I am not at all implying that you look like some sort of monster. Also damn, you guys are really negative. At my age, a lot of friends of mine are balding, some quite severely. None of them really have a problem with women strictly because of their hair. Quite a lot of female friends I have are...

Yes, I know that I'm still fortunate compared to guys with a Norwood 4 - 6. I have however also met quite a lot of guys who are balding worse than me, some at a Norwood 6 level, who still have a fulfilled love life. Many girls I've talked to think that while it's not ideal, hairless is not the disfiguring...

Hey guys, this is my attempt to maybe put balding into perspective. I'm 27 years old an propably a Norwood 2,5. Balding temples and a thin spot (though not bald) on my crown. For the last couple of years I am battling hairloss sucessfully with finasteride and minoxidil, but it never regrew to the point where...

So I started doing this 3 weeks ago. A bit painful, but ok. I think my hair is getting slightly better, but it could be because I started increasing the minoxidil dosage about 3 months ago. My hairline definitly is a bit better that it was. However, this morning I experienced why they say to wait...

So I'm in on this. I did it for the first time last week, and I have a couple questions. I'm sure they've been asked a 100 times already, but unfortunately I don't have the time to read a almost 300 page thread :( - How long should I do it? I'm rolling hard, the pain is noticeable but bearable...

Update: about 36-40 Months now. Hair is still pretty much the same. Front half is stron, vertex kinda thin, hairline stayed the same. My temples have at best improved a tiny bit. It's still not hair where I'd say I'm happy with it, but I don't stress myself anymore. It's not horrible, and I'm...

Hello! I've been using the big three for roundabout 3 years now. Fincar quartered, rogaine foams ~2,5ml a day, ket every few days. After some OK regrowth it's pretty much stayed the same for the last year and a half. With some toppik anda good haircut I'm OK with what I've got now, if it stayed...

I used to think it was all imagination, but in the last months I experimented with dosage a bit, and for me dark rings under my eye are definitly connected to minoxidil use. When I took a break for about a week I didn't sleep well and drank two nights in a row, and looked pretty ok. Two weeks...

Just my two cents. I'm 5'4'' or 162cm and balding and I've spent 3 of the last 4 years in relationships, the last one being with a girl that was 5'7''. I've also had a girl who was close to 5'10'' who was into me, we made out a bit at some point. I've also been hit on quite regularily over the...

Captain Obvious, my current GF is 5'8'', or 4 inches taller than me. She said that she worried about my height until the moment we kissed, then she didn't care anymore. I've also had girls interested in me who were quite a bit taller than me, some pretty good looking ones too.

I'm balding and 5'4'', and I've been in relationships for 3 of the last 4 years and have been dating and sleeping with other girls during that time. Being short does me no favors, but it doesn't exclude me from a social life. Just fyi.

Hi! For the first 9 months or so I shed a lot more than I do now, and my hair got worse for quite some time. I'd say that the first noticable results came around month 12, and the really obvious results after month 15. So basically from month 12-24 it's been going slowly uphill.

24 Month update (still no pics) So I said I'd post an update when things change, and they have.. fortunately for the better! I'm now at the 24 month mark with my treatments, and my hair is pretty close to what it was 3-4 years ago, before my hairloss got really aggressive. The crown is still...

I've been using Avalon Biotin B Complex shampoo for about a week now, and it really works very well. It's also pretty cheap and has a bunch of stuff in it that's good for your scalp. I recommend it!

Re: How the f*ck can anyone cope with this sh*t?! I'm 5'4'', balding, have a small penis, white spots all over my body, huge scars everywhere because I heal badly, bad facial skin and early wrinkles on a face that is average at best, yellow teeth (even though I get them professionaly cleaned...
