balding/ and /finasteride/ general.
Sticky: http://tuxbell.com/index.php/Balding

Reminder that if you can clearly see your scalp when your hair is wet, your hair is going!

Holy trinity:
Tabs: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finasteride
Lotion: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minoxidil
Shampoo: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ketoconazole

Finasteride is a 5-alpha reductase inhibitor that prevents free T from being converted to DHT, a byproduct of testosterone that serves no purpose after puberty but to choke out your hair follicles and make them thin out and die, this is called androgenic alopecia.
Fin mostly prevents your hair from getting any worse, mild regrowth is expected, though some people see a significant recovery on fin alone. Can be taken orally or topically.

Minoxidil (liquid and tabs) is a vasodialator that opens potassium channels and widens blood vessels bringing nutrients to your hair follicles, stimulating hair follicles into thickening, accelerating growth and elongating the growth phase. Min is taken with fin to restore your hair to it's original hairline, thickness and vigor when hair loss is caught early enough, (pre-NW2). Can be taken orally or topically.

Ketoconazole is an anti-androgen and antifungal that inhibits DHT on the scalp and used to treat fungal infections of the scalp that may be making your hair loss worse such as seborrheic dermatitis, a condition where you exhibit severe greasy, flaky large dandruff flakes with dried yellow crystals (blood plasma) embedded in the scalp. Some people may only have traction alopecia (hair loss from scratching or friction), but it will not cure androgenic alopecia alone. Can only be taken topically.

I currently have PFS, going on finasteride was the worst mistake I ever made.
I was on it for a year, and saw my sex drive crash, erectile dysfunction at age 19, severe anxiety disorder, can't get a nut out to save my life either. My hair didn't stop falling out to boot.
For reference I'm 25 now and I still have the sexual side effects, still have little to no chest/facial hair which I also attribute to the fin.
What ended up saving my hairline was RU-58841, look it up and order some. Stay the fuck away from finasteride unless you wanna throw away your youthful virility forever

Getting your hair wet shows your true hair volume, no amount of styling tricks or hair products can hide your lack of hair density when it's wet.
This is how you can spot diffuse thinning, which is the worst kind because by the time it gets bad enough to be noticeable with dry hair the damage is already done.

I'm getting a HT next year in febraurary but fuck man, it's gonna be so emabrassing. I'll have to wear a hat to lectures and never take it off for the whole semester, basically. Even when hanging out. I could, in theory, change the date right before summer break so I'd have some time to lay low during the redness phases but I don't wanna wait 6 months more (plus recovery period) to get my hairline back. Any thoughts? Any anons here know if you can hide the redness with makeup? How did people react to your HT, if you had one?
>>
>>18248396
Buzz it down and stop being ashamed for balding.
>>
>>18248396
see how far you can get with fin and oral min alone before splurging for the HT, you're going to need at least 6 months of fin before getting the hair transplant anyway, and then you need to stay on it indefinitely or it will fail.

Anyone here deal with hair loss related to hypothyroidism?

Yeah I've been on dut for a month (and fin for the three months before) and minox (first topical and now oral) and I've seen astonishing results with no sides, but the hairline isn't really coming back fully and I know this is the case for most people. If only I had started sooner. I've scheduled my HT already as the doctor had a quite long queue, but It'll be 9 months on medical treatment when I'll finally get it.
>>18248409
If you're fine with living your only life being "objectively" worse looking then go for it. As much as you can accept yourself (which admittedly is not my case lmao) other people, especially of the opposite sex, won't be so willing.

I understand but the incidence is low. it's no worse than ,most meds. it's important you stay calm there's a stud ythat shows there's 3x likelyhood to get "side fefcets" because the patients was told abou thtem male virility can be very psychological.

