[NeedHelp]

Hey Trucking10

here is a way you can find out. Take a white printer paper and vigerously rub your head with your hands until hair fall on the paper. Than look at the hairs on the paper if they are all the same thickness than it is Telogen Effluvium but if there is thinning hairs to almost dead hairs than it is male pattern baldness. Look at my pics http://photos.yahoo.com/rags2377 it is the same exact thing as yours and I went to the Doctor who said it is not male pattern baldness than one said it is and so on.... so in conclusion they really dont know sh*t and i would say if you can afford it get on propecia.... IT WONT HURT.

In fact having seen "Need Helps" hair pics before... i thought it was the same guy... yep you two are in the same boat...

I agree i think alot of Docs dont really know when it comes to hairloss... there's general signs and i think you both realistically have male pattern baldness. Proscar all the way...

 

[truking10]

thanks for the reply guys... i think im gonna head down to mexico pick up a 6 months supply of propecia try it for a year and see what happens ...cant hurt right....anything else you guys suggest using with propecia ??

 

[DontWannaBeLikeMike]

I went to mexico and bought proscar from there. It cost me like 50-55 bucks.

 

[itchy080]

my hair is the same exact, except without as much drasticness on the side
im pretty sur ei have male pattern baldness abbout 8 months inot propecia my hair turned dead and i got 2 haircuts and it was gone, still waitin for it to come back...now into month 12-13, 2 months on monix in the front and 3 with nizoral, gonna order some fluridil soon

 

[gonna_win]

er dude? You don't have male pattern baldness

 

[truking10]

So u guys dont think i have mbp ???????? should i use treatments ??

 

[Greg1]

That I'm aware of, Telogen Effluvium can be caused by having too much of a stressload and not knowing how to respond to it. Do you have allot on your plate right now? A GP probably is NOT the kind of Doctor that you need to check with about this. The proper diagnosis depends on matching up with the proper Doctor and his/her qualifications.

 

[truking10]

well yea i mean i have gone through alot of phsycological problems, with stress,anxitey and depression for the last year which i bring on my self. 7 months ago i thought i had cancer so that was about 2 months of torture. And since then i become some what of a hypochondriat or however you spell it. But ive seen a specialist at UCLA and he thought i have Telogen Effluvium, then i got a free consltation at a hair transplant place and by using a video microscope, it looked like my hair on the sides was more dense then my top and healthier??? make any sense ...any ideas from now on ?

 

[Lizzad]

er dude? You don't have male pattern baldness

 

[truking10]

lizzard do u agree ...anyone else think i dont have male pattern baldness?? i appreciate all the feedback

Wow! Let me first say that I'm amazed that the free consultation didn't recommend that you get a hair transplant It sounds like how you're responding to the stress in your life is taking it's toll...on your hair

 

[wastingpenguins]

I disagree with everyone here. From the looks of the pictures, I'd say you have male pattern baldness, just like all of us.

Luckily, things arent' too bad yet. Get on the proven treatments, and soon.

 

[mark16v]

sorry guys - forgive me but what is Telogen Effluvium?

 

[Cornholio]

Telogen Effluvium = teleogen effluvium = shedding

hair grows for many months then sheds... usually this is random and unnoticable but with stressors (severe stress, medical illness, medication side effect, sudden weight loss....) hairs shed as a group, called Telogen Effluvium. as the follicle isnt damaged it should grow back if it is due to Telogen Effluvium. Telogen Effluvium may be very diffuse, while male pattern baldness is usually crown, temples, vertex.
