you are genuinely delusionalTo all those who think that Norwood 1 is not baldness, I will reveal an interesting fact: Norwood 1 is preceded by about two years of hair thinning, which you idiots simply did not notice. I was the only smart person on this damn forum who started treatment at stage zero instead of stage 2+.
I have said this many times and I will say it again: I hope you will ignore the first stages of cancer in the same way

You never had hairloss to begin with. You were maybe developing a mature hairline. Theres barely any difference in your pictures.

I just use the dropper to pour my dosage and then I drink it like a shot because it doesn't taste nice

I've stopped using Cpa, my skin was thin, dry and got wrinkled.
The complete deprivation of androgens isn't healthy on the long run.
Now i am using bicalutamid 25mg like KCMB does...
And E2 gel under foil each leg.. So I avoid Peaks and feel now very well.
Maybe it needs some weeks to restore the skin.....

temple regrowth after 3 months of E2 injections, spironolactone (I changed to bicalutamide a couple of weeks ago).
I'm also using finasteride and oral minoxidil, but I'd been on that treatment for over a year with good results before starting hrt.
What amazes me the most is that I don't have recession at the temples, just some very very slight thinning. My main concern is the diffuse thinning at the top; I have shown pictures of my hair before starting HRT, but I won't show them again atm, as there is not much to show yet. But judging by the regrowth at the temples, I hope to see a significant improvement in 3 more months.

regarding "manhood": My libido is not gone, but very different. I don't get random erections anymore, but if I'm "in the mood" it feels awesome, and works just like before. The only sexual downside I see so far is the lack of sperm.

Relax mate, give it a chance to work. You’ll likely loose ground first.. Generally a good sign that the drugs are actually working. Especially with 10mg minoxidil. I lost ground also before I saved my hair.. give the drugs at least 6months to work mate. Don’t let it consume your life mate get out in the sun and enjoy life. No doubt you’ll be happy with your hair in 6month/1year with those drugs. Cheers
Im using oral minoxidil since 1 year. Dutasteride since 5 years and Ive been loosing ground on it.
I went from Norwood 1 to Norwood 4 in 5 years while using Dutasteride...
Only Bicalutamide is a drug that im using since 1 month and Its my last hope

Spend another 5 years on Dutasteride, Minoxidil and Bica and you won't have any hair at all. The advisors in this thread will tell you to give the drugs more time, 6-12 months, so it's not that far from reality lol.
And you will make this survival bias and you will continue to hope.

Treating hair loss with HRT, HRT cycles will eventually lead to testicular atrophy and inability to produce your own T, forcing you to either stay on HRT forever or use T injections. I will try testing RU between cycles and see if it will support my baldness. Hope it's not too expensive...
Now I am read information about post-cycle therapy, which is used by bodybuilders after using steroids. According to the information I have, Clomid can help restore T levels and turn on your testicles after a course of estradiol, but each time it will work worse, and eventually, sooner or later, the testicles will die.
So the victims are quite serious, and we need a good drug to support. But if the choice comes between testicles and hair, I will choose the latter and be ready to sacrifice my T for the sake of hair, without which my whole image, my whole appearance is destroyed.
People here think I'm promoting something, but in fact, I always understood that HRT is a remedy for the desperate, who put hair above all else.

one anecdotal case like yours doesn't define what others will experience. For many with aggressive baldness bica is more than enough, specially when used with oral minoxidil and of course a 5ar-inhibitor. And yes, 6 months is the least you should give to a treatment before discarding it.
