Sorry for creating a new thread but I really need help with my shit.
Hair on my crown are thinning, hairline is kind of ok tho.
I need your advices on how to stop thinning and balding at any cost. Finasteride, healthy lifestyle, maybe some HRT stuff but I know nothing about it except my main enemy here is DHT.
BTW my father and grandfather are bald, but it is a lot about their stressful slav lifestyle and shitty ration, amirite?

anon, you'll be bald in less than 4 years. Sorry mate.

Start finasteride and minoxidil. Now. Balding like you are is a blessing, there is a good chance you will be able to thicken up your bald spot, and if your hairline is in good shape you are fine. Me on the other hand - I have virtually perfect density with a borderline Norwood 3 hairline. I am fucked.

I don't care about finasteride's side effects, but minoxidil is what scares me: I heard it has a strong withdrawal syndrome. I'm leaning to some lowkey HRT or fin

>>14963045
Yeah... Theres literally NOTHING to worry about with minox, other than the 'dandruff'(Which isnt even dandruff, its just the elements of the liquid that dont get absorbed into your scalp)
Minox works as an androgen. It just increases bloodflow to the area. Theres nothing really fucking with your hormones. You could get the same effect with lazer treatment, or dermarolling(infact you get better results with dermarolling, but if you over do it you can get a bunch of scar tissue, and it makes your scalp feel like crap for a couple days after)

All that said, Finn is by far the most practical and effective treatment.(HRT is fucking INSANE. Your risk with finn is some anecdotal limp dick worries that are hard to reproduce in proper trials. HRT will without question fuck your dick and sterility up.)

Hairloss is caused by elevated prolactin levels, not testosterone or dht.


Excess PUFA consumption is having a negative effect on male hormones causing them to have excess serotonin, prolactin, estrogen, cortisol, etc.

Real Causes of baldness:

>Chronically Elevated Cortisol Levels
>Chronically Elevated Estrogen Levels (there is a feedback loop between cortisol and estrogen where they both increase one another over time as well)
>Low Thyroid Function
>Liberation of Free Fatty Acids In The Blood, which stimulates Estrogen production
>Chronically Elevated Prolactin Levels
>Mucopolysaccharide accumulation in the scalp tissue (Matrix for Calcification)
>Drops in protective hormone levels like Progesterone, with the simultaneous increase in stress hormone levels like cortisol and estrogen (This ratio matters)

When it comes to hairloss your genetics determine how sensitive you are to certain hormones, not whether you are going to go bald or not.

Most people will leave it too late, and go with the comforting thought that it was completely out of their hands. When really all they had to do was cut certain things out of their diet, and make sure they were getting adequate amounts of essential micro nutrients.

Don't listen to this retarded tinfoilfaggot, he post this in every thread about hairloss.

The only things that work and are FDA-approved are finasteride/dutasteride, minoxidil and dermarolling.

Get started with these. I've been using all 3 for a couple years and had great effects for some time. Got my scalp fucked up by propylene glycol from the minox though and now I'm struggling with massive shedding and seb derm because my retarded dermatologist said there was nothing to worry about. If you notice prolonged itching or scaling, drop minox immediately.

Start fin on it's own, minox a year after if you're not satisfied with results.

Min is a pain to apply, toxic to cats and makes your hair greasy as fuck.
I developed a sudden reaction to it after 4 years usage and had to stop.

60% of the hair on my head shed and took about a year to regrow in a pretty acceptable state. I wish I just took fin and ignored minox.

Lol you have it the wrong way around. People that thin all over are diffuse thinners and those are the guys that end up totally bald on top with the hair on the sides and back. People who recede at the front don't tend to diffuse all over. Sure, both are noticeable but in the case of a hair transplant, someone who recedes is a much better candidate and it requires much less hairs. Diffuse thinners are not good candidates for a hair transplant due to the coverage required.
