I have thought about starting propecia, but I'm a bit reluctant after reading many horrible shedding experiences. Have started shedding recently and to possibly further the progress seems like self mutilation at this point. It is Saturday night, I'm home researching about my hair instead of having the will power to go out and enjoy myself. I need something to be a sure shot strategy, need it to be gauranteed in filling in my frontal hairline, not something that may or may not work. I can not bare with waiting on a drug, Propecia, for another 9 months, to see if the possibility of succes is there. My carrer, social well being, and self esteem have been overly effected to the point that I feel I'll need depression medication if this persists even the slightest bit further.
I am set on getting a HT... after the HT I plan on continuing Rogaine and adding Propecia.
What other docs should I consider?...the reason for FUE is because I use to cut my hair short on the sides...like a police officer cut if you know what I mean(blade nummber 1 -0). Having the hair shorter on sides and and back give the illusion of thicker hair on top. So having a high profile scar in the back of my head would reverse the possiblities of creating this illusion. Therefore FUE seems like the safest choice. However, I have not completely ruled out strip surgery.
