I'm 23 years old and I love my sex life. I hope to one day marry my beautiful partner who is currently a really fit yoga instructor. We make love about 6 times a week and many times we can do it twice in a row (night and direct morning). Although I am heading towards NW2 I wouldn't dare take the plunge that many on here have. I love pleasing her and sex plays a key role in our relationship. I can't imagine the disappointment it would cause her if I don't have my morning wood. Not to mention the embarrassment. So I wanted genuine answers on here. Question1: How old are you and do you have a partner? 2. Describe your sexlife and hairlossr regimen.

What you select to share here on this hair loss forum is your business and I accept your right to exercise that privilege. Obviously we all know as members of this forum, that engaging in an open conversation about our hair loss regimen/experience is perfectly fine. We often stray off topic here, but more often than not when this occurs I believe we resume the root discussion with added insight . I realize many of us operate under alias' or pseudo names for all kinds of reasons. Regardless of this seemingly boundless license of anonymity, when it comes to soliciting/procuring information here or anywhere for that matter( relating to one or another's own intimate affairs), my instincts tell me that it's probably a good decision to set limits on how much you divulge. Bay, I'm sure you met no offence and no offence was taken and it quite possible may be that my attitude may seem odd or prudish to the majority of members here who are an intregral part of this diverse and supportive dynamic. I'm okay with that,:) but explicit details about my sexual activities and/or conquests are my own and my own alone. They are priceless to me and they are not for sale or for the public's whimsical gratification. On the subject of my present hair loss regimen I use 5% topical minoxidil 2X per day, nizoral shampoo 1% 3X per week, biotin 1000 mgs. 2X per day, zinc 25 mgs. 2X per day, Derma roll 1X per week (on week 7) will trial current method of DR for another 7 weeks possibly. Also I am considering starting on finasteride this year. I hope this was helpful. Thanx for sharing and all the best.

That's not true. I know countless bald men who are happily married. Everyone loves a bald hunk. Can people on finasteride or any type of 5 ar inhibitor describe their sex life and/or if it has changed since starting medication. This is my main concern.
bald = sexual death sentence

How is the biotin doing for you? Are you getting any sides like acne or bad skin?

I was on 1mg finasteride and got soft erections, but my ease of getting an erection and my desire remained the same. I took the dose down to .5mg and my hard erections came back. My desire and ease of erection are as good as before the finasteride.

I wonder why people who get sexual side effects on 1mg or 1.25mg and then abandon finasteride altogether don't just try a lower dose. I believe that .5mg and lower have been proven to be as effective as 5mg.

I thought a low dose doesn't matter long term? If I take .2 mg finasteride daily for the rest of my life. I am almost guaranteed to get side effects. It may not be 10 or 20 years from now. But maybe when I am 50.

I was on finasteride for 8 years. My first time having sex and most of my sex life was while I was on finasteride and I did peformed just fine. I've also had an extensive sex life post finasteride. The difference is minimal and keep in mind there are various other factors in one's life that has an effect on their sex life.

I didn't notice my morning woods until after I had quit finasteride. Whether that was because I started to look for it, or if it had gone away while I was on the stuff is uncertain. I will say that I could get an erection in the morning with my ex at time whether or not i was on the drug.

I think watching too much pornography and drinking too much alcohol or gaining too much weight will cause more detriment to your ability to achieve an erection or have interest in sex then finasteride would ever do. If that puts things into perspective.

p**rn definitely can affect your sex life. It has been proven and is common sense. Risking finasteride is up to you. If you are a Norwood 2 now, and she is still with you, I doubt she will leave you if you slowly go bald (that is if she really does love you). You are only 23, how old is she? If she is about the same age as you, she might leave you as people who are that young usually don't have relationships that last. It is just the way it goes as people change and discover what they do and don't like/want. So keeping your hair may help you keep her, but there's a high likelihood that it won't either, for other reasons than your looks. If anything you should talk to her about it and ask her if your hair is important to her.

A lot of bald men are married and/or have regular sex. Pretty much 50 percent of men are balding or bald (who are over 20). So to say bald men don't have sex is not true. It is like saying women who do not have bodies like models don't have sex. Men with a full head of hair is as common as women who have bodies that are 10s. Don't let society and media **** with your head.

I really wish there were more posts like this that encourage people to not try to save their hair out of the pressures of society. I would like to see there being a lot more PRO BALD posts such as this one. Should we continue to save our hair if its important to us? Absolutely! But at the same time we should be encouraging each other that it is also ok to go bald. Any man can get any woman with or without hair. There is much more to the chemistry and physical attraction between two people than just hair. Sometimes people like variety, even women, and will give us future baldies a go. There are rumors online that bald men are better at going down on women. I will advocate that being the truth and will live up that name as much as possible the day I'm fully bald, and until then!

