I have been shedding for a few years now.
My hairline has started to recede and almost all the males in my family have the male pattern baldness.
Anyone else face this issue?
I know you have two treatment for this but you must sacrifice things to use them.
propecia (fin) - fks up your dck, erection , libido, brain everything
minoxidil - last couple of years then the effect wears off.
I did try finasteride 1.25 mg for a week. Started getting sides; no morning wood, watery ejaculation etc, so it quit right there. (but the fking thing stopped my hairloss completely)
I am NW1 now but still scared of the thought of becoming bald. I am going to try finasteride at much lower dose, if the sides come again i think i will go for minoxidil or just accept baldness.

I know, some people just accepts the sides and sacrifice their dck for hair.
I mean the water ejaculation means that the sperm count is low. You are really fking with your fertility and thats serious.

It has to be taken forever. If you stop, the shedding will start in matter of months and you will lose all the hair you maintained with propecia.
But this fking drug is impressive, i tell ya. I took it for a little over a week and fk me.. i tried to pull my hair with my hands. 0 hair fell out. I couldnt believe it so I pulled really rough, just like I would do on the hair on my backhead. 0 hair again.
Its amazing.
But it has a price: side effects.
Quote from: Polycrates. on March 10, 2014, 01:22:13 AMWhat are the side effects for you?
watery ejaculation (low semen)
low libido
loss of morning erections
acne
testicle ache
brain fog
slight depression
Quote from: TheRisingShorty on March 11, 2014, 02:48:25 AMActually finisteride should decrease/prevent acne because of DHT inhibition. DHT triggers sebaceous glands to over produce sebum and therefore more prone to acne breakout. With less DHT circulating = less acne.
the acne occured because of the massive fluctation in hormons. I reckon it would cease if I continued using propecia.
Quote from: maximize on July 12, 2015, 05:46:52 AMIf you are losing your hair you really owe it to yourself to give a good try on finasteride and failing that, dutasteride.
I am getting good regrowth on dutasteride at 6 months in. My density is still great. But I still wish I would have started sooner. I'll be getting a hair transplant in a few months to repair my hairline and correct it's general shape/position, which was never very good. Always had too high a hairline. Hoping after that it will be better shaped.
After that, I plan to stay on dutasteride for life to keep my head of hair in prime condition.
Incidence of low libido or erectile dysfunction compared to placebo is very, very low for both finasteride and dutasteride. People worry way too much about that stuff.
come back when you are capable of having a child. you are playing with fire, bro.
