Already on finasteride for 2.5 months. Taking Kento for my itchy scalp. Ordered a 1mm dermaroller. Mino is really expensive where I live so I'm not sure if I can use that.
It costs me like 50$ a bottle so I'm not sure if I can afford getting it. I'm 19 and already have almost no hair. Really sucks. Could a hair transplant help me if all doesn't work? Since I'm a diffuse thinner and allwow, that looks bad for a 19 year old.
Its good that you're taking finasteride. but you really need to find a way to get Minoxidil. It will help thicken up and regrow those miniaturized hairs.
I'm also a diffuse thinner and Minoxidil has helped me a lot.

When would I be able to get one? When I become 21?No one will give you a hairtransplant at 19 years old. You will have to use minoxidil and finasteride if you want to keep or regrow your hair, there is no other way.
When would I be able to get one? When I become 21?
My dad is bald but my mom's grandpa only has a receding hairline. Most of my uncles had a pretty receding hairline by the age of 27-28 or so. On my dad side most of my nephews have a full head of hair at the age of 25. My brother of 26 is balding heavily though, he wasn't as bad as I am right now but his sides are pretty much gone and his backside (vortex?) Is pretty much bald. Really sad to hear that I might become a n6 by the age of 25. Is there no hope for me? Does fina even work?No doctor will give you a transplant because it looks like you are destined to be a slick norwood 6 by 25 . How is the family history of balding on both sides? Im sure ur dad is bald but what about everyone else?

Thanks for your understanding man. I honestly wouldn't mind going bald when I'm 24 or so. I'm done with college then and at that point I wouldn't care that much. It's just when I go to college I see no one who's bald. It's hard not to compare yourself with them and feel bad about your balding head.Yeah its tough man. I really feel for you. I have seen some cases where guys in your position are able to make a full recovery but it usually involves dutasteride,minoxidil and dermarolling.I think you should just stick with finasteride for a year and hope for the best before anything else. Ideally you would want to add minoxidil too (it can make a huge difference for some) but I understand the financial situation is tough. Thats one of the things that suck the most about balding while still in school, the treatments can be hard to get without a job.
And yeah dont believe the moms dad hype. That is a myth and is misunderstood by most people. It has to do with the androgen receptor gene which doesnt really tell the full story. After wasting a shitload of time on this site and seeing a ridiculous amount of posts i'm almost certain for most guys your fathers side of the family is a better indication of if you will be balding or not.

I will try to derma roll for 2 months and see how much improvement I'll have doing that. If I only have little gains ,I'll try mino for 3 months. If nothing works I guess I have to take the L and go bald, since hair transplants are apparently not possible for guys as young as me :/. Btw what is the correct way to derma roll? Thanks for responding in advance
Will definitely do this! Also, how long does a bottle of mino last?The thing with hairloss is 3 months is usually not enough to tell if something is working. With minoxidil and derma rolling you would need atleast 6 months to see and with finasteride atleast a year. Get kirkland liquid minoxidil if anything because it is cheaper. For dermarolling 1mm is okay but next time maybe go for the 1.5mm.

To say hair doesn't matter is a joke .no one wants to go bald or even progress past nw1. I want to stay nw0 for life but we know how slim the chances are of that.
I understand what you mean but I just want to try and see if anything works. If nothing works f*** it, there are worse things in life than going bald. I just have to embrace it. But at least I want to try. Thanks for your input though.I see a lot of bald guys with hot chicks...
