    Thanks Melvin, I understand your point, but also @jimcraig152 has made an interesting argument: it's really a wise choice to wait if MPB is affecting the quality of your life and of your youth?

    According to you it's wise to wait at least for 25th birthday or it's still too early? I'm on medications and I'd like to wait for some years, but hair loss depresses me and I don't know how long I can stand.

    Yes, I did when I started medications not to see hair shedding. People told me why I did it, however i didn't take pics of myself. I have only photos when I had a buzzcut. I have a strange head so I think I look better with hair, however the real problem is my weight, I'm skinny and with a shaved head I look like a cancer patient. Thanks for your post, guys!

    I don't like my head shaved, but the fact is that I fear I would have to shave my head in the future if the transplant fails, hair loss goes on etc. and in this case I'd have also scars from FUE or FUT. For this reason I'd never go with a FUT because the scar would be big, white dots are far less noticeable but still visible...

    Hello to everyone, I'm 24 and norwood 3a and I'm considering to have an hair transplant as soon as I get 25. However, even if hair loss depresses me, I'm a bit hesitant on the idea: both FUT and FUE leave scars, and it means that, if needed, because the transplant go wrong or my MPB progresses even with Finasteride I will not be able to shave my head without doing other expensive procedures. Has someone gone through this?

    It seems that Koray is suggesting his last patients to take Dutasteride, you are not the first. Happy growing!

    Fortunately if Breezula comes out and it works it could be taken with Finasteride to block DHT systemically and also topically (along with T in this case). I think no MPB could not be stopped in this case. For @azza786, I'm only norwood 3a and so I can only imagine your actual situation, but I hug you and encourage you to try SMP to cover your scars.

    Due to miniaturization in donor area I think it could be DUPA. For how long have your result lasted?

    I heard that the phase III trial will begin in Q4 2020 Or Q1 2021, it was delayed due to COVID spreading

    I'm scared of losing results passing from a twice a day application to one

    According to dr Vikram Jayaprakash and dr Russel Knudsen, who was in the 80s in the group of doctors that made the first studies on the molecule, studies which established that therapy should be twice a day, new research suggested that Minoxidil can be used once a day, both in liquid and foam form, because it has an 18 hour half-life and using it twice a day doesn't bring any significant outcome. What do you think?

    Hello @hairlossPA, are you still shedding?
  13. Struggle
    I'm in a not so bad situation because I still have a lot of hair and I need a single transplant, but I'd like to have a plan B in case I have to stop Finasteride/Transplant go wrong for any reason

    @Kruchie thank you for your feedback. I'm sorry you had a terrible experience. Did you try several hair systems?

    Are there recent updates of the forum oldest hair trasplant? I'd like to see how an hair trasplant age over time, I think that seeing how they get old can be useful to make the decision to get surgery

    Thank you very much for the articulated question. I had blood work done before I interrupted finasteride, T was in the high range of normality and prolactine was fine. A physician visited me and said I had nothing, even if for precaution he suggested me to make a pause. My chest is fine, as my areola, totally flat, I noticed only these nipples go erect more often, so that they would be visible under my tshirt. No itching, tenderness or other things. I had balls ache some months ago and so I began to be suspicius regarding side effects. I took some photos when it happened, I could attach them here.

    In the last times I see my nipples - only the nipples, no their halo - get erect often. I do not notice any nodule or other things. Is it normal or I have to worry? I have been taking finasteride since two years, I'm currently making a pause up to 3 weeks
  18. Struggle
    I think you should check an urologist. It's a common side effect, especially at the start, however it could be due to other causes

    How long have you been taking finasteride? It's common in the first month

    It was in a 2013 morning, I stayed awake all the night to study for a school classwork, then, while I was dressing to go to school I looked in the mirror and I noticed that my temples were receding. I was 17. However, hair loss didn't really bothered me much at the time until when I was 20 a girl I liked said that receding hairline and baldness were a deal breaker for her.

    Up to 1 month it should be safe

    @Mathew Washington and @grincher excuse me I have another question: what about sweat? Can it be a problem? Can you excercise at the gym, go running and do other activities that make sweating with an hair system? Thank you very much
  23. Struggle
    Very promising!
  24. Struggle
    Absolutely not.
  25. Struggle
    I always hope these claims are true, but the reality is that everyday there is an article promising an imminent cure for baldness and it never comes.
