  1. Hi all, Apologies if repeated, I did post this on another forum, but keen to get as much advice/as many oppinions as possible. I've only just signed up on here. i've tried to contact 'Spex' but it sent me a delivery failure, i think his inbox is full, is he still around?? Was Spex on this forum? Anyway, this is the message I sent him, if anyone wants to help/advise me, please feel free: Hi there, I'm 26 and suffereing from MPB; I have been loosing hair for about 5-6 years or so now. I have done some reading and had two consultations so far. The main affected areas are the front hairline where it's receeding, and general thinning on top and around the scalp.I've tried regaine, but stopped using it a while ago, and now back on it but will be more patient this time. I'm looking at surgery for the frontal thinning areas. I've had two consultations; one recommended 1700 grafts, the other around 1200. I've attached some photos of my hair when cut fairly short, so you can see. I miss being able to style my hair when going out. I hate it all of the time anyway, I'm embarrased and try to push it down/spread it out by hand, and I hate it getting wet. I don't like my photos taken any more because of how bad it looks, and I'm fed up of comments from people. I'm only 26 and don't want to loose my hair for good. I've read up on propecia, I was realy excited when I first heard about it, but am too scared of the side effects, and therefore I'm ruling this out. I am seriously considering surgery alongside the minoxidl, however I'm not confident as to perhaps who to go with in the UK? I may possibly consider travelling abroad, but don't want to travel too far or pay a lot for travelling ontop of surgery costs. I have read good reviews of the Farjo clinic? I thank you in advance for any support or advice you may wish to give. Shaun.