>>
>>18248568
>Is there any alternative steps or anything else?
If you have male pattern baldness, no. Blocking dht with fin or dut is the only tried and true way of stopping and reversing hair loss. Consult your derm before taking fin and you have nothing to worry about.
>>
>>18248568
take the pills and say goodbye to your dick, bud
>>
>>18248568
You can use minoxidil, which has a different mechanism of action and actually stimulates hair growth (people use it to thicken eyebrows or beard growth). Topical is over the counter but kind of annoying to use every single day for as long as you want to keep your hair, oral is by prescription and bypasses the non-response issue but can have serious non-sexual side effects
>>
>>18248587
Yes but minoxidil doesn’t stop the androgens responsible for hairloss. So while minoxidil can stimulate hair growth, it doesn’t treat the underlying condition and you will continue losing hair.
>>
Topical liquid minoxidil is food safe (vape juice, ethanol and water) and can be taken orally, 1 drop (0.025ml) = 1.25mg oral minoxidil, this doesn't apply to the foam version btw.
>>
>>18248170
Don't fuck around with finasteride. PFS is the tip of the iceberg. Give it a few more years and the whole scandal will unfold.

obsessively trying not to lose your hair is the least fashionable thing i can think of. pathetic
>>
No one wants to hear it but just get a fucking wig. I bought one about 3 years ago for $500. It's synthetic but you can't even tell, hence the price tag. I've been on dating apps and get plenty of likes and matches and never been told I'm wearing a wig. Before you ask about wind blowing it off, it's never happened to me and I've been to Six Flags and rode roller coasters with it on. You just have to find a way to hold it down. For me it was ghost bond blue on the forehead part of it and hair pins in the back connecting my wig to my real hair underneath.

Hop on fin now. Be cautious about min. Consider ketoconazole and some peptides/caffeine hair density serums that are available. None will match min for efficacy but they're way easier on your system.
>>
>>18248535
You still have pretty good coverage and density but it is starting to recede and 19 is relatively young, so you need to act soon.
If you can halt it where it is for most of your 20s you're golden, and you don't need to like lay awake panicking while you wait to get a fin script, but you should act soon.
t. started balding at 20 and did shit about it until 24 (will regret it for life).
>>
>>18248455
Whatever you do just avoid fin. It might ruin your life like it ruined mine and so many others. Look into alternatives or wait for stem cell hair transplants to hit the market in 4-5 years.

It's amazing how they practically age backwards once the hair is added to the top of the scalp, almost immediately they go from 32 to 25.

>hypochondriac
Same boat as me then. Started balding at 26, I'm 30 now at Norwood 3 and I'm still not taking pills because every time I get some chest pain or anything I immediately assume I have cancer or other issues. If I took fin my life would become anxiety hell.
Have you checked your uncles, grandfathers, father etc. to see how much their hairline receded? I got massive hairloss the first 2 years but then it kinda stabilized and I noticed most of my uncles are also stuck in Norwood 3 despite being 20 years older than me.

All I can say is, start taking pictures of your hairline every month, in the same spot and with the same lighting so you can better track if you're actually balding or it's just your hairline maturing. Don't use topical minoxidil just by itself, it's not only a massive pain to apply daily but also doesn't treat the root cause so you're only prolonging the inevitable. And talk with a doctor first before taking finasteride if you're going down that path, 19 feels a bit early to be taking hormone suppressants IMO.
>>

Fin and oral minoxidil.

>>18248821
Would a combination of fin, min and crack reverse my hairloss?
>>
I started to notice that my hair was thinning at 20, went to a dermatologist and he give me fin 1mg/eod.
I was young and retarded, didn't want to go bald so I just took it, a week after my dick went limp.
I stopped the drug and then crashed even worse, depression and insanity. I had 99% of my hair intact but I shaved it and wore a fucking wig, I literally went borderline insane for two years.
It took me five for the health problems to mostly go away, the thing that helped was insanely strict diet, excercise and a buch of herb rotations to snap back my hormones. I found a lot of forums online of poeple who got PFS trying different protocols and stuff, mostly suicidal incel-tier communities, the pattern that I see is that if you're extremely healty and push your hormones it can get better in 3-5 years.

