In january 2015, when i was about to turn 23, i had an itchy scalp, i went to a walk in clinic and the doctor whom i never visited before took an exceptionally quick look at my head and prescribed me finasteride. Been taking it ever since. At first it was no big deal, i never thought about my hair, but a few months after that i just started obssessing over it, could i really be going bald? i visited a several doctors since then, including my normal gp. All of them have said they see no balding whatsoever. Yet, i have been taking finasteride out of fear that its been keeping my hair, even though i feel like i have worsened to a great degree in terms of my hair since i started taking it. My last visit was to my new doctor who, when i asked for the script said it must be working. I told him i feel like my haiir has gotten worse since i started taking it and he told me if thats the case, then i shouldnt even need to be taking it. He said he sees no hair loss other than the normal maturation, he then showed me his head and said the same thing happoened to him at my age and his hair hasnt changed since. I cant stop thinking about it. whenever i ask my family or friends if it looks like im balding they always tell me that im not. but for some reason i just dont trust them cause i feel like they dont want me to feel bad. what i really want to know is whether the general public, when they see me, can notice im that im balding or not. Also should i sstart rogaine?
