Regular Member Readytodoit Posted September 28, 2013 Author Regular Member Share Posted September 28, 2013 Thanks Johnj. I get my Finasteride from Dr Singh at ukfinasteride.info costs about ?200 for a years supply. The pill comes in 5mg but you have to split it, supposed to take 1mg per day but it's too hard to split into five so I just split into four. There are some reported side effects that seem to relate to sexual matters but if can be different from person to person. I know what you mean about wanting more/better hair. I'd love to be one of those people who don't worry about losing their hair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Readytodoit Posted September 28, 2013 Author Regular Member Share Posted September 28, 2013 I wish I'd known someone as well, it would have been much easier if I could have seen it and asked them about it. Try not to let other people put you off, I know that I worried about that but straight after getting it done it felt like a big weight off my shoulders. Most people at my work don't know that I'm getting it done and I've never had a shaved had before so they will notice, but the way I feel now I don't think I care what they think, it's about how we feel about ourselves. If you want to see the results close up I'm more than happy to show you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Readytodoit Posted September 28, 2013 Author Regular Member Share Posted September 28, 2013 Yeah, he did it all by hand. Took a long time over the two days but hopefully all be worth it in a few months. I know exactly how you feel about going out. It was really affecting my life to the point that I wouldn't even go out in the wind because it would mess it up. It would also feel ok some days and then feel absolutely rubbish the next. I think a lot of it is psychological as well because you think that everybody is looking at it. It can get on top of you really quickly. People with lots of hair don't understand how it can hit you. Also some people can say things that they think are funny and don't realise the massive impact it has on you. One throw away statement from them but a whole night of analysing for us. Keep your chin up, and remember that we are here to support each other. I'll hit the hay now and try not to scratch my head ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Readytodoit Posted September 29, 2013 Author Regular Member Share Posted September 29, 2013 Hi KO. I'll try to find some pre-op pictures of my own but I don't think I have any that are good quality. I'll ask Mick from the clinic if he can put some up because they took pictures just before the op.

Regular Member Readytodoit Posted September 29, 2013 Author Regular Member Share Posted September 29, 2013 The only post op regimen I am employing is saline spray every hour and a half along with my Finasteride. I usually take saw palmetto complex but I stopped this and my multi vitamins before the op on advice from the clinic. Not sure when I can start taking them again but don't see why I can't just start again now. Also washing it with the shampoo provided twice every day from today all over my head, not just the donor area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member JohnnyDrama Posted September 29, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted September 29, 2013 Ya sounds similar to my post op. I was taking Finasteride before, during and after my op so I can't see why you shouldn't go back on Saw Palmetto now. I definitely think it's a good idea to get on a DHT blocker soon after the ht. 2,200 FUE + PRP with Dr Bisanga - BHR Clinic, 22-23 August 2013 - http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/171950-my-fue-2-200-prp-dr-bisanga-bhr-clinic.html Current Regimen: - Rogaine 5% Foam 2x daily - Jasons Restorative Biotin Shampoo 2x daily / Nizoral 2% 2x weekly - Nettle Root 500mg, MSM 1500mg, Biotin 5mg, Multi Vit, Omega 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
