I would completely avoid Bosley. They have a terrible reputation, you can read about them on this forum.
Look for an independent clinic that does good work.
It depends. Some people get on medication and have a successful transplant then move on to other things in their life.
Then there's the guys who got a bad result and didn't want to share that to the world.
Sorry about your experience man. A lot of young guys are being sold dreams about getting their hair back and how easy it is. I hope your next hair transplant experience will be a good one.
I don't use Oral Minoxidil but for the water retention you can take a Taurine supplement for it.
There's also Dandelion Root but it's an actual diuretic and it might give you side effects if you use it too much.
1. Some hair doctors have their own topical finasteride or topical dutasteride solution that they prescribe. I'm not sure which doctors though.
2. There's also Morr-F which is a topical fin/min combo that you can buy online on eBay and other websites. @Dr. Suhail Khokhar uses it.
3. There's oral minoxidil (also known as Loniten) too like stated above. It has its own side effects so I would do research and see if it works out for you.
4. You can also use ketoconazole/nizoral shampoo three or four times a week. It helps inhibit DHT.
5. You can add a Vitamin D supplement too if you have a deficiency from the pandemic like a lot of people these days.
Research these doctors for BHT and look at positive and negative reviews. Good luck

Afro hair is trickier to work with because it can curl underneath the skin, making it difficult to extract. I would recommend going to an afro hair specialist like Dr. Bisanga or Dr. Lupanzula. Good luck.
Me: NW5 at 27.
My dad: NW6 at 60.
Grandfather (Dad's side): NW7 when he passed away.
Grandfather (Mother's side) is a NW5.
My uncles and cousins (both sides) either have a full head of hair, NW3/NW4, and two uncles went NW6.
Is this psoriasis/dermatitis? I've been dealing with this for some months now and it's frustrating me.
I went to a dermatologist and they said it's inflammation then gave me a prescription for Tretinoin and Clobetasol Propionate topical solution but I think it's treating it, not curing.
I'm not familiar with any doctors in the UAE but here are some from nearby countries. You can do research and look at patient reviews, both good and bad. Good luck.