To this day I still have prostate problems, and was by far the worst experience of my life.

DO NOT TAKE IT.
finasteride is fucking poison.

Massive doses of copium. I'm saving up money for a transplant in a few years, and I'm hoping that my hairline stabilizes at Norwood 3.5 at most and I won't need finasteride, since none of my relatives have ever reached George Costanza levels of baldness.
Other than that I'm also trying to start a business so I can become rich enough that maybe I won't care anymore.
Besides I'm super stressed all the time right now anyway so it probably wouldn't be a good moment, any health issues that might arise I'll just blame them on fin, so for now I just want to get some income coming and live comfortably and be more relaxed before I start thinking about it. (Might be too late at that point but oh well.)

Do you make predictions about your hair based on your family balding history?

In my case I can't make many assumptions because, my dad died young, grandfather from mom's side died in his 50s but I don't know how he looked like because he died as a crackhead and didn't have contact with the rest of the family.
From my dad's family side, grandfather died in his 60s with a good hairline but a heavily thinning crown, my uncles seem to be in the same situation, no hairline recession at all but a very slowly thinning crown over decades.
As for myself I'm 32 and hair seems fine, almost no hairline recession but crown is definitely thinner than the rest of my head, it has not gotten much worse since I was 17. I remember being made aware of my crown situation by a woman who told me I was going to go bald in 5 years.
The one time I legit believed I was going to go bald was when I was like 22 and got a nasty case of dandruff. Inflammation, flakes and sores all over my head made a lot of my hair fall out and my crown was in critical condition, I was ready to shave it off when I decided to just try head and shoulders shampoo which fixed it in like 2 weeks and my hair regrew
>>
>>18249071

>>18249287
Hair loss and regrowth is literally astrology, just pre-emptively get on finasteride if you suspect you are losing hair. As a man you probably are based on statistics. It's not possible to tell you are losing hair based on one low quality picture unless you have an actual bald spot already.
Your hair loss can be slow or fast, it can be only be noticeable on your hairline or all over, it can happen to you young or old, you can respond to medication or not, or maybe only for a while...
All we know is that it has to do with some DHT fuckery that gets activated in your body by the little hair demons randomly one day like a fucking bomb

Snap out of it, it's in your head. And get back on Finasteride.

>>18249430
I had nipple sensitivity and grew a lump on my left nipple 6 months in when I started taking fin around 2 years ago, and I did something really stupid and took nolvadex for about a month and it kept shrinking and never came back. I’m on dut now and all is good, but goddamn man nolvadex really does give you limp dick. SERMs and AIs are dangerous as fuck and not to be messed with. I don’t know to what extent DIM mimics their mechanisms of action, so do your research and be careful.

You're an insane person. Take a pill for that.

>>18250003
the hairline around the temples is just the most sensitive to dht and usually the first area to go, so it typically has a weaker response to meds. if you compare male vs female hairlines, even guys who aren't actually balding will typically have a more masculine square hairline vs the rounded one that women and a lot of children have. sometimes you'll see "norwood 0" used to refer to that specifically

What's the start date on that counter? Because fin has been available for more than 30 years and probably more then a hundred million men have taken it. I'm already being generous by not asking how they know those suicides were because of fin.
Shit, in 2023 USA alone, more than one million men were taking it. That's from one year in one country.

That's the only downside. You can make it to where it doesn't fall off during sex but if you ever get into a long lasting relationship with someone they're eventually going to question why your hair hasn't grown. If they really loved you, they'll stay with you knowing you wear a wig. I mean women are allowed to wear makeup.
>>
>>18250931
yes but it's different for women because they're expected to wear makeup and they look ugly without it unless they're naturally beautiful and most women are not, men are not expected to do anything about their appearance, they're supposed to suffer
>>
It would seem I am a hyperresponder to oral min. Crazy progress everywhere. temples, hairline, and crown are noticeably better, not to mention new growth in my eyebrows, beard, legs, arms.
and Im only two months in, including a rough shedding period at the start.

