Well it's got to the point with my hair that I’m so low on confidence that I so want to restore my hair to get my life back.
I'm a 41 year old male living in Kent, uk.
I first noticed my hair getting thinner in my late 20's. It has been a gradual process and something that has worried me now for so long.
To most people my hair looks ok. I can style it in a way that it looks normal.
It's only in the last 6 months that it's getting harder to hide my thinning hair.
It has got to the stage that it has taken over my life. I have no confidence in the way I look. I separated from my wife three years ago and currently live and work on my own.
It is getting to the stage where I’m happier staying in so I don't have to put wax in my thinning hair.
I have been in a new relationship for 5 months, but my all time low of confidence is now affecting this relationship.
I know I will not get through this stage of my life if I don't try to do something about it.
Last year I did a year’s treatment at the Belgravia centre in London. I used the Propecia and minoxidil treatment that just didn't work. It seems since I stopped my hair loss has increased.
I guess I’m after advice on what I should do next.
I know I will have to pay a hefty sum of money to try to do anything about it.
But I know if whatever I do is a success will make me happy again.
Is the best option for me to have a hair transplant? What are the costs.
Any replies would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks

Welcome to the forum.

First things first, please do not let your hair loss ruin your confidence and subsequently your life. You hair will do whatever is is going to do anyway, so spending your time worrying about it is just going to mean you waste time that you could be enjoying yourself.

That said, i feel your pain, so with that in mind, let us (the forum) help and guide you to try and assist where we can. After all, the majority of people on here have suffered some form of hair loss at some point in their life and a percentage of us have undergone transplant treatment to help.

So, whilst we get started on advising you, keep you chin up and lets get some of the basic facts about your hair loss to begin with....

What Norwood scale are you?
How rapid has your hair loss progressed?
Has your hair loss slowed recently?
Are you on any medication now?

Pictures speak a thousand words, so please post some up so we can have a look and help.

A good HT doesn't have to be expensive or traumatic, it just has to be right. The hardest part is making the decision to have it done or not.

We are here to help. Feel free to ask any questions you wish. I am 2 months post HT and feel much better already. It's the best thing i ever did and there are still 6-8 months of more hair to come through!

Chin up chap

Thank you for the kind words and all the others that has replied. I will try to add a picture in a while.
My hair loss has been very gradual. It's only the last year where it is really starting to look thin. I guess if you keep losing hair that is the only way to go.
My hair loss, to me, seems to have increased recently. Perhaps due to the fact I’m more and more worried about it.
I'm currently not any medication.

Hope this picture comes out.
These were taken this morning

Hi,

You should definitely try propecia and minoxidil again because it should help stabilise your hairloss. To be honest at your stage in life you have very dense hair and it shouldn't be affecting you in this way. I had lost 50% of my hair at 21 years of age.

The forum has one recommended clinic in the UK or you could send a personal message to Spex. He is a forum member with a lot of experience.

Cheers Rod
