Come on men get real. It??s the self confidence that makes women go crazy, charm, good sense of humor and manly look(shave your head ). Women are naturally insecure(see how all of them will react if you make a harmless joke about their figure for example) so they are attracted to someone that is full of self confidence and being sure in himself. If you are miserable about your looks you send a negative vibe and they can sense that so you will be blown off in the start. Go to the gym, shave your heads, and get yourself a lady. Remember what Harry Callahan said: "Excuses are like assholes everybody has one".

It?‚??s unbelievable how many frauds are out there... Some clinics are recommending even HT with other body hairs... I bet there is some poor guy out there with pubic hair on his head... :flop:

My father lost his hair when he was 50(not completely). My grandfather(mother?‚??s side) had, a hair type like mine and he died with a thick full head of hair, my grandfather(father?‚??s side) lost his hair partially in his 60?‚??(he was a WW2 vet). I am 24 and loosing hair fast, I was a different person just one year ago and next year I?‚??ll be probably NW 5A or 6, at the other hand all of my relatives are average height, I am almost 6.5 ft... Talk about genetics...

I?‚??ve heard about some method of HT without leaving scars called GHO-FUE... A clinic in Prague is doing it, has anyone had this kind ok HT??? http://www.ghoclinicpraha.cz/hair-loss/

Is it possible to transplant hair follicles from other parts of the body??? like chest, back(for the ones that grow hair at their back) or even pubic(I think we all have extra down there )??? If it is possible is the hair going to be normal??? or someone would grow pubic hairs on their head...:flop: I?‚??ve heard somewhere that follicle can adopt a new place, adjust itself to a new place and grow a normal head hair... Is that true???

Well I hope that this drug combo will help but I know that it?‚??s not a permanent solution, just buying time and I am not too happy about that. But after I?‚??ve read an article about hair cloning and drug coming out in 2009/10 that gave me great hope of getting my hair back. Only issue that bothers me now, how much it will cost(if it comes out at said time)???

As far as I know only two famous professional sportists had their thyroid removed, I don?‚??t know why, too hard training??? ... Janica Kostelic and Blanka Vlasic... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Janica_Kostelic http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blanka_Vlasic That is interesting. My sister had her Thyroid removed and my mom didn't but is on Synthroid since I can remember. My Croat side is my mom's side. From which part of Croatia is your mother?‚??s origin??? Dalmatia, Istria, Slavonia, Zagorje, Kvarner bay, Lika(Dinaric area)??? Have you ever been to Croatia? I have to ask my Grandmother, she is 100% Croat. I know her grandparents were royalty than left the country before the start on WW 1 to escape having their sons fight the war. I'll get the history in a couple of days. WW1 was a really bad war, many people got killed in trenches all over Europe but the greatest loss of people was just after the Great war in 1918. from Spanish influenza. In the village where my great grandmother lived almost everybody died but old people after men came back from the war carrying the fatal flu.

Heh... Not at the moment, I am waiting for the cure like the rest of the mortals. Maybe one day I choose HT. When did you started loosing hair???

No one in my family had problems with thyroid... I train physically very hard every day for the past 6 years, and I had tough exams when I did those tests, I was extremely nervous so maybe it affected my thyroid... My detailed thyroid test result: TSH - 6.94 mIJ/L(normal: 0.3-5.0) FT4 - 17.05 pmol/L(normal: 10.0-25.0) FT3 - 5.1 pmol/L(normal: 2.2-6.8) I also had trichogramma test here are results... Anagen: 21% Catagen: 55% Telogen: Early stage: 10% Late stage: 14%

I went to my doctor, he ordered a blood test to determine if my thyroid gland is working properly, and it came out that TSH hormone is higher 0.4??“4.5mU/L is normal(mine is 6.94)... Can this cause hairloss???? Other hormones were fine...

Thank you mr. Dewayne for sharing some of your life XP... So the best age for hair transplant would be around 30???

I thought so, some doctors aren?‚??t taking you serious until it?‚??s life threatening situation... Not to mention cosmetics, if it isn?‚??t seborrhea or something, "don?‚??t worry you look fine"...