I know Im incredibly lucky and I wont ever forget it.
Its wild to think how slow this journey was. I heard about these drugs in 2020, put it off for 2 years, tried fin only for 2023 and the first half of 2024, and now finally added oral min. Pretty much a consequence of the unreliability of all online sources. At some point with these drugs, you have to accept that youre gambling on an NIH pubmed study + the assurances of some rando on /fit/.

I can now buy a discrete pill fob and take this shit for the rest of my life. In the 10 year study, 113 out of 118 men chose to continue taking fin after the study concluded, so Im pretty sure these results will last

Also to any first timers reading this: DONT USE HIMS OR KEEPS. Get a prescription from a dermatologist, buy a goodrx gold account, and use the discount at CVS. These drugs will probably cost me $3-4k over the next ten years. Im willing to pay that much for hair

Brother its like the placebo effect, you aren't actually having it. I started a new anxiety med two weeks after Finn and it immediately came back.

>Brother its like the placebo effect,
Negative placebo effects are called Nocebos, and ED, depression, and brain fog are among the easiest symptoms to trigger via Nocebo.
I suspect that the PFS retards know this and are trying to give balding young men anxiety to trigger it.
>>
>>18249674
>>18251239
>>18251252
My ex-gf had a low libido, so when I started balding and saw ED as a side effect of dutasteride, it seemed convenient for me at that moment.
So I went on dut and the opposite happened. I'm getting morning wood like back in my teens, my boners could cut crush diamonds and my sex drive started doing overtime.
Long story short, that relationship didn't last lol, but at least I have a full head of hair again.

>>18249430
1 pill side effects are nocebo but the gyno and ejaculatory changes are very much real. Got gyno and starting cumming water and yellow jelly strings a month into fin. I already had slight pubertal gyno that really didnt bother me but now my nips get noticeably puffy when its warm. The cum returned to normal within after 3 months (the time it takes for new sperm to spawn) so no need to worry about that. Gyno is probably the only legit permanent side effect you can have. It can be removed surgically but will probably regrow if keep using fin since the full gland isn't removed to prevent inverse nipples and the hormonal environment that caused it still in all likelihood persists.

How does finasteride affect you genetically? Do we know what triggers the mutations exactly? Is it safe to conceive a child whilst on finasteride?
>>
>>18251936
how does sitting for 10 minutes affect you genetically? Yes, it's safe to conceive a child on finasteride as long as the mother doesn't touch(a split not a intact) or take the pill. Ask Drumpf.
>>
>>18251936
DHT is used in the production of sperm, so you should stop using Finn for 2-3 months before you try to have a kid, and then obviously you can go right back on it.

It only has that affect while its in your system and it takes 2-3 months to "fully" flush out so you have 0% risk associated to it after that time. Good luck having a kid if that's your goal.
>>
>>18251263
I experienced the same thing man. I kept thinking "it won't happen to me", but guess what? It did. I guess in the end it didn't really matter.

I used to love Nizoral for both dandruff and to keep my scalp not itchy. After around two years it doesn't seem to be as helpful. Will going up to 2% help? Are there any downsides?

I read that your scalp can get accustom to Nizoral making it less effective. What would you use instead?
>>
>>18252139
Maybe I don't know, I just wanted to chime in that my scalp itchiness never went away with nizoral, I ended up buying a shampoo which claims to have no sulfates and my itchiness went away almost immediately.

Since then I've taken 200mg DIM for 2 days and I think sensation is 90% gone. I still have some sensitivity when I walk.
I took another pill, 0.5 mg fin this time, and it's ok.
I think for the time being I will stick with 0.5mg fin EOD and take DIM when I feel worse with sides.

