Introduction
Back when I was sixteen everything wasfine, then two years later if you looked at my head shot, you couldhave swore I was in my mid forties ( from a hair perspective) I usedto think that there was nothing I could do about it. I guess thebiggest thing was that hair is sort of a vanity. If your a guy andyour going bald slowly your just supposed to accept it with quietdignity. If you try to fix it your just doing it to avoid somemidlife crisis.
Th only thing is my midlife crisis washappening when I was twenty. I felt cheated. I skipped out on theconfident hair years of my present because of genetics.
About a two years ago I realized Ididn’t have to stand by and watch my hair get thinner anddisappear. I saw that Minoxidil was available over the counter. So Ibought a bottle. Long story short, I couldn’t keep up with theregimen and I had little success. I would go off and on trying thingshalf-heartedley, always finding ways to forget to do it every day.
Then I had a Kidney stone. So manydoctor's visits. I used to hate them. Now I don't, there justsomething you have to do. Cut to one month ago and I finally work upthe courage to ask my doctor abut Propecia. I told him I wanted totry it for a year and see if anything at all happened. He told methat there was a good shot something would happen, but because mostof my hair loss was in the front that he couldn’t assure me that itwould get me any results I would really like.
I told him I still wanted to try ad hewas nice enough to let me.
And so my journey begins.
I am guessing right now my hair loss onthe Norwood chart is a 2.5 or a 3? (pictures below) I am trying to keep myexpectations low but my hopes high. Realistically I would be happy ifI could thicken up the center peninsula of hair that still extends tomy original hairline. Anything after that I will see as a gift.
