Hi everyone,
I have a quite a long story, but I'll make it short.
I was diagnosed with Crohns disease just after my 21st birthday.
It ruined my whole life and what I had plans to be and do with my life.
I had a nice, thick NW1 hairline that I've had for years at this time.
I lost my job due to this disease and moved in with my parents.
I had surgery 2 months after I was diagnosed.
I had 8 inches of my large intestines removed.
I had a great hairline and thick hair when I went to the hospital.
The nurses even commented on how nice it looked.
I stayed in the hospital for 8 days to recover and be monitored.
No sign of hair loss still.
I was released to go home and rest until completely healed.
About a month after surgery I was waking up with hair all over my pillow and bed.
I thought it was from being sick and would grow back.
-----
I'm now recovered from surgery fully, its been almost 2 years, but my hair is worse than ever and getting worse.
*I'm anemic, but taking iron daily.
*I was malnourished for about a year, but eating healthier now.
I tried minoxidil for 3 months but I didn't see any change and the dandruff was too much to handle.
I went to a Dermatologist 2 weeks ago and asked for a prescription for Propecia, but she said she wouldn't give it to me because "it has fallen out of favor due to its link to causing cancer and the long term side effects."
So I decided to risk it cause I'd rather have hair and just deal with any sides I get.
I'm now taking 1mg Finpecia from Inhouse daily.
I have small miniaturized hair all along my old nw1 hairline and even some that grow but have no color to them.
Here's a few pics...
I tried my best to get the miniaturized hair but its hard.
Any recommendations?

Thanks to everyone who is willing to help or share.
I'm depressed as it is and this makes things so much worse.
I have absolutely no self confidence anymore.
I used to talk to girls all the time and now I find myself avoiding them.
