Need hair advice please (Pics)

[JohnnyGobbs]

Hi, I'm 24 and have been lurking on here for a few months. I've always had really thick hair and a really good hairline. I have my grandfathers hair and he's 90 and is probably only like a nw3. Hairdressers would always say that I'd never go bald. Well about 2 years ago, I had a extremely bad year and suffered a mental breakdown. I was really stressed out that year and I think I might have triggered some male pattern baldness or telogen effluvium. I noticed my hair thinning in various parts and my hairline has receded over the past two years. So I'm putting a bunch of pics up for some opinions. I really don't want to do any topicals but i'd take propecia to hopefully grow some hair back or make the thinner hairs thicker again if I have to. I really need my hair, I don't look right with a shaved head so me not having my hair is not an option. Also, I've noticed that lots of the hairs that fall out that I found on the floor or bed or wherever are very short like 1/2 of an inch but my hair is like 5 inches long, anyone know what's up with that? Thanks in advance for the replies.

get on some propecia and minoxidil and chuck in nizoral for some fun

 

[So]

It could be stress related.

It is proposed that all hair loss is related somewhere in the chain to stress. Though there are many who would argue otherwise.

Begin a regime. Propecia. I wouldn't add anything else like minoxidil since its superficial.

You seem the type that might get stressed far to easy, so you really need to learn how to destress, deep relaxation, meditation and to get in touch with you alpha mind.

Any half assed attempt at the above and you'll be back here asking for more help.

Yeah I would just try the propecia thing for a while. Don't use minoxidil yet because in my experience it's a little more risky. Also make sure that you use a quality shampoo and conditioner for a healthy scalp.

 

[silkeysmooth]

Propecia and Nizoral.

hah, no way. I ain't going out like that.


So I should start taking propecia? I also have been hearing some things about avodart being really effective. Is this true or bs? Also, where can I get propecia at online? I don't mind buying generic stuff (proscar right?) I also don't mind buying propecia either though. I just want the proper dosage and quality stuff. If the generic stuff is the same quality but cheaper, then obviously i'd go with the generic.

duts are stronger but has more possibility of getting sides.
i think people go with finasteride first and then switch to dutasteride if finasteride doesnt work.
go to unitedpharmacies.com or inhousepharmacies.com

get fincar (generic stuff) and cut it into pieces. that way you can save your money.

but just go bald like a man!!! forget all that drug treatments
go bald!

Is fincar generic propecia? How many pieces do you cut them into? What is the dosage? Thanks

 

[templemonk]

fincar = generic proscar
finpecia = generic propecia

fincar and proscar are 5mg fins
recommended dosage is 1mg a day
but people usually cut it into 4 pieces which comesout to be 1.25mg
you should start taking 1mg or 1.25mg and lower the dose if you get sides. go get a pill cutter from your local drug store its about 5 bux.
