Hi,
I'm a 26 yr old male from India looking for some advice on whether or not to think about HT right away.
I started experiencing hairloss for the first time about 4 years ago, but I didn't bother about it much back then because the hair loss appeared to subside after some time.
Then about a year ago, I observed that I had started losing some hairs... permanently!
This was like a shock for me because my father is not bald. He has full, normal hair even today and hence I never thought that I'd be affected by balding one day.
So I consulted a local dermatologist after wasting a couple of months on homeopathy and finding it ineffective... and I've been on finastride and minoxidil for about 9 months now.
I've been able to regrow some of the lost hairs but the density of hair has reduced greatly... mainly in the frontal area behind the hairline.
I'm looking for advice on whether to go for HT now and increase the hair density, or wait for a couple of years more.
Like I said, I never thought I'd start going bald one day.
My mom's brother is bald, one of my dad's brothers, he's really bald (NW7 I guess)... but since my dad isn't bald I never for even one second thought this would happen.
I'm attaching a couple of pics.
Thanks.
