Wow... never before did I think I would feel so embarassed about this until just recently. I've known for the past couple years that I was starting to lose my hair. (I'd wash my hair in the shower... 10-20 hairs would magically appear within my soapy palm. I would put on my ball cap and go for a work out, come back and the rim of my hat was layered with random hairs.) I just figured I couldn't do anything about it. It wasn't taking hold very quickly so i don't think it really registered.
More recently its been starting to grab me. The hair is getting thinner right at the vertex of the back of my head and I can stick my fingers back there and feel the heat from my brain. You all know what i'm talking about... the feeling of skin. Now I find myself constantly trying to do a 180 degree turn inbetween two mirrors in my bathroom trying to see what everybody else is seeing. If its really as bad as I think it is.
I'm a prideful man and love my hair but I was always prepared to go on without it... until now. Now I don't want to lose it and i'm torn between believing there is something we can do about it, or if these drugs are placebo's making you believe it is going to do something about it.
I admit, I'm a novice and I don't know very much about any of these drugs, or prescriptions. I'm just asking for a little bit of advice from some of you who have been at this grind for awhile now.
Is there anything I should start off with? Do I have to get a prescription for this stuff?
What kind of money am I looking at with this?
I'm 27. Hair is nice and full all around the vertex, its just thinning where my hairline is.
Any great advice is appreciated.
Thank you! I will take some pictures and post them.