Great post. If you go to a high end gym like Lifetime fitness, over 60% of the men there are balding, yet they have the hottest wifes/girlfriends I have ever seen. People on here don't realize that balding can even look better than a full set of hair. You just have to dress right, trim nice, and workout the correct way. I'm talking about getting a personal trainer and having an Olympian body. The gym my girlfriend works at is filled with bald hunks. It's incredible. They have more hair on their chest and legs, yet they look amazing.

Sounds like you have a bear fetish.

Bald = sexual death sentence. Sure you might be able to have sex with women but only the 2s or 3s. No 6+ girl will see you in a sexual way.

This.

Try living in a shallow city like Toronto where women pretty much only go for guys in suits and its GAME OVER for you.

To date I've noticed no discernible difference with biotin, good or bad regarding my hair integrity status. My nails may be growing faster. I'll continue taking it for another year maybe even up the dosage 2x per day. Take care.

Despite what you have seen in photos I've posted directly under a light in the bathroom mirror, I don't have very noticeable hairloss yet. Back when I did online dating I had asked various girls on their thoughts when it comes to bald men. The uglier and fatter the woman, the more important it was that their men have hair on their head. My theory is it is an insecurity they have, and to compensate for their insecurities they desire a man with hair. The prettier girls didn't seem to mind as much over the issue. In the end, most girls would prefer hair on their men. However it is not a deal breaker for many women, and you certainly don't need to settle for 2's and 3's :p

If you are bald, confident, and good looking you will probably be having more sex. You have it wrong. Finasteride = sex death sentence. At the end, hot women want a guy with a great body, handsome face, confidence, and above average sexual function. With finasteride you will end up with women who are 2s and 3s. Look up Johnny Sins, Kelly Slater, and Andre Agassi. All would look better with hair, but their confidence from being bald has led them to bag the hottest women in the world. I sense your trying to find justification for your finasteride use. Go to propeciacheerleaders.com for that.

Not true. I was born in Toronto and have been there many times. If you work downtown Toronto, you just have to suit up and stand tall and sharp. Your hair must be trimmed or buzzed if your losing a lot. None of those silly comb forwards and comb overs you get with propecia.

I've already had sex twice today with my hot girlfriend. As she puts it, women have so much societal pressure on them to look a certain way that they just don't have the energy to care much about a guy's hair. Good hair can be a plus, but not something that the right attitude and packaging doesn't more than overcome.

While this isn't true for all people, for the most part anyone you want to sleep with cares more about how you behave than how you look. Dress well and have a bit of confident swagger, and then be able to back it up by being clever and interesting and a good lover. Some women are shallow, yes, but so are most men. And some woman want nothing more than a hyper masculine bald man.

Most importantly, you will repulse women if you sulk about your hair loss and act impotent, because no woman wants a man who seems impotent. Also don't do combovers or anything like that because that projects shame and something to hide.

It's all about confidence. I am almost 40, divorced, and severely going bald to the point of just buzzing it completely because I look like a monk when the rest around my crown grows too long. My point is I still get laid by attractive women. I work out, eat ok but could eat better. Make the ladies laugh and you are in. Also doesn't hurt when you are a firefighter. :)

I recently started to try minoxidil and just ordered finasteride for the first time. It's not here yet but I've decided that the risk of side effects alone are not worth it. I'll ride the rogaine out with the nizoral and maybe some saw palmetto but not the finasteride. So some Indian pharmacy just got a $30 donation from me. Big deal. Definitely wont be in the sack with a woman anytime soon with moobs and junk that doesn't work. F'n with your hormonal makeup is serious stuff.

Bottom line is I'm comfortable in my own skin bald or not and so should everyone else be...

Excellent post mate. Not to scare you, but saw palmetto has caused side effects in people. The chances are way lower than with finasteride, but they are not clinically established so stop as soon as you get sides (although you prolly wont). I was in my gyms pool area today and I say a hot woman intimately massaging/playing with a bald guy's head (he had it low trimmed) in the Jacuzzi. Haha just made my day. With finasteride and minoxidil what are you expected right? A girl to play with that beautiful comb forward/comb over / comb side over. LOL

You are in NJ. Why don't you go to Walgreens do buy your finasteride! Walgreens has a Rx program that costs $20 annually. With that you can get a 3 month supply of proscar (cut into 4ths) for $10. Never buy Rx from Indian pharmacy's. You never know if it is going to be legitimate or not.

For those people that have been getting their so called finasteride from India. Don't be complaining about sides because chances are you aren't taking finasteride.
