Hi guys
36 years old guy.....
Ok, I spent weeks reading everything on these forums 10 years ago when i noticed thinning and recieding.
I went for propecia and regaine. I had a big shed after 3 months(looked terrible), eventually at the 2 year mark it had recovered from the shed and stabalized with full coverage and the follwing 8 years i kept at the treatment and forgot about it and never had the itch. I think i noticed a coiple of times when i part my hair in the centre to apply regaine sometimes the width is much wider, im guessing all the hairs when i shed and cycle are in synch...... my theory anyway lol
Ok so over the last decade i have thineed very slowly, and recieded very slowly. nothing that would cause me to worry.
So i have full coverage with i'd say a 1.5 norwood, maybe nearly 2. So I'm very happy i would call the maintenance a success. My Dad was completely or very nearly completely bald by 40.
I'm a keen gym goer and like an absolute idiot i took a 12 week cycle in Testosterone injections. 500ml a week to try and put a bit of size on. yes i can see you all know shaking your heads!
I'm at the end of the 12 weeks and i have thinned quite a lot, more in the very centre of the top of my head, it looks pretty bad wet but i still have full coverage.....just. Constantly have the itch which makes me sad as i know thats where i'm losing hair. I bought some nizoral last week and its helped slightly. I have completely stopped the test cycle and will never touch it again.
Its damaged my hair, made it really thin and the itch/burn is often. I am an IDIOT! It was going so well
Is there any feedback on this? i.e - can i recover the hair i've lost? Will it keep getting worst? Should i up the dosage of finasteride to 2.5 instead of 1.25. Anyone suffered similar? Is it the test cycle? Can i add anythig to my treatment? Basically will my hair thicken up again? And was it going through a cycle/shed anyway - but i triggered it with the additional test.
Any feedback most welcome
John
