Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted June 9, 2022 Administrators Share Posted June 9, 2022 There’s been a lot of media outlets claiming Conor McGregor is on steroids, and his recent thinning crown is a by-product. What do you guys think? In my opinion, his crown is probably naturally thinning, he’s had hair loss since his late 20’s. I doubt he’s on medication. He tried to claim shampoo could stop hair loss. He needs to get on actual medication ASAP. I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network. I do not receive any compensation from any clinic. My comments are not medical advice.

Senior Member NARMAK Posted June 9, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted June 9, 2022 I'm pretty sure he's on medication if he got a hair transplant recently but if he was using some PEDs, this could have accelerated the hair loss. It's actually not as rare as people think to have thinning on the crown even with a frontal hairline that looks relatively normal. However Conor was receding before this in his 20s on the frontal hairline, so it's only natural the crown may have followed if he was prone to a Vertex pattern.

That’s the question is he on medication. It’s possible he’s not, and that’s a problem, but it could also be that he’s got too much exogenous DHT that even finasteride can’t stop balding. 1 I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network.

THE TRUTH Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 He's been losing hair on the crown for a very long time. You guys didn't notice it but he had this bald patch on the crown already during his match against Khabib. Go back to the footage showing the post match brawl following Khabib's victory. You can see in one video from the top that his crown was already thinning pretty bad. He's not on finasteride and his 1st hair transplant done last year is neither dense-looking nor 100% natural.... You can be a celebrity millionaire and still have bad hair transplants and poor approach to dealing with hairloss... Look at Lebron James, Rafael Nadal, Wayne Rooney, Joe Rogan....

Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted June 9, 2022 Author Administrators Share Posted June 9, 2022 This was the best angle I could find I don’t know, his hair is fine and blonde, with the lights shining, his hair being wet, I would expect it to look like this normally without thinning.

Senior Member MAIZE1694 Posted June 9, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted June 9, 2022 PED's or not, training like crazy WILL accelerate MPB if you're prone to it. Its happened/happening to me. A few years ago I went from casual 2-3 times a week to training every day and leaned out while getting a lot stronger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What complete rubbish lol, training has nothing to do with mpb, yes it may increase your test and hence DHT but people can have minimal DHT and still lose hair due to genetic predisposition and DHT sensitivity. Honestly your talking nonsense. Edited June 9, 2022 by sukh123 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote me where I said training causes MPB. You can't. I said if you're prone to MPB training and leaning out will definitely accelerate that. Quote people can have minimal DHT and still lose hair due to genetic predisposition and DHT sensitivity In your fantasy scenario a guy with minimal DHT who is losing hair, begins to train everyday and increases DHT = no additional effect on hairloss?

If you are blocking DHT, that's the main hair loss antagonist in androgenic alopecia but increased testosterone from working out is nowhere as destructive to hair follicles unless you are using PEDs to boost it through the roof and then some. Males can be more sensitive to hair loss though with an increase in even testosterone and those are usually the one's who still suffer increased hair loss under DHT blockers too.

You said "training like crazy will accelerate hair loss " it doesn't matter if you train once a week or every day, that has no impact on hair loss, which is exactly what you implied. And yes you can have 0.01 DHT levels but if you are very sensitive to the androgen due to genetic predisposition, it does not matter you will lose hair. Hence why a lot of people who have low t still lose hair and people with sky-high T and Dht who are not sensitive have a full head of hair in their 40's.

Taking FIN is a different story. Of course FIN will stop a lot of DHT conversion and slow down hairloss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's what I said Quote PED's or not, training like crazy WILL accelerate MPB if you're prone to it. No where did I say MPB causes or is solely determined by training. Use some nuance. Quote it doesn't matter if you train once a week or every day, that has no impact on hair loss, which is exactly what you implied. And yes you can have 0.01 DHT levels but if you are very sensitive to the androgen due to genetic predisposition, it does not matter you will lose hair. Hence why a lot of people who have low t still lose hair and people with sky-high T and Dht who are not sensitive have a full head of hair in their 40's. I'm not even sure what you're arguing against here. I never said having that simply high DHT means you'll lose hair. If you're prone to MPB, increasing DHT conversion will be detrimental to keeping your hair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
