The essentials: I'm 23.5 years old. I first noticed that my hair was thinning about five months ago, but in retrospect I realize that the process started a year or more prior to that.
To me, my hair is noticeably thinner. My scalp is grainy, itchy, and tingly all over (although sometimes less so, thanks to Nizoral and T-Gel). Others -- my parents, roommates, ex-girlfriend -- can't really tell, yet. I know because I've asked. I've been taking Propecia for 37 days now and it has had no effect. I've read everything on this forum dozens of times. I know about sheds, the Propecia patience period, etc.
And still I can't help but ask...is there anything to hope for? Is there a realistic chance that my hair loss will stop for a year, two years, five, 10? I know, I know...83%...two years...only 1% with visible hair loss...
But, come on. Right now, after a shower, my hair is more manageable than ever. I'd be so happy to keep what I have. But, come on. Can anyone out there offer comfort or assurance that everything *might* be ok.
I'm in NYC and would even gladly become a metrosexual in exchange for everlasting hair.