It?‚??s there for about 2 years, it has always been hard on the touch... The color of the lump it the same as the skin... It is very small, my general practice doctor told me not to worry but I am confused now because lipomas should be soft not hard, maybe I need some specialist opinion???

Thanks, Doctor Carman... I didn?‚??t know that finasteride works positive on prostate tumors, that?‚??s a great plus for taking finasteride... I?‚??ve got one more question... I felt a small lump on the top of my head, I have it for a longer period of time, I believe it is a fatty tissue or something, it doesn?‚??t hurt, it is hard on the touch... I am not obese, I am an active sportsman, I don?‚??t smoke, I don?‚??t drink alcohol and I eat healthy... Can this lump be removed??? Thank you...

I am doing a little experiment on myself with green tea extract, zinc, brewer's yeast and egg yolk, the hair has stopped falling out...

Well man looks younger with hair, that?‚??s the fact, but if you keep exercising, running a healthy life you can still look excellent and badass without hair and look young :top:... Celebrities are in worse position, every change they do or get and it?‚??s in the newspapers all across the world next day, they can?‚??t hide anything... Some look really good bald, look at Vin Diesel or Woody Harrleson...

I?‚??ll take finasteride and minoxidil combo and see if it will stabilize(keeping my fingers crossed) some iron and green tea supplements should be able to lower that DHT bastard I hope ... What Minoxidil is good to use 2% or 5%???

Well I haven?‚??t noticed that he wore a toupee, on the other picture his hair looks natural... Maybe I took a wrong example, here are many others... Kevin Costner... http://www.makemeheal.com/news/images/kevin-costner-plastic-surgery.jpg Mel Gibson... http://img.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2006/07/melgRX200706_600x431.jpg Johnny Depp, Tom Hanks, Sir Elton John, John Travolta, Silvester Stallone??? http://celebrities.ninemsn.com.au/img/article/article_johnhair.jpg http://www.makemeheal.com/news/images/tom-hanks-hair-restoration.jpg

When it?‚??s a right age to transplant hair??? I am 24 now, my condition can be seen on the photos I posted at the beginning of the topic...

It doesn?‚??t choose who it?‚??s gonna strike ... Look at Billy Zane for example...I?‚??ve would?‚??ve placed a bet that he is never gonna be bald... I?‚??ve heard that Ben Affleck is having hair loss problems too... http://members.aol.com/lukekduke/billy2.jpg http://imagecache2.allposters.com/IMAGES/MMPH/250481.jpg http://www.exposay.com/celebrity-photos/billy-zane-12th...-arrivals-1Boco5.jpg http://www.brisbanetimes.com.au/ffximage/zanebrook_narrowweb__300x352,4.jpg

I?‚??ve calculated a lot about that... Finasteride dutasteride, minoxidil etc. and I am wondering about the longterm using side effects, some people said that finasteride affected their potency??? some said that it can cause cancer... I came here to hear what can users who use those products for a long time tell about side effects if they had any etc... The only way to save hair 100% is castration but that?‚??s extreme and pointless... Only thing that comforts me is gene therapy that looks promising, but I bet there is going to be years and years when it comes to practice, if I were in the USA I?‚??ve would have volunteered to those hair tests... http://science.howstuffworks.com/baldness-gene.htm

Hello, I am a new guy here... I am 24 years old and I am from Croatia, Europe... I?‚??ve found this site and lots of useful info. and advices...:top: Almost a year passed since I had thick hair and then it all went downhill few months ago, my hair started falling out and now I?‚??ve got really rare hair on my scalp... My grandfather(on my mothers side) had hair like Elvis all of his life, thick black hair, my other grandfather was bald but in his late sixties, my father lost a little hair in his fifties and I am losing my hair in early 20 really fast and progressive... I go to the gym 3-4 times a week, I am not using any supplements(protein shakes, creatine powders etc. nor steroids or something like that) but I am concerned if I caught any fungus infection in the showers or my hair fell off because I washed it too often, or it is just genetics... Here is mine scalp and hair(what?‚??s left of it)...
