@Berba11 I get your point and I like your confidence mate. I know what you mean and how you should just ignore it and live your life regardless. Yes I have actually buzzed it all off for 1 year ago just because it was a challenge with some friends. Even at that time the hair was kind of lost in temple areas and I didnt had anything to lose so I just went in for the challenge. After doing it;; the bald head was absolutely nothing for me. My head is quite round and I looked like an apple pear head. It was so ugly that I almost wanted to cry myself to sleep everday haha! Some people really fit a bald head, but thats absolutely nothing for me. Then my hair started to grow and the temple areas didnt of course. I was 22 years old at that point but when I looked myself in the mirror I looked like a 40 year old daddy with his lost temple area hairs. I didnt like it at all. It was horrible. What makes me emotional about this is that before 20s I loved my hair a lot. I was always styling it for school, everyday. I had big passion for my hair and style. If it was some other part then I would not really care. I am proud of my body and I like every part I am born with. But we humans are strange. Some are born short, some tall, some small/big 🍆, some big/small nose and we all find something to hate. I am thankful that mine was hair because there is actually a solution for this, which is hair transplant.. I can for sure start on some Fin or other medications. But will these help me in waking up the sleeping hair follicles and give some hair regrowth? I am very very sure my hair follicles in my temple areas are just "sleeping". I tried dermaroller for 3 months and some baby hair follicles showed again and some actually stayed and became strong. However it was no big results to brag about, because something stronger is needed to cause hair regrowth. What scares me with Fin is that every side effects I hear is erectile disfunction even AFTER stopping the medicaments. I read some horror stories people have had trouble and side effects for many years. This seriously scares me even though each body reacts different. I am thinking in my head is it worth it to make ONE problem MANY problems. I heard alot about PFS and so on. But man if I knew it would work and without side effects I would start without any doubts. I wish we could know such things. Then everyone would be on Fin..

@JohnAC71 Not been to a dermatologist and of course each of them will say their own views so its kind of pointless. I am very sure my hair will be like this for future hopefully and only temple areas. No one can know 100%.. The thing is I want a good hairline and hair on temple areas. If I use medications then yes it might keep some hair on my head, but if I stop then it all falls? So I dont see the point of a temporary joy where everything may change upside down if I quit medications.. Also, my hair loss on temple areas is the only insecurity. If I start on medications and start getting erectile dysfunction and other symptoms; then 1 problem became many problems. Would rather stick to 1 problem than making more insecurities and issues.

@Doron Harati Here is my donor area

@JohnAC71Its very difficult to say. My father had similar hair loss he said and it stopped somewhere where I am now. I know its very different from person to person. But what other options do I have if I decide to not go for these medications?

@Doron Harati are you from HDC clinic? So what solution do I have on table? Its not nice to have bad young years

@DrTBarghouthi Hi! I am on no medications because I have heard too much about side effects. What medication would you recommend and how would it help me? My family history is that my father has hair loss on temple areas. My uncles are mixed. Some have thick full hair and some have hair loss and are bald. This is sadly just a gamble of genes.. Either you got hair or no hair. For me the worst part is the front hairline. It kills my confidence alot.

@Melvin- Moderator What kind of medications? How will it help me, will it wake up the sleeping hair follicles and fill my head with some more thickness of hair? I am just scared of the side effects.

@JohnAC71 Hi John! Thanks for reaching back here for helping! Yes I wrote that Fin/Minoxidil is kind of scary if they have side effects like Erectile dysfunction and so on.. Its a kind of risky thing to do considering how your body may react and if it will be reversible?

@Berba11 Thanks a lot for a nice comment. I understand what you mean, but for me in general; having less hair on the top is a confidence killer. I get longer hair and cover my temple areas and in the mirror it looks fine. Then you go out and the wind blows in your face and your hair gets busty and suddenly all the temple areas shows up. Its a huge problem for me. There is not a single day that have went since my temple area hair loss where I havent had my insecurity and guard up to "protect" my confidence. Fin and minoxidil I have heard alot about, not sure if this will bring my hair back and I heard also alot about side effects. One of them was erectile dysfunction and thats a big scary NO from me I posted some images here.

