    Seeking advice - what to do?

    Have you tried Rogaine Foam? You may have an intolerance to PPG but not to Minoxidil. Finasteride / Dutasteride are your top choices. Don't expect too much regrowth from those alone. Holding ground is success.

    Is this male pattern baldness?

    There are two options: (1) you have naturally fine hair or (2) your hair is thinning and your hairline is receding. Hair popping up might be small miniaturized hair that are just getting weaker and weaker. I would go on the Big 3 if I were you.

    Most girls don't care about your hairloss

    My post was not clear. I could see how most straight women would not care that much if a straight guy loses his hair. But from my experience, gay guys care a lot if another guy loses his hair or not.

    about to start propecia for accutane hair loss

    Finasteride reduces DHT in the body. If your hair loss is from something else than a reaction to DHT, i don't see how finasteride will help. Don't you think?

    Most girls don't care about your hairloss

    Good for you. Well, let me tell you this. I am gay and from what I see, gay guys care a LOT about hair loss.

    Start of male pattern baldness?

    Hey S, It looks like a typical Norwood 2 to me. Maybe you have what people call here a "mature hairline", which is also what I have. I developed mine around 18 and it has basically stayed that way for the past 12 years. Maybe it is just the beginning of MBP and you will slowly progress to NW3...

    Is topical spironolactone useful with finasteride/duta?

    Hi everyone, Is it useful to apply topical spironolactone while being on finasteride or dutasteride, or is it redundant? Further, have any of you tried a spironolactone solution? I have long hair, which makes creams messier to apply. I have read that spironolactone solutions, but other people seem to say it's fine...

    [Microscope Pics] Miniaturized hair?

    Thanks a lot for your answers. Here are the pictures. But as I said, I've had the same hairline for the past 10-12 years. What I am worried about is miniaturization, that will only reflect in a receding hairline and a general thinning when it's too late. If my understanding is correct, it's all...

    Best spironolactone topical

    Hi everyone, I am interested in testing a spironolactone topical. I have several questions: Is spironolactone useful when coupled with finasteride or dutasteride? Is there a water-alcohol based topical? I have long hair and can't use the cream. Where would you advise me to buy such a topical? Thanks!

    about to start propecia for accutane hair loss

    What tells you that your hair loss is related to Accutane? If it is, what would be the mechanism? I doubt it would involve DHT. Finasteride inhibits DHT, so I am not sure how that would help. How old are you? Maybe it's just male pattern baldness kicking in, and it has nothing to do with Accutane.

    [Microscope Pics] Miniaturized hair?

    Hi everyone, This is my first message here, but I have been reading posts here for a while. I am a 30 year old white male. Like most men, I have a mature hairline. From what I see in pictures from when I was 20, I already had a mature hairline back then. I have a tiny mole on the corner of my...
