Pretty Boy status expired due to hairloss :(

[oOKawaiiOo]

Hello everyone, I wanted to start out talking about a little about myself and the history I had so far with hairloss and the treatments Ive taken. I just turned 24 years old a few weeks ago but still experiencing hairloss

Let me tell you about myself......
Age of 21, full of hair, I always had long hair and had used hair products to make my head look like a giant helmet. I love volumized hair. People would call me Goku from Dragonball Z because my hair was always stick up and it had so much volume. I usually spend from 30mins to 1.5 hours on my hair trying to make it look good (I will upload pictures later). The time is recorded from blow drying to the end of hairspray time. I would use 3 mirrors to style my hair. People knew me for my passion and love for my hair. I was high maintenance and had always carried a can of hairspray where ever I went. Everywhere I would go, I would always get compliment about my hair and how its pretty, how much volume it has, and how cool it was. The ladies had labeled me as the "pretty boy" and my mom thought I was a player. I would admit, getting girls WASNT a problem for me. I made it look easy. I was confident because of my hair. Sadly, this confident slowly went away.

I still remember that day, 3 years ago, when I noticed my hair was falling out. It was getting close to exam week (sophomore in college) and I was consuming lots of coffee and 5hr energy drinks. I stepped into the shower and BAM! Hair was falling like a tree in fall season. I was sure it was over 100 hair that was lost. I was shocked and couldnt believe my eyes. I thought it was stress related and from the high consumption of caffeine. So I didnt worry about it too much. As the days passed by, my hair density was going down and my tub was always filled with hair. Then I asked myself "Am I going thru hair lost?!" At first I was in denial and became desperate. After 3 months into hairloss, my gf had noticed lots of hair shed in the bathroom and saw a bald spot appearing on the vortex of my head. It was like a quarter size. So I went out (after doing massive research on hairloss) to get Rogaine topical foam. I used it as directed but it got in the way of styling my hair. It made my hair look shiny. So I took an alternate route and got propecia 1mg/day. I didnt have insurance and still dont so I was paying $80/month for 30 pills. However, THIS LITERALLY SAVED MY HAIR AND REGREW IT THICKER after a year or so taking it (I have pictures and will upload later).

Here were the side effect of propecia I had experienced:
Right testes pain
Slight sadness
Anxiety
50% strength loss in erection and hard to ejaculate
slight weight gain

I took propecia for 16 months and it worked. I had so much hair (pictures will be uploaded later) but was still losing hair. Propecia had slowed down my hair lost and regrew the hair into thicker stronger hair. I would lose about 45-60 pieces of hair everyday in the shower and 10-15 hair when I style it. I also blow dry my hair so I would lose 15 more hair But I have noticed that the hair I would lose were thinner hair than the thicker hair so I was fine with that.

What really struck me was my performance in bed I was having so much trouble trying to keep my wood hard that sex was basically like a workout I wasnt happy and im sure the girl wasnt too So I tried to take the propecia 23 hours ahead of time I knew I was going to get it on ....keyword "tried"....... Then I asked myself it it worth the $$, keep the hair I have and have bad sex or should I save $$, deal with hairloss, but have GREAT sex? I said to myself I dont need to have sex everyday. So I kept taking the pill.

I did stop taking propecia for 3 months and LOST lot of hair during that period (Worst decision ever) but my sex life was improved dramatically. So I got back on the propecia. I love my hair and want to keep all of it that I can. To this day, I am still losing hair (50-70/hair in shower). I wake up every morning and look at my pillow to see how much hair I lost while sleeping. To this day, I still check my shower drain to see how much hair Ive lost showering. To this day, I am still taking propecia. But I just started this new treatment called Nuhair 30 day kit 4 pills a day with meal and Ive started for only a month. It said it will take 3-4 months to see results and I want to know what is your opinion about Nuhair hair lost treatment It has DHT blocker pills and hair regrowth pills.

Why I picked propecia and Nuhair as a combination? I have a B.S in Biology and kinda know how the body works. Because hair loss is caused by a by-product of testosterone (DHT), propecia is a competitive inhibitor that prevents DHT from binding to the hair follicle. Propecia is only a DHT blocker, and its effective Nuhair has hair growth and DHT blocker too. So to me, these two treatments in combination are effective to help against hairloss.

NOTE After I took Nuhair, my side effects that I was experiencing from propecia went away! I remember before I was taking Nuhair, my gf would joke around saying I have a broken dick, which I kinda did. Because usually if she grabbed it or touch it, my dick would be on full blast. But it wasnt on full blast and she had questioned me if I had turned gay (btw, this is a new gf Ive been dating for 4 months now) This is funny but sad, she had woken up in the middle of the night and had the urge to "do it" but she tried her best to get it up and nothing happened. So she quit trying to make it hard and went back to sleep. Since taking Nuhair, I dont have this problem anymore. Im not sure why, and is questioning if Nuhair is canceling out propecia or are they working together so well that the negative effects of propecia has went away?

Here is just a brief guide of my hairloss experiences and treatments I took for that time:

Age 21: May 2009 to Aug 2009 (Rogaine foam @night)
Still losing +100 hair/shower

Age 21-23: August 2009 - March 2011 (Propecia 1/mg day)
Losing 45-60 hair/shower
Seen thicker hair grow in
Improvements on the vortex of my head
I will upload pictures later

Age 23 March to May 2011 Discontinued the use of Propecia
60-80 hair lost/shower
LOST the hair I grew when I was on Propecia
Hair thinning
Receding hairline
more exposure of vortex

Age 23-24 May 2011 - present (Propecia 1mg/day + Nuhair DHT/Hair regrowth)
50-70 hair lost/shower
Hair has grown back thicker on hairline and vortex
Lost negative effects of Propecia due to Nuhair?


I still do my hair but it isnt as good as it was 2 years ago. It usually had taken me 50 mins avg to do my hair. Now it only takes me 20-30mins. Hairloss has been a burden to me and has depleted my confidence as the time went by. I am so sensitive about my hair and a little one cry inside of me when I am able to comb my hair softly and a piece of hair falls out. I always say,"Its okay, because I know a thicker, stronger hair will grow in your place " *Fingers crossed*

So my plan is to test out Nuhair and its effectiveness for the next 3-4 months in combination with Propecia.

Comments/Questions.....Feel free to ask! I am very open!

(By the way, I have no affiliation with Nuhair or Propecia. I am a college student who is broke and just want to get my story out. I want to help people dealing with this hairloss. Just telling you what has worked out for me.)
