    Working Out to reduce side effects

    Most Side effects from finasteride occur because it affects hormones...however, heavy muscle building exercise increases testosterone...so logically it must help the side effects of finasteride?

    Working Out = negate sides of finasteride?

    Working out raises Testosterone, while finasteride blocks DHT....do you think working out hard (muscle building mainly) will help reduce sides?

    Norwood? - male pattern baldness? Pics.

    whats monk head mean? Does that mean I'll thin at the top too? Wouldn't Norwood 3 mean my temples are really far back and that most of the hair on the sides are gone? On the diagram I look more like a 3 but on the first picture, when I pull my hair far back, it looks deep into my temple but the...

    Norwood? - male pattern baldness? Pics.

    Hey guys So I had a haircut in November and noticed my hairline going back a bit.

Here are some pics: So my hair has receded back here a few...

    Questions for Newb: Nor 1, 2, or 3? (pic)

    Any thoughts on my questions about the effects of stress and working out with weights? And how to distinguish between Norwood 2 and 3 - I'm a bit worried about side effects of finasteride/minoxidil if I start them for no reason if my hairline is just maturing. Thanks a bunch for your help. Isn't the thinning...

    Questions for Newb: Nor 1, 2, or 3? (pic)

    Hey I've looked extensively at the Norwood image scale, and am trying to figure out which one I am. Few questions: - is there any absolute way to tell the difference between Norwood 2 and 3. what is the typical amount of temporal recession for Norwood 2 versus 3. If its 2, how will I know if...
