Lots of great information here, thanks all.
I’m a bit stuck with timing and money so it’s a bit more of now or never for me with moving house and having one more child. Have been on meds for nearly a month and all good so far. The hair loss has been very slow and gradual over 10 years with not much loss over the last 12 months.
Realistic expectations is a good point, never going to have that straight teenage hairline again 😭
Certainly is a difficult life decision to make and one you never know until you do it.
