But how come my hairline is worse than it was when I started?

I've been on propecia for about 5 months now and i've seen no slowing down of shedding or any thickening at all. My hairline has gotten worse and I'm not sure if propecia is working at all. I know this might be too early to say but i'm only 18 and thought maybe this would make me get at least some results quicker then a guy in his 30's. Am I just being too impetiant or should I give up on it and just accept that I will be almost bald before 20?

Well, I don't think that it's sold in my country, but I'm not a hundred % sure. I just really wan't to avoid having to buy much more than just propecia but if it's not that expensive here and they do sell it, I will propably give it a try. But won't propecia be enough to stop it?

What if I can't get Nizoral? Can propecia be enough to stop it?

Ok so has been thinning quite a bit but I started on Propecia a few months back. But when i pick at the part of my scalp that has thin hair there are very often little yellow balls on the end of the hair that I pulled out. Sometimes they're pretty big and easy to see. I suspect that it could be the sebaceous gland of that particular hair follicle that I just pulled out. I was just wondering if it really is the sebaceous gland and if it is, does that mean that the hair is dead and wont be able to grow back again?

Hey Micheal. Thanks for the reply I've read a lot about it and I don't think I'm going to have an HT, at least not any time soon, because I'm still too young to know the extensity og my M.P.B. It also costs a fortune in my country, I'd have to use all my savings from when I was 14, which I'm going to use for University. I'm just hoping that Propecia will be enough to at least stop the shedding.

Dude, compared to me, you have really nice thick hair. I'm also 18 and my hair is waaaayyyy worse. I started taking propecia about 2 months ago and hopefully my hair will thicken up. If I were you I'd start on propecia as well. I'ts really the only thing you can do that dosen't involve surgery.

I actually shaved my head after I took those pictures but it looks worse . Every time I'm under light, it looks like I'm almost bald, which sucks so I wear a hatt almost everyday at school.

I will. Thanks for the feedback

Thanks for the reply I'M really just hoping for thicker hair and maintenance. Anything else would just be a bonus

Hey, I'm new to the forum but I have been lurking around for quite some time now. As the title suggest, I have a receding hairline and am only 18 years old. I have always had a high forehead but only recently have I been experiencing thinning on the top of my head and my hairline has been receding. It has really had an impact on my confidence and I don't go out with my friends anymore because of how self conscious I am about it. I started taking propecia(1mg) for about 2 months now and I know it's too early to see any results but was wondering about few things: 1. I have a line of thin little "baby" hairs where my hairline used to be. Has anybody experienced it before and is it possible that those hairs will thicken up again or is it to late for them? 2. I used to be able to grow long hair. If propecia works, will I be able to grow long hair again? Any feedback will be appreciated P.S. Sorry for the bad lighting
