  1. had mine with dhi philippines just last week. they are accommodating.
  2. im 35 now, started losing hair when i was 28. but only taking minoxidil. took some Propecia, just a few doses but i stopped due to its concerns. well hoping to get thicker hair esp in the front. i think my dad most of his hair in his 70s, but still have some hair left in front and back. norwood 4 at least. my started earlier planning to take biotin, gelatin after post op. what are your thoughts on platelet rich plasma? they would perform 3 sessions for me.
  3. what are your comments with saw palmetto? is it really safer than propecia? how do you apply minoxidil? will the bald areas still regrow hair? no more at the temples? just crown
  4. wow this is really depressing if i'm really headed to norwood 6. just had a consultation from 3 doctors. they said im currently border norwood 3 to 4. will need 2500 grafts if FUT or 2000 grafts if FUE. all said the same thing and will just cover the frontal parts. they won't touch my crown area until it gets thinner. 2 clinics i visited suggested me to get the platelet rich plasma just to thicken my crown. they think it could save it. if not, then do a 2nd transplant after 5 years or when necessary. what do you think of PRP or platelet rich plasma? im just scared with propecia as it could affect my sexual drive. how about saw palmetto? read it that it is a safer alternative. appreciate the responses here also added more pics. my hair is oily with coconut oil.
  5. crown is kinda thinning. oh thank you. wow that is a lot. so 3000 in the first procedure? i don't want to do fin. not an option for me. afraid of erectile dysfunction and fertility issues about it.
  6. appreciate the response. so going to NW4? this really kills my self esteem. so how many grafts should i need? im considering hair transplant
  7. going to have my consultation. what type of balding do i have? norwood 3? how many grafts do i need? actually my middle front is also thinning and at the crown. it gets thin when my hair gets oily.
  8. need also more feedback and picture with dr pineda. any feedback as well from DHI philippines?
