Hi. I rarely respond to posts on here, but reading yours reminded me of some of the things that were running through my head when I first noticed my hair loss. Without going into details about my personal story, I can guarantee you that their is hope! Like the crustacean says, your hair loss...

In my opinion, this kinking of the hair is more the work of other androgens other than DHT.
