Post and pictures:
Posted on here a week or so ago. Anyway, all my equipment has finally arrived so I can begin finally!
Below are photos of what I'm using and my current hair situation.
A little back story:
I've always had a high hairline but I've gone from a Norwood 1 to a Norwood 2/2.5 in 3 months (correct me if I'm wrong though).
In the pictures you can actually see where my original hair line was in about April and where it has receded too.
I've always had long hair so have been able to hide it somewhat but it's getting harder and harder so I may have to start getting shorter haircuts.
I've also lost around 25% density on the top and a small gash shaped line has formed in my crown which I don't have a picture of.
6 months ago I had the THICKEST hair imaginable, it was ridiculous, you could pull my hair and it genuinely wouldn't hurt at all. Many barbers have commented over the years on it's ridiculous thickness but it's all gone downhill very quickly.
Baldness does run in my family, I even have an uncle who is on Propecia for 9/10 months now but he has had no problems. I was on finasteride for around 3 weeks (and my shedding completely stopped) but my erections were becoming increasingly weaker (and trust me it wasn't in my head). 2 weeks after quitting they were back and as strong as ever.
Included are photos of my temples both left and right (right side is more receded), my bottle and plastic syringe, the 200ml of 88% vodka I dissolved 3x 1mg finasteride pills in and the charts which show serum DHT and scalp DHT on multiple doses. I have chosen 0.03mg 3x a week or every 3 days.
Wish me luck. Providing I don't drop out due to sides I will try and post monthly photos.
