Hair Transplant and TRT question?


Recommended Posts

  • Senior Member

Are there any of you guys or experts out there that have had a transplant and currently taking TRT (Testosterone)? Also are you on finasteride? Been battling hair loss a long time and thinking about taking the transplant plunge. However, I also think there is a strong chance I’ll want to be on TRT next 5 or 10 years.

More testosterone, more potential for conversion to DHT, which is by far the most destructive hormone to scalp follicles. Testosterone is also slightly damaging in and of itself to hair follicles over time, according to various research I've read over the years.

Basically, TRT is likely to accelerate your natural propensity for hair loss.

IMO, it would be wise to take Finasteride before jumping on TRT if MPB is a major concern.
