Workout, eat well, and you will have better luck. This is just sad. I am also short, balding, and pale, although I have decent genetics we are on the same boat. The difference? I take care of myself and women notice it...
start with finasteride, talk to your doctor about it. Seeing hair in the shower is a classic sign of early onset of balding. Finasteride will help you keep what you have (which is still a lot) but the longer you wait the more hair you lose.
Dutasteride has already been shown to block up to 98% of the DHT, so basically there would be no point in taking more than the standard .5 dose. You should be taking dutasteride every day though.
Oh I'm sorry I didn't know! Its good not be in denial haha because then you can start treating in sooner. But of all of the things that can contribute to worsening hair loss, whey is one of the things you should be least worried about. You don't smoke or anything I'm assuming?
No, isolate or not that is 99.9% probably not the cause of your hair loss. Protein is good for the hair and helps build it stronger. It is more than likely genetic.
Use a hair loss supplement like one you find on amazon. Most people say these don't do anything for hair loss but they actually can help quite a bit by boosting circulation, reducing inflammation, protecting against free radicals and more. Also, make sure your are using hair loss friendly...
You should definitely be using a hair loss friendly shampoo! I use lipogaine and that really helps because it is made for hair loss and also keeps my scalp very moist. Make sure your circulation is adequate too, this helps a lot with scalp health because oxygen and nutrients are delivered.
Your hair is fine dude. Don't go with companies like hims or roman they throw finasteride prescriptions around like candy and they are not hair loss experts. If anything, if it gets any worse go to your doctor and see what they have to say.
