    Thoughts on switching from finasteride to dutasteride?

    Hello. 31yo male here. I began noticing slight balding/thinning in my crown around age 23-24 (approx 6'ish years ago). Around age 25, I began to take a proactive approach, and started using Rogaine. During that time, it initially thickened up my crown, but over the next 4-5 years, it was...

    Finasteride/Propecia to Dutasteride/Avodart??

    I've been on rogaine since 2006 (6 years this fall). I was 25 years old when I started noticing some minor thinning in my crown and started that treatment; I was being proactive about it. I continued the rogaine treatment for the next four years. I'm convinced that it helped to slow my hair...

    Good Short Hair Example On This Dude

    Was looking through short hair pictures for haircuts. This guy doesn't appear to be balding too badly...but he's pretty much chosen to cut his hair short. I bet that's a #1 or #2 on the clippers. He does the "bald" thing like a superstar. And even if he were really balding...I bet he'd "own...

    Why is there not a REAL solution to male pattern baldness yet?

    ha ha!...just like other important things like fake tits and nose jobs? Obviously there was room and a market for those. C'mon. Have you ever seen the amount of money spent by people on hairloss "cures and treatments"...including those that aren't even clinically proven to work? It's goddam...

    Why is there not a REAL solution to male pattern baldness yet?

    It's possible to "clone" or "make" a sheep, human, and other complicated living organisms with identical DNA from a "donor." Today. Right now. So, why can't we just take a hair from the back of someones head (yep, just a simple hair...follicle included)...replicate it enough times for what...

    Why is there not a REAL solution to male pattern baldness yet?

    Sure the "big 3" can slow down, stop, and even reverse hair loss (and transplants can be an option for the right people). But even today's current hair loss treatments are not a complete "cure" or solution to the problem. They may work well for a while (or possibly indefinitely for some...

    Cheapest Place for Rogaine Online?

    Hey forum. Just looking for some help finding a good online place to order Rogaine. Looking for a legitimate site where I can find the best prices for Rogaine foam. Although it doesn't matter, I'm looking for the brand-name Rogaine (rather than generic forms of minoxidil). Anyone have any...

    Slight Shedding Again At 7 Months on Finasteride?

    My shedding seems to have slowed down quite a bit from that 7 month point, although I'm still shedding a little bit more hair than I think I'd like to. However, the hair that I'm shedding now is a lot thicker. I can really tell, because I have dark hair. My results right now look good still...

    What about this dude with the buzz cut?

    I'd say he's like a #2 or #3 guard on the clippers though, don't you think? I mean, that's pretty much a buzz.

    What about this dude with the buzz cut?

    I was looking at a place online where chicks were rating guys, and this guy with the buzzcut did well. He could easily pull off the bald look, don't you think? His hair is probably a #2/#3 clipper guard there. It's pretty short. IDK, just looking at different haircuts/styles for bald dudes.

    Slight Shedding Again At 7 Months on Finasteride?

    Hello. I started the finasteride/minoxidil combo about 7 months ago. I went through a few of the initial strong sheds throughout the first 3 months. After that, my results seemed to be fairly good, and my shedding had subsided until about a week ago. I'm right around the 7 month point, and the...

    When does Finasteride max out? It's working for me.

    Hello, I'm 29 and coming up on 6 months of treatment on finasteride. When I started, I was a NW3 with a mildly thinning crown. So I started treatment fairly early before things got worse. I've been a good responder to finasteride. I went through a few pretty good sheds in the initial three...

    100 hairs on pillow in morning?

    I'm just saying dudes...you can kind of see where that thinning is starting to crawl up into his crown just a litttttle bit. Just a little bit of thinning. Give it 5-10 years, and I'm saying that his crown is going to be noticeable. So, if "noticeable" isn't doable for someone, then I'd...

    Winning the war on finasteride...when's peak?

    Coming up on 5 months on finasteride on the 20th of November. This stuff is absolutely kicking ***. My hair is looking so much thicker in general, and so are the individual strands that I'm shedding here and there. I'm a responder. I don't know why I'm one of the lucky ones, I must have said my...
