    Hi guys, I would appreciate some advice regarding my hairloss. I have been suffereng for at least 7 years with loss especially over the vertex. Now Im also seeing a lot of scalp in the front as well. I am 32 and I have tried all the shampoos etc for preventing loss but recently I am seeing a lot on my pillow when I wake up from sleep.I have a few questions: 1. Finasteride I have always said that I dont want to take anything that will give side effects but now Im starting to think again. My questions are: a. Is it lifelong? b. If you stop taking it will you lose the hairs again? c. Should I start now or wait a few years(I am not married and would like to have children in the future) c. Can you get it online? 2. Minoxidil a. Is it also lifelong? Will you lose more hair if you stop taking it? b. How bad are the 'shock' hairloss you get from it at the start? 3. Transplant a. I have been told by some 'consultants' that my donor area is quite poor and this one clinic said that I am a poor candidate for HT. What do you guys think by looking at the pictures? b I read that doctrs usually dont like to perform HT for vertex loss. Is this true? I guess a lot of the questions have been asked before but I would be grateful for some advices. Thanks a lot!

    Thanks guys, I am kinda opposed to meds because some friends have used it and got side effects and I woud prefer keeping my wood rather than my hair if i had to choose:). Ill have a look into it. Any links onto blogs regarding use of low dose propecia and side effects?

    Hi guys, Just registered and impressed with this comunity. Ive been down a long time with my hairloss and thinking of a HT. Ive looked into a few surgeons but Dr Rahan and Hasson seems to be great. I havent used a DHT blocker and thinking of starting Minox. Any suggestions? I would prefer not to use Finasteride/Dutasteride. Here are photos of my bald head, feel free to comment/suggest. Thanks guys...:confused:
