Regardless of the definition of TRT - an increase in your personal levels of testosterone compared to your currently lower levels, has the potential to heighten the risk of hair loss. It will likely come down to; 1) your follicles sensitivity to testosterone as an androgen and 2) how much of the additional testosterone will convert to DHT; For example if you have a current test level of 400 - and propecia is currently blocking a 70% conversion of this to DHT, assuming propecia maintains its 70% block rate, and via TRT your T levels are upped to 800 - all variables stay the same eg. the excess T that remains free, aromatises and 5ar reduces at the same ratio - the remaining 30% of DHT will still be a higher value than what it was before. Could wreak havoc - could not. Depends on your sensitivity. As Melvin says - perhaps upping your regime to dutasteride may be of consideration between your and your dr, to increase the percentage inhibition factor - however you still have the potential issue of testosterone to address. This is where some people’s desire for utilising topical anti androgens comes into play. None of this is medical advice.

2.5 mg Dutasteride
Curious25 replied to Recession1's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
That’s a heavy dosage ! But yes, you are correct - the studies point towards a correlation between the highest efficacy shown from the patients taking the higher end dosages. -
OM or Minoxidil Fluid Retention?

The Nike tick was so ingrained on my ankle last night that my gf thought I had a tattoo. Stopping this poison immediately. -
Finasteride is predominately used to maintain the remaining hairs on your head that are susceptible to DHT miniaturisation (by saying maintain, it refers to dramatically slowing down the balding process). So simply put - it becomes more so of a necessity to those with larger amounts of remaining hairs that are prone to miniaturisation via DHT, in which a Dr can check for early signs of miniaturisation during a trichoscopic examination. Some people face miniaturisation of the traditional donor area, therefore if they opt for the hair transplant route, it would be highly advisable for them to consider medication, otherwise their transplanted follicles will eventually start to thin out and miniaturise away. Others may witness their balding halt at a NW5 grade, in which a successful transplant should be able to gain full coverage with donor hair that is unaffected by DHT. There is no exact way of knowing - so it’s important to consider family history, and go for regular check ups with a reputable hair loss Dr to continually check for signs of miniaturisation.

Bought My Dutasteride
Curious25 replied to Rossybop's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
- Potentially. Which will be a good indicator that you’re responding better to dutasteride compared to finasteride. - No. You should set the benchmark low and hope for maintenance (drastic slowing of hairloss) and let anything additional be a bonus. A higher dosage frequency will lead to a higher likelihood of benefits. -Using 0.5mg daily is optimum - especially if you are aiming for regrowth. You could taper yourself onto that dosage - however if you’re going from 1mg daily fin with no sides - swapping that to 0.5mg daily dut, you should be ok. -
Confused after consultation
Curious25 replied to sila's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
If by full density you mean, native density (the same fu per cm2 as non balding areas of your scalp) - then yes, the Dr is correct by saying this is not feasible because 1) the low end average of native density is around 70FU per cm2 and most Dr’s cite this as being impossible to implant in one sitting - I have only ever saw one particular Dr who claims to transplant at this density in one pass during the last 15 years. 2) That level of density is not actually required to provide you with a full looking head of hair. 3) You would probably utilise all, if not more, of your available grafts from your donor zone if you were to pursue with this plan. If the Dr is referring to not being able to get you to a point of looking like you have a full head of hair in the front after 1 pass, then he could be correct, however others might feel differently. You really need to go for in person consultations to get the most accurate assessments on your situation - uploaded photos are more times than not heavily deceiving of the reality of the situation. -
Temples are appearing a lot more closed than what we are used to seeing in his recent pictures with the Prince. Bit of a strange temple closure - which makes me ponder whether it’s just a hair taken from his hairline brushed across to hide the recession. But I am leaning towards it likely being a surgery from around 4 months ago.

After a hair physically exits , I believe the usual time frame for it to ‘sprout’ again, is 3 months. When it becomes visible depends on the length of your hair, and the strength of that individual follicle - if it was severely miniaturised, chances are it will take a few shedding cycles for it to regain any sort of substance to make an impact visually.
