I wanted to post that I've also started to change the way I massage my hairline/thinning spots. Before, when I started receding I used to rapidly massage oils and shampoo at the hairline and GLIDE over the scalp. I did this because I believed it would enhance " circulation ". I would do this in...

Since being off Finasteride, hairline is continuing to recede but its not too bad.Ive also noticed my Mood is way better. I kind of has this suspicion that finasteride was maybe making me a bit depressed or lower mood. But that's the only thing I noticed get better recently. I also decided to...

Im not sure about that though... I had crazy acne even on finasteride. Especially on the receding hairline areas, painful pimples too... I had oily skin on Finasteride. Im not sure how to fix the acne part. Im sure theres a relation or root cause but not sure what else to do. Im hoping maybe the...

oh dam that actually describes me, I did the same thing haha, id follow my hairline with my fingers and check too. could be right, maybe too much friction from massaging?

thanks man, still receded quite a bit, I just wanna find out why im getting acne in those hairline areas, its painful too.

gettin lots of acne around my hairline. any ideas if any relation to recession?

Yep! no more finasteride, just stuff like saw palmetto, stinging nettle root. still using minoxidil

few pics. dates should be on the photo title.

Will post a hair update later today. Hair is looking okay, still recessed but coming in. Something I've noticed with the hairloss is that my hair grows in quite slow. I remember when I was younger my hair would grow super fast in just one month. Anyone else notice not just overall thinning...

Wanted to update people, I've decided to stop Finasteride. I've accepted my situation and im just going to try and rock whatever hairline I have or keep a shaved head. I've started taking saw palmetto and stingling nettle root as well as a variety of other herbal adaptogens. I'll continue to to...

Talked to a pharmacist today, he says the keto shampoo daily may be to harsh and causing issues. He said to cut that out from daily to maybe 1x a week. When I explained 2% keto shampoo is part of the big 3 he said its mostly for fungal issues. The shampoo I use though isn't nizoral, its hair...

Thanks for the comment, this summer im gonna try and do a full razor shave to the scalp and get a sick tan, see how it looks.

apparently most transplant places tho say you should stay on finasteride so your hair behind transplanted spots don't recede further. somethin to think about. no side effects so everythings good so far. just money wise it can be quite a bit to be consistently using finasteride and minoxidil etc

With the way my hairline is starting to look, im really considering just dropping the finasteride, minoxidil. Just invest my time and money into other ways to benefit my health. 8 months on, I don't think ill be inhibiting any more dht nor regrowing anything more. I think im just a 25 year old...

putting few photos.different lighting really shows the severity of thinning. march 23rd will mark 8 months of finasteride. yall think i can pull off the bald look?
