Just so you know, cancer is able to spread to other parts of your body. Although it's a litter rare, cancer is able to enter the blood stream and actually move to other parts of your body. In some rare cases of testicular cancer, the cancer cells can move to the liver and kidneys even before a...

Thanks JW, that's all a big relief. Guess that means I can stick with it until the next great big treatment comes along.

Hi, I've been taking Finestride for about 2 years now but recently I've heard some disconcerting news about it that I was hoping to get verified by someone much more knowledgeable. Someone recently told me that in a study done with rats being given finestride that the rats have been...

Hey everyone, Since hearing how well the laser comb has been for thickening up hair, I thought that maybe I'd look into buying one. Looking on e-bay, I searched for "laser comb" and came up with the Hairmax version, and a version called Leimo. Has anyone heard anything about this type...

I was just wondering, cuz I have the tiny pigmented hairs as well, what would happen if we start using the Hairmax Laser Comb. I mean, it's been proven to thicken hair. Maybe it'll make these little hairs have the same thickness as a our normal hair. I wonder if anyone tried it before. I...

Well, I guess that means the treatments are definetly working. I'm not as lucky as you Trent, it took me about seven months to get these velus hairs. Hopefully, a lot of them will begin going terminal soon. Btw, about how often is a hair cycle?

I don't get this whole directing in the right direction thing. I mean, how do hair transplant now happen. They use pre-existing hair to transplant it into the scalp right. Well why can't they do that with the "cloned" hair. Just allow it to grow in some pre-existing medium and than use it for...

What amazes me is the fact that a woman in California had her cat cloned for 50,000 dollars, meanwhile cloning hair is still 4-5 years away. And from what I've heard on this forum, it'll be estimated at costing 20,000 dollars. How is that freaking possible.

Hey everyone, I've been seeing some re-growth of some fine hairs on my front (and I hope on the back of my head...) The only problem is that they're still pretty fine and slow growing. But I have noticed that they are growing in length and thickness...just really slowly. Does...

Well, for someone that already works out I don't see that as a solution to the problem. I know that I should get over it, and sometimes I really do. Sometimes I go for days without even thinking about my hair. But then someone might make a comment, or I might catch someone staring at my receding...

I'm defintely obsessed. I constantly look at my hair, even if I'm just walking in the parking lot I look at my reflection in the windows just to make sure that no one can notice the receding forehead and diffuse thinnning. I even consciously make an effort not to stand in direct lighting so no...

Personally, I was thinking of using a number two on my entire head. I don't think I can pull off the shark finasteride approach...it's unfortunate that the only styles us balders can have is to cut our hair short. But you're scared to cut your hair short because people might begin to notice just how...

Hey everyone, Alright, I'm about a Norwood 2-3 with some slight thinning at the back of my head and thinning in the front as well. Now, I'm trying to find a hairstyle since my old one isn't working...especially with the balding that's going on. Right now my hairs pretty...

I haven't had a transplant, but I heard that the scabs should be gone within a week or two. I'm not sure why your face got bloated, but it might just be a reaction to the sedative (if you were given one). I think that you should let the new hair grow out until its time you get your hair cut...

Thanks Thomas, your advice was very helpful. Unfortunately, although I wish I could have Hair transplants, I can't really afford them. As I'm still going through college, I can't really raise up 1000+ dollars to go get one. Unless I created some sort of "donate to buy me hair" website...which I...
