How does /fit/ cope with it?

I'm on Finasteride right now, looking to go on Minoxidil in the immediate future.

Minoxidil. Also asking why I am so bald.
>> It's bad. :( Anonymous
I used Minox foam for two months, and it ate the shit out of my hairline, and it's getting worse.

My vertex is getting thinner and thinner, I'm going to have to eventually shave it all off.

My only hope is that the propecia I ordered and some other stuff will keep my head looking okay until hair multiplication hits the consumer market.

Even then I'll need a hair transplant to fix up the hairline.

females are not immune to baldness and seeing as how female baldness is less common you're going to stand out like a BITCH when it hits you

Except it won't hit me. Most of the men in my family aren't bald, much less the women.

I'm sorry that you'll never get your revenge for that hateful snarky comment I made that gave you so much butthurt.

This is called a shed.
Did you continue on Rogaine?

Eg; This happens because it turns all your hairs into their growth cycle at the same time (whereas your hair growth is usually staggered throughout your scalp), so all your hair that is shed naturally, is shed naturally all at once.

Hair multiplication doesn't work as well as they theorized, didn't you hear?

The next big thing is embryonic drug therapy on your scalp. Its shown really promising results.

Shit fucking sucks. :-(

I'm slowly losing my hair, but I'm not going on Minoxidil, because I really can't be arsed rubbing shit in my hair twice a day, knowing that if I stop, it'll all fall off.

I'm also not going on Finasteride, I'd like my hormonal levels just the way they are, thank you very much.

Laser is bogus (they put you on finasteride+minoxidil and then claim the results are from the laser)

I'll never do a strip transplant, I don't want a scar at the back of my head.

So, shit fucking sucks.

I'm waiting for a working hair multiplication operation, and I might do a Follicular Unit while waiting just to keep it in check.

Buff up you whiny bitches.
If your hair's gone, it's gone.

I didn't realize I was losing my hair until I let it grow back in after about a decade of shaving my head (since I was 14 or so). I shrugged and shaved it all off again.

Life goes on. Some people look good with no hair, you may as well. It's just hair... If it bothers you so much wear a hat.

Im in my 20's and losing my hair already. So what? See a pretty girl smile and be charming. Look around you. Bald dudes due okay. Nobody cares as much as you due. Think about that one.

If your really unconfterable with it. Dont waste you money on prouducts. They dont work. Look into tranlsplant ops. if you choose, but dude. Seriosly?
Buy a "Head Blade". There indorsed by a lot of mma fighters and you can find them online. Funny looking things with a wide blade that flexis to the contore of your head.
Now look on the bright side. Chicks might start rubbing your head for luck. Which one is up to you.

I worked with a woman in her 50s who was bald. Almost as bald as Patrick Stewart, or maybe even more. She had a combover. AND IT LOOKED LIKE ASS!

Women: If you go bald, do not do a fucking combover, just shave that shit off and be done with it.

i am 22 and my hair is so fucking thin. either it's because i have been eating unhealthily for the last 5 years since i started living alone away from my family, or it's genetic. I just shave my hair.

or...... you can take hormones, which will stop/revert the baldness and make you become a happy trap! ^__^

All of the side effects listed in Finasteride only occur with men that are like over 40. If you're young, theres like a 0% chance you'll get sexual side effects, or breasts.
You really need to get on Fin. I wish I'd gone on earlier, it slowed my hairloss to a crawl.

well shit, i'm 21 and i'm starting to lose mine. got a receding hair line started at about 19 and my hair has been thin since i was born - so shit sucks. i just keep it cut real short anyways: less hassle with it day-to-day and if it's that short, you never really notice. sure you can try all that bullcrap marketing junk that supposable works on like 20% of men or some shit, or you can man up, chop it off, bulk up and start kicking ass.

Finasteride is clinically proven to slow the balding process in 80% of men, and regrow hair in 60% of men... but suit yourself.

Some of us look *BAD* with a shaved head, and can't for the life of them gain any weight... so we're stuck with taking drugs and waiting for a cure.

with all the weird side effects, it still makes me reconsider not taking it. even though i am young...
>> Anonymous

I suffered no side effects.
I was quite scared to try it too, especially if you go to hairloss forums and stuff, you read so much bad shit...
But the reason theres so much bad shit to read is because people who it works for DON'T go on the internet and complain about it. They go out and have fun with their lives.

Or, in my case, I go on 4chan and go in the /fit/ness board.
But at least I don't feel old!

I haven't heard too many negative side effects from topical finasteride.

for people who have tried finasteride and it hasn't worked, you could always give a shot at trying Dutasteride. It's quite a bit more effective than finasteride.

"Topical" finasteride?

They have topical Fin now?

Hey does anyone know if your ability to retain hair comes from your mother or fathers side?
>> Anonymous

Both. I have zero hair loss genes from my Mom's side, and almost zero on my Dad's. I have one great uncle who is bald.

And I have it. Only person other than his old ass. Shit sucks.
