    Really Depressed

    No problem. I've had thyroid disease- technically Graves' Disease if you want to look it up since 2005. I am very familiar with it and anytime you have a question let me know. Thyroid shedding is diffuse! I know it's easy to believe it's the medicine causing the shed but I assure you it's your...

    Really Depressed

    Assuming your scales are similar to mine with FT4 being 0.80-1.8 you are right in the sweet spot. That's great. My Derm always says it takes up to 6 months of stable thyroid numbers to get shedding stabilization. I found it takes much less. Also, they always assure me while you will shed due to...

    Oh it will def stabilize. What's your TSH, FT3 or FT4 #'s? I actually have hyperthyroidism. But they always give me too much anti-thyroid medicine (methimazole) trying to correct my dose and I swing hypothyroid.

    Pavi, I don't doubt you're good looking. That should make you feel even better about your prospects with or without hair

    Really Depressed

    I would agree that any changes with thyroid will cause shedding. The thyroid is a nightmare. I'm at a TSH of 50 right now. Not .50 like 50.0 out of a .450-4.50 scale. But I only shed when I'm hyper typically

    Will Propecia Keep My Hair For Life?

    Who can know? At best people have only been on it 20 years.

    I have severe thyroid disease. The meds won't cause the shed but the thyroid will. If you have thyroid disease, Pavi, that's your answer to shedding.

    Really Depressed

    Pavi, honestly, you may need therapy. That's not normal to be that upset over hair. Until I joined this forum I had never seen the type of self-loathing associated with hair-loss in my life. Many of my friends started losing their hair at 18 and they just shaved it and got on with life. Some...

    Celebrities On finasteride

    I don't know about you guys but my dick fell off. I'm just kidding but that crap had a bad effect on me. I couldn't stand it and it's not gone away yet after cessation. Hope it does. But it all comes down to quality of life. If you still can even question continuing then you haven't had that...

    Hair Looks Thin When Wet But No Miniaturisation. Still Balding Or What?

    Yeah, I will give it a shot. Thanks for the tip! I lose a lot of hair in the shower too. If I wash my hair after about 3 days off I'll get a nice drain plug full. As soon as I get in and run my hair threw the shower with my fingers, if I pull my hands out of my hair and there's hair all over...

    Hair Looks Thin When Wet But No Miniaturisation. Still Balding Or What?

    Bro, I'm 30, I think you look good. My hair is still holding but I'm a diffuse thinner too. Here's what I would say, from the front you look real good. The back looks thin but from your pictures at 18/19 it looks just the same which leads me to believe that's what you look like naturally and...

    finasteride Is f*****g Bs!

    It works for some and not for others. Personally, I wouldn't mess with dutasteride but to each their own. But I don't blame you for cutting and running. When that hair comes out for months it's hard to keep taking it

    My Weird Strange Hairloss Trip- Pic

    What's up fellas, I wanted to give you a brief glimpse into my weird Hairloss journey. I am 30 and have had no problems with Hairloss until last summer 2015. I noticed I was feeling the sun on my crown for the first time in my life. I began shedding rapidly this past fall and winter. Losing...

    DHT

    DHT also prevents men from getting b**ch tits and feminizing your body.

    Propecia Sides- Should I Continue or Stop? Opinions Please!

    Wow, yeah, 22 is tough. I thought 30 was young. I didn't have a care in the world about hair until this past year. Never thought I'd ever go bald as I always had a mop top. But the aggressive shedding the past year has me seriously worried. It's to the point if I comb it straight down you can...
