Happithymes Posted June 2, 2020 Share Posted June 2, 2020 (edited) I'm turning 25 in 2 months, and I pretty devestated about my hair which started going ar 18 or 19. One of my corner is thinning inward pretty badly despite me being on fin for almost two years. How bad is this? Probably will need a ht, though hopefully not too soo . Thank you. Attached image are most recent, longer hair is 3 months ago. Imgur is from last year. http://imgur.com/a/BtqHiGs Edited June 2, 2020 by Happithymes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member hairlossPA Posted June 2, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted June 2, 2020 It's not bad. a lot of people would be envious for your head of hair at the moment. You're doing the best you can do by taking fin. The rest is genetics. You can try minoxidil or dermarolling as well but finasteride is the heavy lifter to stabilize hair loss. Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happithymes Posted June 2, 2020 Author Share Posted June 2, 2020 Thanks for replying. I been microneedling but it doesnt seem to do anything, Min gave me a lot of itchiness and pimple so I discontinued it. Hopefully my hair doesnt spin out of control to a point where I cant save it with a ht. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted June 2, 2020 Administrators Share Posted June 2, 2020 It’s definitely not bad, but at 25 it can get worse fast. I had a similar amount of hair loss, and in 4 years I lost it all. Are you on fin and minoxidil? I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network. I do not receive any compensation from any clinic.

Yea, it was most aggressive in my mid 20’s. By 30 I was pretty much bald. I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network. I do not receive any compensation from any clinic.

Valued Contributor Gatsby Posted June 3, 2020 Valued Contributor Share Posted June 3, 2020 Happithymes from your pics I don't feel that your hair loss today is bad at all. In fact you have a head of hair that many would envy. I do though understand the fear of future loss from my own experience. Have you tried minoxidil? I have seen lots of great videos on people who stayed the course with minoxidil and not only gained more density but also grew back what they had lost in receding and patchy areas. It's definitely worth using now and sticking with it. All the best!

Keep in mind I didn’t take fin, so hopefully the fin holds it for much longer. The good news is I was able to restore a lot of my hair through surgery. I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network.

Happithymes Posted June 10, 2020 Author Share Posted June 10, 2020 One more question, if I were to apply min only to the thinning section, will other section of my scalp get affected by min as well. I know because hair become dependent on min, I'm worry that if i stop min not only will the section I applied with min fall out but also sections that has not has min applied. Is such thing possible? For example if i spray min on half of my scalp, when i stop will the other untreated half of the scalp fall out when with the treated half? Sorry didn't know how to word the question.