>>
>>18252531
NTA but it's an important question if you want to decide to upgrade to dutasteride. I'm kind of in the same boat. Slow diffuse thinning. 10 months in and it's not clear if it works.
>>
>>18252682

When I started fin I started getting whiteheads again, nothing too bad, like 1 a week, it also made me incredibly horny the first few weeks.
It's really hard to tell otherwise until at least 6 months in, but fin made my constant hair fall stop and made my itchy scalp go away too if you want to believe in the DHT itch theory.
Of course now I'm shedding all the time after ramping up to 10mg oral min, the regrowth is noticeable after just a month though, and my overall density has gotten much better, far better than anything 8 months of fin did.

I had a few other effects after starting fin, like lower resting blood pressure (135 to 119 systolic) and less gross sebum buildup on my face overall.
I think my skin is clearer and smoother than before starting fin but that could just be me putting more effort into my appearance now.

This is so sad to read. For everyone on the fence let me make it very clear for you: DO NOT TAKE FINASTERIDE.
I repeat: DO NOT TAKE FINASTERIDE.
This is a drug made by the same pharma companies that poisoned billions with the vaccine. They thrive on making you sick and miserable with poison.
The solution is so simple people.
DO NOT EAT SEED OILS.
GET 1 HOUR OF SUN A DAY.
ADD HONEY TO EVERY MEAL.
COOK IN ANIMAL FATS.
Live a natural life and you WILL have a full head of natural, beautiful hair. Do not take drugs that will make you sick. Minoxidil is the same kind of poison. Be healthy!

you have a 1 in 500 chance of experiencing major side effects (penile shrinking, erectile dysfunction) which are irreversible.
this approximate rate does not include minor side effects such as rashes.
i'm on fin and have no side effects but you're a fucking shill, liar, monster if you're blindly telling people to go on fin without telling them about the risks beforehand. people like you or maybe the one who convinced you its safe and has no side effects originally should put a bullet in your mouth.
this information is not difficult to find or arcane.

I've had prolonged issues with seborrheic dermatitis since 18, around when I noticed myself shedding more than I had before. Oily flakes, red patches, excess sebum, etc. Hair seemed like it went through phases of shedding and regrowth, all in the areas affected most by the condition. I wanted to say it was some product I was using or the frequency of washing my hair maybe, so on and off I'd cycle through new products or try nopoo type pseudry, nothing improved it. Just figured I'd have to live with it.

Come to now, I'm almost 30, and for the first time I'm noticing some apparent thinning accompanied by more intense bouts of my skin condition. How common is this sort of thing with male hair loss? Is my issue just the dermatitis? Thyroid shit? For those doubting I can commonly scrape oily gunk from my scalp under my finger nail even just three days after a wash and I'm not using low quality products.
>>
>>18253147
>even just three days after a wash
You need to wash your hair every day with shampoo. The exact thing happened to me. I was on no-poo due to shilling back in 2015 and somehow got a nasty dandruff problem. Giant flakes, gunk, crust, my head was on fire all dayetc. My hair started falling out after like a month. Strated with ketoconazole every couple of days then with Head and Shoulders every day. My dandruff was cleared for good.
Not sure what is the active ingredient in head and shoulders that actually works but it works.

I'm on Fin for a few years

It seems to be working for me since any baldness has been halted

This thread is spooking me though. Why shouldn't I use it? Don't experience any sexual dysfunction so far
>>
>>18253646
You have a 2-3% chance of developing ED while using fin. The cure if that happens is to reduce or space out your dosage, or for some men, stop taking it entirely.
Don't take my word for it, the PFS schizo posted a meta-analysis outlining the side effect profile. There is no evidence for PFS. There is a 2-3% chance of reversible ED, which since you have been on it for a few years, you are not going to get, it would have happened by now.

its just the dude who spams hairy white women, interracial porn, white demoralization posts and schizophrenic rants about the nephilim in other threads who does this.
he's an insane person(s) who tries to shut down any discussion of the potential side effects of fin.
probably from shareblue. he's been spamming /fa/ with garbage posts for 40 hours i've counted the last 4 days. long shifts, probably multiple people.

