    Healthy Looking Terminal Hairs Not Growing Or Constantly Shedding?

    1-3 cm sounds like you could put it down to miniaturization though maybe. Literally everything but the hair on the back of my head is like this and its at 4-5 inches in places.

    Healthy Looking Terminal Hairs Not Growing Or Constantly Shedding?

    Cant tell if thats sarcasm or not..I've genuinely never heard of anyone having problems growing normal healthy looking hair. Seems to me that most people can grow anything but vellus hair to any length as far as I know. Even people with very aggressive hair loss can grow the hair that they...

    Healthy Looking Terminal Hairs Not Growing Or Constantly Shedding?

    Hi. Since about 18 my hair suddenly stopped growing beyond the length of a few inches. I never did anything about it until about half a year ago when i tried RU and in the last 4 months added finasteride to that. The hair at the very front which was actually thinning has improved, these were...

    Does EVERYONE experience at least some degree of minor sides effects on finasteride?

    Its a sign of your liver having a hard time dealing with it. I'd just previously been on accutane for a while and noticed the same thing. finasteride is metabolised heavily in the liver so I'd say it is/was nothing to worry about.

    Does EVERYONE experience at least some degree of minor sides effects on finasteride?

    I took a bad hit to libido and had yellowing/blood shot eyes for about a week tops, now I'm not having any sides whatsoever about a month in.

    OMG after 14 years it FINALLY STOPPED!!

    Happy to hear you finally got it sorted. You must be really relieved. When it comes to iron and ferratin deficiency related hair loss what areas does it affect? Was it all of your hair? I'm just wondering, I probably have male pattern baldness but it seems like nearly half the hair on my head falls out before it...

    Why do people care about receding if you can still grow normal healthy hair?

    I don't really understand this. Since about 6-7 years ago all my frontal hair has been miniaturized, every year the hairs get smaller and thinner in the hairline area. The thing is. when I was able to grow these hairs long enough to cover my forehead I didn't care about receding at all. I've...

    baking soda vs candida?

    If your hair loss is in a pattern other than male pattern baldness maybe, otherwise you'd be wasting your time. It sounds like the kind of claim that would be posted on naturalnews or the hundreds of other sites like it. I wouldn't believe a word from any of those sites.

    Questions about growth/regrowth and what to use

    Well thanks for putting that in my head...on the subject of placebo. I might tomorrow as I'm just going off to bed here but there's not much to see really. I don't think its that bad relatively speaking. I Have the typical male pattern baldness widows peak or whatever its name is but it hasn't developed into an...

    Questions about growth/regrowth and what to use

    Thanks for clearing that up.... well mostly. Is it easier to get more growth the less miniaturized the hairs are? Like very slim for white vellus...more chance for thinning and even more for healthy looking miniaturized hair? And if so Is this the realm of minoxidil only or anti androgens, or both...

    Questions about growth/regrowth and what to use

    Hi everyone. At about 19 my hair loss came on all of a sudden but in a really strange pattern. I Didn't lose much hair if any initially but the terminal lengths all became as short as a few inches, getting slightly shorter as they approached my forehead and longer towards the back. I'm 23 now...

    19 years old and on Propecia...

    A much much milder version of this happened to me, its really odd and distressing. Mine happened at the exact same age as well. I lost all the hair in the fringe area seemingly overnight, had to get my hair cut since I had my hair down to my shoulders but had no front hair essentially. Since...

    male pattern baldness research: Black tea reduces DHT 72%, Propecia 70%

    Not sure if i read something wrong here...but this can't be true. I drink about 15 cups of tea a day and I've been losing hair since i was about 19. Unless i have extremely aggressive hair loss and the tea is slowing it down considerably I really doubt it works.
