OKAY SO.. I am just stating my opinions on this whole balding bojangles. I say they are my opinions be cause they kind of lack substance to be theories and I am open to people shredding my views.. just as well as people who will take what I say and tell me what THEY think/know and fully...

I kind of support this. It's the same road of thought for me.. I totally think the main (but not only) cause is of the prostate. Thinking back, I started experiencing prostate problems the same time my hair started shedding in the shower which was summer 2011 (diffuse crown thinning by the way)...

Wow, your results are pretty satisfying. I'm 20 y/o with diffuse thinning as well, I'm considering just using minoxidil and 2% nizoral (fellow canadian as well). Your results from those two are convincing and the finasteride seemed to speed it up a little. I'm kinda scared of finasteride though, did you get any side...

LOL I just realized you replied on my post as well..

Dude! I think we have the same thing.. the whole diffuse crown thinning and inflammation. I also had long hair (longer than yours) and wouldn't have ever though of balding till I cut it short in December 2011. I bought 2% Nizoral but I haven't tried it yet because I've been prescribed for...

I know nobody has answered in awhile but I have a question. I have a random pimple or two on my scalp in different places from time to time. My very uneducated guess would be that its a mix of the sebum oil and bacteria (I do wear hats to cover up my hair thinning). Is this the same oil...

Hey man, I've been going through the same thing for almost. I haven't started any treatments yet due to my health, still getting that assessed. I was just wondering if you had any noticeable health issues when you started noticing you were balding? I really wanted to take propecia/proscar but I...

OK, I'm back. Sorry for the absence but I just got a new laptop. Anyways, finasteride seems like the best choice BUT I haven't decided to take it yet because I'm suspecting some sort of a hormonal imbalance/thyroid issue. Why? because for awhile I've been feeling symptoms under those categories a...

This totally sounds like me.. I haven't started anything yet either, my blood tests are still being assessed and have yet to see if I'm able to get a prescription for some finasteride. Check out my post, I have some photos of my hair. Things have been happening around the same time as well...

Lloyd Braun: I don't know if these will help. Couldn't do anything about the rotation, it uploaded that way for some reason. I know my temples look receded but they've been like that since I hit puberty because those were baby hairs before. @Antman: Is Nioxin something I can just grab at...

Hey again, Thanks so much for the replies, I really appreciate them. I was really hoping I wouldn't have to use finasteride/minoxidil but I've accepted the fact that I will have to soon. The regimen I've just thought up of right now would be Nizoral, Biotin supplements and this deep conditioning shampoo...

Hello all, My story started around September 2011. I've alway been known to have nice thick stylish hair. I grew my hair out like a hippie for a year I would say from summer 2010 up until mid-December 2011 when I decided to cut it. It was very nice, long, thick and wavy hair. But, I started...
