Hi... Long time lurker here. Went for a hair transplant consultation about a month ago and looking for some advice about minoxidil. I am slightly thinning in the crown and mid-section but there are no gaps and it wouldn't be noticeable to people unless they were to get really close and move my hair around, but I am receding from the front, probably back about 1cm from my hairline at its best and a bit thinner at the temples, forever I am 38 years old...
At my hair transplant consultation it was suggested 4500 hairs would be needed to fix the front, more than I would have thought but not hugely so. Currently there are no gaps at the crown or in the middle so they wouldn't do anything there but they did advise me to start minoxidil. After reading mixed reviews on this forum about starting minoxidil I thought I would gather some opinions.... So that's what I'm after... They also recommended Saw Palmetto as a supplement which I haven't seen a lot of discussion on
Any advice is appreciated, I will continue to read and might start another couple of posts to explore the best surgeons
Thanks
