my situation, i need veterain commentary , input

[Guest]

Ok I have been on xandrox 15% and propecia about 3 months, and on xandrox 5% for about 5 months.

I use pretty much every vitamin or pill that has something to do with skin or hair loss. Green Tea, hair vitamins, fish oil, etc. Before I started treatment I wes forming a NW2. I had a slick bald spot in my temple areas with no sign of life.

Now I regrew all my hair. All the thin dying hair is growing long like normal hair. I regrew all the hair I lost which is very surprising. Except that these hairs are so damn thin it still looks like im receding. All my non DHT proned hair became really thick and healthy.

But all the Genetic hair is still thin. I atleast revived them and they are growing long now but they are just so damn thin in my temples.

Examining my hair this morning when it was wet and slicked back it looks like I am programed to be a NW3 right now. (And im 17, depressing) i am probley like a Norwood.5 right now though, but the temple hair is thin and not to long.

However, I had slight chest hair growth a couple months ago. It was not really noticeable. Now I am growing a lot of chest hair while even on propecia. It surprises me cause It shouldnt be growing so fast cause I am using propecia which should be really lowering my dht levels.

My question is. Should I start talking propecia twice a day, or switch to duasteride? It looks like I am genetically proned to huge amounts of DHT.

( I had watery c*m as a side effect for like 2 weeks and it went away at week 3. My sex drive is still pretty high due to the propecia.)

What would you guys recommend? I mean my temples really filled in 100 percent. But the hair is thin. If it matured to normal sized hair I would have my perfect hair back.

Well, I can really only comment on the chest hair thing, you are 17 soon to be 18, chest hair is completely normal, some guys in high school have a chest full of hair, doubtful from the propecia....

Thanks for the imput jblig. Yea I am only like 17 and a half. A couple months ago I really didn't have to much chest hair. Now its comin in pretty fast which sucks. The average guy gets chest hair around like 18 i believe. Well i just commented on this cause i know chest hair comes from DHT. It comes around 18 i believe for the average male cause his DHT levels raise. I just thought the propecia should maybe slow it down at least cause it lowers dht levels.

I am almost positive I just have a lot of dht cause I had bad acne when I was like 15 and like full facail hair. When I was like 13 I already had a fully developed package and matured faster then the average guy. Since I havent had any sexual side effects and I still have a high sex drive while on propecia I think I might consider duasteride in a month or 2.

This sucks I have a expensive regimen. I gotta work a lot.

Also is taking propecia at night better? Arent dht levels there highest at night or at mid afternoon?

Well continue with your minoxidil treatments and hopefully that thin hair at the temples will thicken up. And don't worry about that chest hair its normal. It wasn't caused by anything except nature. I too matured early and had facial hair and all that early. I am almost 19 and just started propecia 1.5 months ago and minoxidil 5% 3 days ago. Hopefully my temples fill in also. Do you have any pics?

Nah. But my hair was a lot like Nick Lacheys hair in newlywed season 1. I was receding about the same amount and thinning in the temples like him but still had overall density but was thinning in front.

Badass there is hope. Its wierd the left temple hair that was thin and dying (it was about half an inch for months and would not grow) Matured to really thick normal hair. It really made a huge difference on my hairline.

Hairloss just sucks cause just the smallest amount of thickening and regrowth makes a HUGE difference on the overall look of your hair. I will keep you guys posted on my situation.
