    Can You Have Temples Growing Back In A Bit But Top Of Head Continuing To Thin On Finasteride?

    I think so. That's exactly my current situation. Started finasteride and minoxidil to regrow temples. Got some good regrowth initially, then started shedding, seemingly from the top and a tiny bit of diffused loss from sides and back. Funny thing is I never had that before. My temples are seeing vellus...

    19 & Losing Temples, How Bad Is It?

    I usually measure the width of the temple triangle borders from the front by comparing it to the brows, but your pics don't allow that. So I'll comment on the temple corners instead. It looks about time you started a precautionary regimen but it doesn't look bad. Your furthest receded point...

    Improved Hair Line After Minoxidil Use

    Personally I think it's to do with what not to eat than what to eat. I notice an increase in shedding when I consume pro-inflammatory foods in larger quantities - sugar, saturated fat. Total fat intake may also be inflammatory if it is too much, I'm not sure about this one. So consumption of...

    My Hair Temple Problem Does Not Seem To Improve - Any Solutions?

    You are in better shape than most. Stick to the dermarolling and minoxidil and the temples might thicken in time. Or they may not, and you may have to choose to go the spironolactone route.

    Guys, Help Me Out Here. Is This A Normal Cowlick Or Am I Thinning?

    My hair is parted at the crown, but there is a segment of my hair where I can see my scalp (the vertical part if that makes sense). Does it look like it's receding at that particular spot? Thanks! Video:

    Gaining Fat On Purpose. Good Idea Or Not?

    Well, well. After deliberate consideration, I have decided to go completely sedentary - zero exercise apart from walking. I will also consume enough food to put on fat. Note: not weight, fat. Now, don't get me wrong, I am not claiming anything, but this is simply an experiment with myself on...

    Percentage Of Dht Inhibited In Response To Finas Dosage

    Say we block 50% of 5ar enzyme, that still leaves 50% to produce DHT. If our free testosterone increases a fair amount, does that mean our DHT levels will also rise correspondingly in proportion? Does it scale in proportion? Or does it work like this, when u take x mg of finasteride u decrease...

    Peapoddy's Story - (25 : Just Starting Finasteride)

    The naivete of some people on this forum smh. If u don't think pro bodybuilders/physique athletes are on potent AIs by default, then u are pretty darn gullible. As for Adam still sticking to his story about being natural, I'll give him a free pass since he is sponsored.

    Minoxidil Potentially Causing Joint Problems?

    Some of yall may have come across this study establishing a relationship between minoxidil and an inhibition of fibroblasts in vitro. Basically, what people have been saying that minoxidil hinders collagen production is true (many reports of people getting wrinkles and looking aged)...

    Is Minoxidil Induced Shedding Local?

    Hi guys, so I started minoxidil about 3 months ago only on my temples and got a very tiny amount of regrowth but along the sides of my forehead (and especially above my lateral eyebrows) many vellus hairs grew which eventually darkened somewhat. Then a few days ago I decided to apply minoxidil...

    Any Truth To Skull Expansion?

    Honestly that does not disprove the theory. The frontal bone runs from directly on the top of the orbits to the coronal suture at the top of the cranium vault. U wrote that he was NW3A, and his re-balding patterns seem to agree with this. Hair transplanted to just about his natural hairline has...

    Any Truth To Skull Expansion?

    Indeed. And there was a study which followed some patients who had botox injected into their scalp muscles, and results were something like 20% average increase in hair count 1 year later after 2 sessions of botox. If that isn't extremely revealing I don't know what is.

    This Case Seems To Support The Skull Expansion Theory

    Not so fast. I think the theory posits that it is an enlarged skull from the exaggeration of the bone remodeling process that causes a reduction in blood supply to the capillary network within the balding area of the scalp. I have also read another theory (I think it is the gravity theory by a...
