  1. Thanks for the very detailed answer Dr. Beehner

     

    I have been taking Propecia/Proscar for many years. For about the first 5 to 6, I had great results. Then it seemed to lose its effectiveness. The last 2 years have been a real downer. I don't even feel like I am a transplant candidate because of the continual loss going on.

    What are the options for a guy in my situation?

    Avodart really hasn't proved to be that much more effectiuve than propecia.

    But it seems to have very mixed results.

    Such reports include massive sheds, front hairlines going in a few months, major sexual problems,.....

    Recently a study showed that sperm counts were massively reduced long term for a fet test patients.

    I can post some stats if you would like.

  3. Pat,

     

    Your post really hits home when you think about the big picture.

    We as men whine because our scalps are getting larger. We worry about not getting chicks, future jobs,.......because of it.

     

    But then you see the photos of little kids you have posted, and you have to begin to wonder how really traumatic is must be for a child to have to endure the stares, laughs and ridicule of something so disfiguring.

     

    Maybe a hirloss actually isn't the worst thing in the world.

     

    Thanks for the reality check.

    I will send your link off to my friends.

    I am sorry you feel like I am mocking you. I am not.

    I am merely stating a fact that on many occasions you have came across (in my opinion) in an almost bullying manner only to follow up with an apology.

    I was only making a point to Fuzzy that this is what is to be expected from time to time on this forum. Since he is a newbie.

     

    I have no problem with you and I do enjoy reading this forum from time to time.

  5. Honestly HLH appears to be the most genuine of the hair loss sites. People can post about products, just about any doctor, shit talk a bit and so on. I even find myself laughing quite a bit on that site which is a nice distraction from the balding process.

     

    Hair Loss Talk seems to be more of a site for realy young guys at the first stage of panic.

    Not alot of meat on the site.

     

    This site seems to be a bit too guarded which in my opinion keeps many away. Really dry with little humor.

    Not being able to really talk about certain products and doctors seems counter productive in my opinion. I do appreicate the photo history Pat has put togeter on this site though.

    Now watch me get banned for my honesty. lol

  6. I felt very uncomfortable during my consult with Dr. Zeiring.

    His salesman did most of the consult and Dr. Zeiring came in and spent about 5 minutes with me. He seemed very fake and the salesman seemed very pushy.

    They were trying to steer me into a supposed cancellation slot about 2 weeks out.

    If you want to stay close to home try Dr. Alexander in Phoenix. It's a short cheap plane ride from LAX and a much better doctor in my opinion.
