why always me ?

Hello

My mpb is leading me to depression .

I have so many problems .

It started to thin when I was 14yrs old .when I joined college acne got on me

I was suffering from acne for about 6yrs .it was worse when I had both serious cystic acne and mpb together .I never socialised with ppl, rarely attended family functions .no girlfriend.now that I have treated acne ,this mpb is leading me to depression. I'm on narwood 3a and have started using propecia and minox along with nizoral shampoo .I'm just hoping to arrest further hair loss and go for ht asap .

 

Is anyone in th same situation as me .

how old are you?

Ok....that's a bit young for a transplant because we don't know exactly where you are headed as far as hairloss down the road. I would stay on the meds, maybe get a consult, and just keep an eye on things. Have you tried using a Nanogen type concealer? It works pretty well in most cases.

I have tried concealers but I have reciding hairline and it doesnt help much ,just covers the thinning areas on top of my head .

Hey man ,

 

I started to bald when i was a young age too . Im still only 26. .. and I unfortunately I rushed into a transplant by a hack job doctor who completely screwed me over, now im just playing catch up and comb overs to try and hide the bad plugs and scars he made. Im currently on finasteride and minoxidil aswell as nizoral and with those three my hair loss has slowed down if not stopped completely . Hang in there buddy the future is looking promising for us people losing their hair . Stick to those 3 , take a picture today and a picture in 6 months . See how things are progressing , this might make you a bit more optimistic . .. Just be patient .

all the best

I started to bald when I was extremely young too. However, I am quite a bit more advanced than you at the age of 24. I wouldn't say that you're too young to have a hair transplant despite all of the naysayers. Just realize that you may be forced to have one later down the road. If that doesn't bother you, and you are willing to pay for a quality doctor, go for it. I just underwent my first hair transplant last week, and as of now, I have no regrets. I chose a world-renowned physician Dr. Paul Shapiro and am anxiously awaiting my results.

 

As far as image effecting my life. I am similar to you; hair loss for me was leading my down a road of depression and I was willing to pay thousands of dollars to buy me 7-10 years of youth before I actaully am the age that I look.

 

Now, I just gotta zap off that body hair... :-/

Nick : congratulations on ur ht

I have started using big 3 and I'm planning to wait for one more yr hoping that my hair loss will stabilise .

I can afford to undergo one more ht in future if my first ht can give me peace of mind for a period of 7-10yrs and not like immediate 2-3yrs .

Baldboy7,I was in the same situation as you.I suffered with cycstic acne at the age of 18.In those days Roactanne had just hit the market so I rushed in and had a 6 month coarse of this medication.BIg mistake!Roactane dries all the oil up on your face and scalp.so by fixing my acne I made my hairloss accelerate so fast.dont use this medication for acne it will wreck your hair big time.

[baldboy7]

Yes .exactly the same thing happened with me .I was on accutane for 3 months and this was the worst time when I went from narwood 2-3 .
