This may be a stupid question, so please bear with me. I'm not really seriously considering a hair transplant right now, but I'm just thinking about the future. I'm 27 and a diffuse thinner. I've been losing my hair for about 2-3 years and it's getting worse pretty quickly.
My question is once you get an hair transplant, do you have to take Propecia/minoxidil or some kind of medication for the rest of your life? I tried propecia and had bad side effects from it, so I had to stop taking it. So am I screwed since I wouldn't be able to take it after a hair transplant?
Does the transplanted hair become susceptible to male pattern baldness just like the remaining hair? Because in that case, it seems like all a hair transplant does is buy you some more time. It doesn't seem like a permanent solution.
I just hope some day comes when I can forget about this damn hairloss completely. I even shaved my head recently, but I know that it's not a great look for me. Anyway, thanks for the help.
