im going to stay on it but after all the searches ive done about rogain, it seemed that shedding was actually common for rogain and propicia. BTW my hair does actually seem thicker i dont know if its cuz the rogain or revita that i have been using for a month. i just dont want to get a suprise were all of a sudden i start shedding hard cuz i havent thus far.

Ive been using the rogain foam for about a week and have seen no shedding. Is it possible that i wont shed cuz when I used propecia I didnt shed but have stoped usage from the hastle of getting a hold of it. Have any of you guys experienced no shedding from rogain?

hey jupiter i just picked up a one month supply of propecia from the pharmacist for 70 bucks. Where do you get yours from cuz 70 bucks for 30 days is too expensive and i dont know what website to trust.

oh btw good job man i have way worse hair than you b4 you started. my hair line is good but im thinning on the whole top of my head. whats funny is that no one in my family has gone bald and my bro told me that he had the same hair as me at my age and he used propecia for 4 months and his hair came back? Thats odd cuz i heard once you stop your hair falls out too. I know he is not lying cuz my dad even told me that he was like me when he was my age. Have any of ya'll heard of this type of situation.

Meat, yeah im creepin up on 7months now propecia, 6 months rogaine and i truely havent noticed really any side effects. I mean i haven't had any reduction in my sexual thought, i can still get a woody. there are times when i think its not hard enough but i realize thatthe only times i had thought that was after i had drank atleast15 beers, so.. take it how u want it. DONT LET UNEDUCATED people scare you from trying it, wats the worst that can happen? if your on it and don't notice ne sides EVEN if isnt regrowing hair its not hurting you. take it for a month and if you feel sides quit it and everything goes back to normal.

Yea man im going to the doc tommarow to get a prescription. Imma buy my first bottle at the pharmacy and if i like it than imma order online cuz i heard its cheapier. Do any of you guys know a legit site??

Hair loss is really a crapshoot. Genetics plays a huge role, of course. But it is possible to have everyone in your family have no loss, while you have tons, and vice versa. There are multiple genes involved, so it is not easy to predict who will get the loss and who won't. Some of the genes reside on the X chromosome, which explains why people try to look at "their mother's side of the family" for clues.

 

If you are a guy, you have 1 X chromosome, which you got from your mom. But the problem is, you can't just go and look at her dad and expect to have similar loss. There is only a 50% chance that you got that chromosome, because your mom had 2 different ones to potentially pass along. You would have to evaluate everyone from that side of the family for any valuable info.

 

There are other factors which also can lead to hair loss, such as endocrine disorders (i.e. thyroid, etc). Certainly anabolic steroids make one very prone to losing hair rapidly. However, simply working out a lot will not significantly elevate your DHT levels or cause you to experience hair loss.

 

Bottom line is you probably still have pattern baldness with DHT as your culprit. However, it would be a good idea to go to your primary care doctor at some point for a check up and basic labs (which would check your thyroid, anemia, etc.)

Yea Doc thats why imma go check it out with my doc because i wanna know if i have any thyroid problems or anything of that nature. I have one question, if i were to go on propecia and lower my dht, i know it will effect me in the gym but do you think going to the gym more often would elevate my test lvls so that i can be as strong as i was before going on meds?

longhairdude just go to a regular doctor to check you out and prescribe you some Propecia. Thats what im planning to do, dermatologists is too expensive.

hey jupiter im 19 too and my hair is worse than yours. Im thinking about meds but did you feel any side effects. cuz i workout alot and if taking meds messes me up than forget that.

alright i just talked to my brother today and he said that he was thinning at 22 and used propica or whatever its called and he said he got hair back and after 4 months he stopped using it, now he is 30 and he has a full head of hair. I thought that you loose the hair you grew, after you stop using the product.

thanks for the feedback, its just when i look at my family, it doesnt seem to be genetic. So im worried that something is wrong with me. Like i said before ive always had kinda thin hair and i noticed when i began to workout and take supps such as protein it got worse. Anyways im probably just gunna try one of those thikining shampoos.

hey guys, heres my situation. Absolutely no one in my family is bald except for one uncle who went bald at like the age of 40. Im 19 and my hair is getting thinner. Ive always had thin hair but now its getting worse. I dont think its genetic and the only thing i can think thats causing it is that im a gym rat and could it possibly be the whey protein i take daily thats possibly effecting my DHT lvls? If any of you guys can give me any kind of feedback it will be much appreciated. If not, do any of ya'll know a website were i can find a hair specialist around my area. Thank you in advance
