Hi guys. Its been about 21 months using finasteride ( with a 2 month break about a 15 months in ) About 9 months using oral minoxidil and 3 months using Cyproterone Acetate. The whole time I've lost hair faster, with the exception of 3 months of regrowth on minoxidil before it suddenly stopped working for no good reason and I lost even more hair as a result. Being on Cypro hasn't made a damn difference! Thankfully it hasn't sped up my hair loss further like finasteride did. I've not had any blood tests to check my hormone levels but I'm confident my testosterone and DHT is low as I no longer get morning wood, sex drive is pretty much non existent, some mild gyno, sebum has drastically been reduced and its impossible to maintain an errection without constant stimulation. I was also on estrogen for a little over 3 months ( 1mg topical and 1mg oral ) but I dropped it as I wasn't maintaining even with all my treatments and was growing boobs pretty fast. Gyno in my left nipple has gone but I still have some in my right. Does anyone know what could possibly be the cause of my hair loss if its not androgens? 3 weeks ago I became almost Vegan ( I still eat eggs and have recently cut out dairy) so my diet is a lot better now. Its pretty much the only thing I can think of that could be causing my lack of results. I imagine most people would get some modest regrowth on this regimen so why the hell hasn't it at least slowed down my balding? I'm at a point where I have to use concealer every day so people don't notice my balding.. It sucks. Any information or advice would be greatly appreciated!