Hello! I am a 23 year old man that strongly is looking for a hair transplant. My temple areas are gone and for one year now I have realised the hair receding is almost the same. Since a young age my front hairline was never good. I am tired of having bad confidence and I believe at my age I should enjoy my life and have confidence. In this young age it matters that I bring my confidence back. I hope you all understand. I have some knowledge about hair transplant and I know people say wait until you are 30 or over, but seriously if I lose all my young years with bad confidence, then it doesnt really matter if I have hair or not when I am above 30. I understand the risk is that I should do several hair transplants and I am aware of that and I will risk that. I am sure every one of you understand my point. Where can I find a good hair transplant clinic with a reasonable price. A clinic which has experience and can give a natural hairline. Yes I know about Turkey, but there are more clinics there than humans and you have to be aware. I have heard many horrible stories about treatments there. You have to really know the place you go to In and Out to be sure you are working with professionals. I hope you can help me out so we can check out whats the best options I have for a reasonable price. I hope for a price range between 1000-3000e. I have contacted many hair clinics that include everything, but its not that easy to just book a place and go for it and risk it without any confidence in their experience.

Hello! Would anyone recommend PRP treatment for hair growth and has any experience? I am currently having a receding hairline on my temple areas. I dont know how it will change. Anyways, I heard that a hair transplant right now in age of 22 years old is not recommended. But what about a PRP treatment which may slow down and cause some hair growth? I would like to hear from you and some before/after photos if you have done it or just a honest experience review if it is working.

@Melvin-Moderator @Egy I really appreciate both of you taking your time and deeper look into all of this with your views. I agree with both of you and respect both. I havent gone on any medics or such things because of side effects I am fearing. I looked for example at finasteride side effects: impotence, loss of interest in sex, trouble having an orgasm, abnormal ejaculation, swelling in your hands or feet, swelling or tenderness in your breasts, dizziness, weakness, This was from google. This fears me. I am a young man and cant have some of these side effects. Now honestly I dont know. All persons react different, but taking a risk to have trouble with your sexual life is totally not worth it in my eyes. It will go from 1 problem to 10. So yes it might save me from hair loss, but if I am to live with these side effects for over 20 years then I will just go bald. Dont understand me wrong. This is the reason I want hair transplant. To every day apply something on hair is also a headache. But I get it that you should be clear on when the hair stops losing so you can know when it is time for a hairtransplant. I understand that if I go now and lose even more hairs some years later, I will need another surgery.

@Egy Yes I was also thinking of waiting a little bit more to save myself from having several hair transplants.

@JohnAC71 Yes here are some more. Sorry for the messy hair, it looks more awful now because I havent got any haircut because of the COVID situation.. Anyways, I try to hide the temple areas by covering it. When I cover them, they dont look awfully bad, but still its not nice. The temple areas are worst yes.

@Melvin-Moderator Yes I understand. I am 23 years old. It has been 1 year since I have realised my receding hairline on temple areas. To be honest even at a young age my hairline was not perfect. It had thickess and strong hair, but temple area was weaker. I asked my father and he used to cut my hair at a young age. He said your hairline in front has never been very strong on temple area as he could remember. It is true because my left temple area was always better than the right side. Anyways it looks like Class 2-2.5. I dont know how it will change later, but for now I have good thickness other areas. Well its not so easy to be in a young age and have a receding hair line when you are around people who has got their perfect hairlines. It is really not easy. I am pretty sure we are all blessed with some good parts and some negative parts. Overall I am very happy mine is hair loss because it has actually a treatment rather than being short in height and so on. For 1 month now I have started to use derma roller on temple areas and shower my hair only with greek olive soap and I can see some difference. Less hair loss and some baby hairs are appearing on temple areas. I dont know if this is something that will significantly change my temple areas in some months. But overall YES, I am strongly looking for hair transplant I can trust for some good results and I understand I am young, but every year is a year. Kind of sucks to have some hair loss now in young age, wouldnt bother me if I was 30+
