Hello everyone,
I am here to ask for help and to share a bit of my story.
I never had a lot of hair but after 21 yo my hair started to get thinner and started to shed a bit.
At 22 yo i started using a shampoo called Alpecin that suppose to help, didn't saw much difference (still using it).
At around 3 months ago i started shedding dramatically and it became very obvious that i needed something to stop it .
Some background, my dad is pretty bald, so i guess its genetic.
I went a few weeks ago at the dermatologist and he gave me Finasteride pills. Even that he didn't even mention the side effects, after searching on the internet and reading the pamphlet i understood that it can make serious permanent damage, i am still hesitant if to even start to take it.
I tried to use minoxidil but it made my head skin really irritated and because you cant really touch it after, it makes it looks like its wet and it only highlights the lack of hair.

Any ideas what i can do?
