Really appreciate your input. I was on minoxidil for almost a year and switched to rogaine foam about 5 months ago. Maybe it has slowed down the recession at d sides towards the back as they don't seen to have moved much but the front is certainly receding back towards meeting where the sides are. Now i just need to grow a pair and book my date :-D

Thanks thehairupthere I am planning an FUE session of about 1000 to the hairline!! As I am fair skinned m hoping to keep my hair behind the hairline long enough to be able to conceal after 2wks, but definitely over the holiday!!! It's so frustrating thinking of what to do as if I don't gt the ht then il be shaving it bald anyway :-\ but the thoughts of looking odd with the growing hairs and pinkness is putting me off the ht!! I'm 25 and have been receding since I was 19. It started at sides but now also receding at the front middle of the hairline. I look very similar to my dad and have same shaped head so I assume il follow his baldness. He is probably a 6/7 wit small amount of coverage on top!! I am on rogaine foam 5% but it doesn't seem to working. I am not going to try fin as I'm afraid of the sides, taking that chance is not worth it to me!! I am going conservative and know that if I follow my dad I will need at least another 1or 2 hts

Hey all, Got a list of dates from Dr feriduni, was initially hopin to go in october but he's all booked for that month. I'm now lookin at last week in November as it will suit me taking 2weeks off work!! That would be about 4 wks prior to Xmas ant I'm wondering would I have healed and my buzzed hair have grown back enough to conceal the ht for the Xmas period?? I wear my hair on back and side at 10mm(grade3) and on top at 25mm(grade 8). His secretary said that recipient area buzzed to grade 3 would look fine after 2-3 weeks!! Would her idea of grade 3 be the same as mine?? If so I would shave grade 3 around the hairline and leave it at a grade 5 or 6 behind it if it was possible. That way with 4 weeks growth it would grow almost 1cm and help cover it up!! I will b out of work for 2 weeks and try to avoid the girlfriend for that period too :-\ its bad I know but I don't think I can say it to her!! She is away in college then so we will only see each oyjer at weekends!! will have sum excuse those weekends that I'm visiting friends??!! Anyway can I have your opinions on this and am I being realistic?? Thanks

Love this thread, I have always been wondering this myself!! I would really like to see some results tho as the idea of chasing my hairloss all the way back is scaring me!!! I have been researching for the last 3-4 years now and had a consult with Feriduni in Belgium 18 months ago. I think its almost time to either go for HT or not. Thinking of taking 2 weeks off work in October and getting it done but having to hide it from co workers and my girlfriend is gonna be difficult!! Just last week she was joking with me how Im gonna look like my dad as she has noticed my receeding hairline. It still worries me that if the time comes and I have to shave it all off if she'd still fancy me :-\ I suppose take her word for it but i think most balding guys have this issue? Even so for myself I would love to have a decent hairline. On that note, Feriduni requires all his patients shave the receipient area. I'm worried about having the shaved head for 2 months until my native hair grows out to cover my receeding hair line so I was wondering if anyone has shave the donor aread on the sides and back, and then if the receipient area is in the hairline, just shave about 1cm back along the hairline so hair behind it can grow down over it, covering the transplants???

Hi, can anyone give me information on this brand of proscar, Chibret 5mg I received from Quality Health Inc? What are your experiences with the brand? Is it legit and good to use?

Hey guys, I ordered 5mg proscar from Quality Health Inc and received it this week. The brand on the box is Chibret Proscar. Can anyone give me any reviews on this and is it legit?

Hi guys, I am coming closer and closer to deciding to take the plunge and have a FUE HT with Dr. Feriduni in Belgium. My main worry which I assume many of you also have the same opinion, is the healing process and returning to work. I was wondering what grade on a razor does the donor and recipient need to be shaved to?? I am reluctant to shave the whole head to I am hoping that I can shave the sides and back of my head to the lowest required level, and also around the hairline where I plan the transplant. In doing this, is it possible to shave back a very small amount along the hairline rather than the whole frontal third? As in to follow the razor just along the edge of the hairline to just shave back less than a centimeter? The rest of my hair then I would just trim short enough to keep some sort of style and that after 2 weeks there will be some bit of growth to help cover some of the receipient area.

thanks for the replies guys. making my first order as we speak

Hi guys. has anybody ordered minoxidil from this website. What are your opinions on it and the product?? i am thinking of ordering from here.

hey, i got a contact email on his website and his secretary got bak to me pretty quick. i went to belgium for a face to face consult also in december and was really impressed. i have had trouble trying to get proscar here in ireland so havin started any medication yet. looking to get minoxidil even but i dont want packages coming in the door labelled with minoxidil or hair loss written on it so i havent ordered online yet

Hi guys, Big question,, how do websites package their deliveries such as minoxidil? I would not like to have my housemates see what I have ordered such as a supply of minoxidil or hair loss written on the packaging. Also would a 3month supply be small enough to fit into a letter box also?? Really appreciate some info.

Hi spex thanks for your opinion. Ive seen your results and they are very impressive. Just another question but it seems very important. I would hope to begin playing and training about 3-4 weeks after the HT. But as it is the summer my head would be exposed to the sun for periods of an hour to 2 hours when playing/training. Even if I wore the head gear there are gaps in it that the sun could get through. Is a HT for active people out of the question for the summer months? Also I was hoping to go on a sun holiday in august, this would be a little over 2 months after when I hope to have a HT. this would mean drinking and being out in the sun for very long periods too. Any opinions? Thanks again for your replies. I am stil trying to get on proscar as the pharmacies I tried here in Ireland are quoting me ridiculous prices and QHI wont accept my visa card

thanks youngsuccess and Dr Glenn. really appreciate your feedback. I have a window of 2-3 weeks where i may miss no games. it would mean I would probably have a game on the 3rd week. if i go ahead with the HT hopefully I could get lucky and get to the 4th week without playing. I would appreciate more info from anuone else that reads this discussion. Cheers

I see a few forums about sport and exercise after HT but they seem to be mainly people talking about strip. My question is does anyone know how long you should wait before doing full contact sport after FUE? In the sport I play it is a requirement to wear a protective helmet and it is very physical. Games are weekly come the summer and thats when i am thinkin of gettin a HT. I dont want to miss too many games. Anyone got an opinion?

Guys Ive just been dealt a blow in my fight against hairloss. I got a prescription for propecia almost a month ago from a foreign doc whom im interested in having my procedure done. Finally got the courage to go into the pharmacy and ask for my prescription. I was quoted 240euros per month because it will need to be specially ordered as it is not commonly sold in ireland. any irish guys out their with this problem. where do i go now?
