  1. I am scheduled to get my transplant at Dr. Bicers clinic on August 21. They asked me to send $500 to initiate the booking which I did, but it went to Dr. Bicer and not the clinic. Is that how it works? The bank was like these normally go to a clinic and not a person so I was seeking some confirmation here from Dr. Bicer’s patients. Also, they asked me to send a passport copy, Is that normal too?

  3. Hello, i am unable to decide between the two topical treatments. Seems strut offers em both. Do we have anybody here that has tried either successfully. I need just confirmations from people using topical treatments.
  4. Well this oil was some kind of a Mielle with saw palmetto and other stuff, and I never thought I d get the sides but I did - completely pleasureless orgasms. Well i gave it up cold turkey and lord behold it fixed itself. I am a primary care physician, and now run a small health care consultancy. I feel Finestride is a hit n miss with the sides, and there isnt an algorithm to deduce your risk. I am not completely a risk averse person but seems there are ore than few with sides and thats not acceptable to me so I am going to refrain. However; it may be completely fine for the others or most. I have a never treated a hair loss patient so I dont have anecdotal evidence for any of this., but I did see BPH patients and the risk of sides is acceptable for a pathological reason...not for cosmetic. Just a mild DHT block caused me sexual sides and so Finestride may too. Its the same mechanism. Thats it. I am not questioning its efficacy, obviously it works for so many physicians are prescribing it. I just feel some may be susceptible to sides, and the possibility is pretty real. So if someone wants to take that chance for just cosmetic reasons, then more power to them. I have my appointment settled with HnW for December 6, so that would be nice, and in the meanwhile I will research this inside out to see if there is any other mechanism that may prevent further hair loss.
  5. Thanks very much for ur advise gentlemen! Much appreciated. I am decided to not go the finestride route, i had muted orgasms from a dht blocking hair oil and it was extremely scary! I recovered thankfully after stopping. Is there anything else i can do- PRP, exosomes, theres a dr prasad somewhere who does exosomes!
  6. Hello guys, newbie here and wanted to share my hair issues. 47 years old, physician, live in WI. had a full head of hair till early 40's and the hair loss has been progressive for the last 4 years. I use a biotin shampoo and hair oil but havent tried any medication. Totally changed my look to the extent where I am not me anymore. hairline receded and diffuse thinning / miniaturization on mid scalp and crown. Scalp visible. I have narrowed it down and consulted with Drs Bloxham, Hasson and Wong, and Dr. Diep. H&W suggested a 4000 plus graft, Dr. Diep 5000 - 6000, but Dr Bloxham argued that I should do just 2600 in one go or I increase the risk of shock loss. I know I am ready for a transplant and wanted to get your expertise to to decide between these 3 docs. Your help is really appreciated.
