would not mind a piece of the same action
