Hi, I'm Jon 33.
Been on these forums in some capacity for about 11/12 years or so, quite a long time.
Family background; Dad had Norwood -1 hair, 2 brothers both no recession, great grandad had some baldness around norwood 2
So, For me it started in my late teens, I developed the 'mature hairline' where i had hair fall on my pillow etc. No further hair loss for a few years and then it went to sh*t very quickly, I went from the pics here in 2006 to losing in a norwood 5/6 pattern, after a year I was pretty much slick on top with thin hair on the sides. The one thing that always confused me was that I didn't have any shedding... Nada.
My hair has been up and down ever since and sometimes I would be slick bald and other times I would have enough hair to get through in a norwood 3 pattern.
For the last few years my hair has been utterly dreadful, i've been keeping it short with a zero guard, For all intents and purposes I've been bald. I had tried finasteride for a year with minoxidil, Nizoral, Dutas, none of it did anything.
Things have changed in the past half a year or so and hair has started to grow with no intervention. Not just from my head but my eyebrows, body hair, facial hair and everywhere else. The only thing that I can attribute it to is the fact that I've been suffering anxiety/depression for most of my life which culminated with an panic attack and admission to hospital. Since then (and my diagnosis of GAD as opposed to the cardiac issue I though I had) my hair has been growing back steadily.
This thread will serve to document any changes in my body hair, facial hair and hair on my head.
Currently I'm happy with how things have changed, my hair feels much thicker and my eyebrows and facial hair are more defined and people are commenting.
I'll update photos every few weeks to see if there's any changes or I'm just imagining things.
