Hi Mont! Wow that's really quite some reply!! Thank you for taking the time to write out such a detailed and informative reply. I am just about to go and play footy (I too am very sporty - can only be a good thing!) But later on I shall reply in full - There are some very interesting points...

Yeah, I agree - most people say my hair is fine and I've seen specialists who say my head of hair is healthy, but to me in the mirror it's quite a lot thinner than it was just 12 months ago! It is worse at the moment though which I am hoping is just the meds kicking in. I am going to chill out...

Thanks mate, appreciate that! :)

To be honest mate, I think you just need to get to 12 months at least before even considering anything else, especially something so drastic. You have had your scalp checked and it sounds as if the results from that are positive. I hope that when I go to have mine checked I am told something...

Yes that is true and yes it is giving me quite a lot of anxiety, which is obviously unpleasant. I understand there are worse things in life but it's not always easy to think in such terms! I've haven't had it cut for a while now and stopped colouring it, which probably doesn't help at all as...

Yes I can see similarities here. Your hair still looks pretty thick in the middle, more so than mine. What i'm clinging on to is that the hair loss is relatively recent (in terms of hair cycles etc) The pictures I attached from 18 months ago I had a good head of hair and it's only the past...

Thanks for your replies. I shall ride it out and as mentioned I have an appointment to have my scalp looked at. I'll post an update after I have been. I was hoping that the loss or shed I have had is a sign that the medication is working and I will start to observe some regrowth - however I...

Have put a couple of pics on from about a year and a half ago - I've lost so much thickness.

Yes I believe so, but I don't really know much about it all - I've been reading these forums for months. Should I carry on with what i'm doing? 7 months in Finasteride now and it's the past couple where it's visably thinner.

Those pics were September/October 2016 - I just wanted to try and fill in the receding area a bit so I started on Rogaine. I had no issue at all with the thickness. I can't have my hair in a style anything like that now, just way too thin. I have had quite a lot of stress around the time...

Yeah I still use the Rogaine. No I haven't noticed more wrinkles or dark eyes.

Hi, Around 14 months ago I started using Rogaine (5% foam) as my temples had started receding. I did not see much improvement so around 7 months ago I started 1mg Finasteride. The first two weeks of finasteride my libido shot up unbelievably, this then returned to normal. Things have just...
