17 years old, all help appreciated

I'm really far gone guys.

My hair is see through now. My hairline is definitely a Norwood 3 or more. My crown is thinned out incredibly.

I'm so damn angry about this. I want to do finasteride, I do. I just can't face the brain fog and developmental problems. Plus now my girlfriend is telling me my erections are harder (she didn't know I quit the medication before she told me), so I'd face softer erections on it.

Is The Mentalist right? Is an hair transplant out of the question for me? I'm going to be fully NW6 or 7 by my second or third year of college at this rate, that isn't an exaggeration. Is it really just a thin layer of hairs on your head, if you're not rich?

Finasteride will screw me up in the long run, every personal account, scientific analysis, and personal gut-sense tells me this is almost an undeniably factual statement. Is my life with hair just done for already?

Ok, you gotta calm down bro. Take a deep breath, go for a run, get your mind off of it. Turn your dad and bro into a support group about it. They went through the same thing! There are a lot of options out there.

As far as spironolactone goes, I have had zero success with my hairline, and I have been on it for about 8 months. I'd go with a higher strength minoxidil (15%). It was banned in January, but use the site hair-king.com , they sell 10 and 15%. This stuff works great for me. I saw consistently good results for over 2 years with it. Costs a little more, but they mail it to u discretely, and my gf has no clue what it is once I take off the label.

Mix up the shampoos. Revivogen makes a crappy hair formula, but the shampoo/conditioner does great on my off days of nizoral. I use regenepure shampoo and conditioner now instead of nizoral. It takes a while to lather but makes my scalp feel fresh. The best thing u can do is make your scalp as healthy as possible (I'm starting to sound like a noitall about now. Trust me I'm a pharmacist)


Last thing, get hairomega. Take 2 in the morning and 2 in evening. Makes your hair look healthier and stronger, and it may block some dht

If you look under light in some cases, I'm basically a Norwood 6 too. Someone earlier said I'm a receder and not a diffuser, but I'm fairly certain I'm both receding and thinning excessively all over the top and crown and front.

How do you guys obtain spironolactone? From this site, or where?
Or topical finasteride? If either are viable, and not ridiculously priced (I only have one job, and I pay for my own gas, and gym membership), then I'll definitely give them a shot.
