Just started to notice a considerable amount of loss after having a haircut, I'm 25 and I've had extremely thick hair for my entire life (hairdresser even remarked, "at least you'll never have to worry about losing your hair" :<). I was prescribed Nizoral shampoo for dandruff a month or so ago, is it entirely true that ketaconozole can help slow down hair loss? Anyway, I use it twice a week currently and I've been thinking of taking Finasteride but obviously there are some potentially debilitating side effects. In retrospect, I first experienced the initial effects of recession approximately two years ago when a friend pulled an unusually long strand of hair (almost down to my brow) from my scalp, but I never thought anything of it. Considering it was relatively full and thick just two years ago, how quickly should I expect it to advance? Also, is Finasteride really worth it? Am I likely to experience noticeably slower hair loss and/or hair regrowth? What are your experiences with it, and do you regret your choice?
One pic is with the hair pulled out of the way to show recession, the other is how I usually wear it.
My father is 52 and he has a small bald spot and thinning with a slightly recessed hairline, my grandfather is more or less bald.