i've been trolling him and ruining his little shill campaign in every other thread but i'm not balding so i don't read this one. decided to check in on it and sure enough the schizo is in here trying to convince you guys there's absolutely no risks to taking quasi-troon meds. i'm sure he's aware most of the readership are white males.
once you pick up on the fact its the same guy with the same writing style and the same schizotypial tells in his posts you can go thread to thread and call him out like i just did here.

if he hates white men and wants them to die and be bred out like he constantly says, why would he be so invested in giving you guys medical help? he doesn't have your best interests in mind. he hopes you kill yourself or troon out because of fin side effects.
i mean just look at this thread he tried to call me a bald coper and this and that.
posted my hairline nah i just want what's best for my brothers in christ on here.
>>
check out some of the threads on the catalogue you might not ordinarily read. you'll see plenty of examples of me calling this same schizo who's in here shilling fin out and his insane ramblings.

https://warosu.org/fa/?task=search&ghost=false&search_text=nephilim
every thread here has him in it. the posts containing nephilim will either be his schizo ramblings or my call-outs of them.

be weary of shills actblue and many other similar organizations have massive budgets to shill seemingly meaningless and benign things on 4chan. google "mining the chans" and "cointelpro" if you don't know how these niggers have historically operated. they're so prolific online even re dd it bans them on sight globally. but on 4chan they have janny positions.

be weary of the fin shill.
he's an honest to god yakub and nation of islam tier schizo who hates white, latino etc people and openly posts about how he wants your races to die.
finasteride's a good thing but there are very real risks and side effects which much be weighed.
but this goal is to stifle all conversation of its side effects so he can shill it and get his giddies off to the 2% of guys who's dicks shrink then brain themselves.
its only 2% goy.
t. took fin no problem but holy shit this dude's advice is "millstone around the neck" tier.

There's definitely a cure, but men don't and shouldn't want to tank their androgens to keep hair loss away.

Been on oral Fin and Min for 5 months now and have seen no improvements. In fact, the thinning seems to have sped up while on it.

No side effects or anything so I'll stick with it but what's the likelihood that it just hasn't started being effective yet? I know some say it can take around 6 months to see results but I imagine that's on the upper end of the average, no?

Idk I'm just getting nervous. I've only noticed the thinning within the past year but it feels like it's been progressing rapidly ever since. With how fucked everything else in my life already is I genuinely can't afford to lose my hair.

Absolutely. There are people who have memed themselves into thinking they are pregnant, even going so far as getting a baby bump and matching hormone levels. Mouth dryness is also very vague, can be caused by a lot of things and isn’t even a common side effect for finasteride. Not to mention that one week is too short to experience any effect, side or not. You are probably still at baseline.
>>
>>18253945
Finasteride is a prescription drug and you should not go around shilling it like it's candy. Leave it to real doctors to decide if people should consider it or not, don't mess with people's health like that.
>>
>>18253952
So include in the OP "consult with a doctor as there is risk of adverse effects".

i'm trying to tell you guys
the fin shill is a literal nation of islam yakub schizo who believes white people are the nephilims
tricking white men into taking dick shrinking quasi tranny pills is his way to get back at white people
he spends 8-12 hours every single day of his life spamming anti white stuff on /fa/ /fit/ and /pol/
people on here aren't aware of him on /fa/ yet but on the other boards they are
if you read other threads on the board you'd know what you're dealing with

I was going a bit of reading about AHAs used in skincare, and I read that Glycolic acid sends a signal to the dermis resembling that of an injury signal, which triggers collagen production and other growth factors. I'm wondering if maybe I should expand my weekly exfoliation to my scalp? Maybe it will have an effect similar to microneedling. Has anybody tried this?

Hair mask.

>>18255626
Tried 20% AHA and it's no joke, burned the sensitive skin underneath my eyes and the upper part of my nose kek.
Applying that shit to the scalp sounds really messy, maybe around the hairline and bald spot would be doable but I've never tried it.
