Norwood stage III here.Should I just go full shaved? Is there any decent alternative?
>>18532215fin and min now and save up for a transplant
>>18532240It's really this simple, but people refuse to listen.
>>18532242nooo bro you don't understand $30 monthly and 4 grand is way too much.
>>18532250my fin was like $35 for a 1yr prescription plus $12 for every 3mo refill, shipped.so like $7 a monthplus however long a $20 box of kirkland minoxidil lasts, the cost is negligble, I'm already 2 years on the same box.Since I switched to dut 0.5mg, my costs went up to $10/mo, still worth it to have thick lush hair
>>18532313>$20 box of kirkland minoxidil lasts, the cost is negligble, I'm already 2 years on the same box.how much are you putting? are you doing it on the hairline too?the liquid seems to go farther than the foam but that has to be getting to the bottom.
>>18532343i take 8 drops a day by mouth, 0.2ml/day which is roughly 10.6666mg of oral minoxidil
>>18532215Dutasteride is best.
>>18532215Just shave it all off, bro. Better be bald than balding. Besides, most girls love confident bald men, especially if you are fit and have a beard.
>>18532722Is this a Redditor?
>>18532722
>>18532722Girls also like guys with hair who are fit and confident. Guess which one they prefer? Society treats bald men like shit, and we can't just change that. Better to try and save it, unless you're sure that you'd be fine being bald.
>>18532215Cut your hair short, try micro needling/derma rolling with needles length of 0,6-1,5 mm, once a week. Then gently massage your scalp with minoxidil or rosemary oil once or twice a day and you'll grow most of the hair back in 3-6 months.
Balding is literally the outward sign of a skin disease, it's a disfigurement.
>>18532929Microneedling only works if you go to a clinic. The rollers don’t do shit and won’t even break the skin.>Microneedling > Antibacterial shampoo > Minoxidil liquid > Oxygen bed at a spaIn that exact order.
Why don’t you guys just wear fibers and that stuff that’s like concealer?
Use spirolactone. Spirolactone is a diuretic which, in large doses, inhibits DHT.It is regularly prescribed as an anti-estrogen for female to male HRT, and thus, comes with an astronomically lower risk of sexual side effects in men.
>>18532958because growing your own thick head of hair is easier
>>18532953Works well for me. Just make sure you're not deficient in any micro nutrients, especially vitamin D.
>>18532962Horrible adviceUnless you go on estrogen you will just have zero sex hormones and feel like shitDutasteride blocks DHT, Spiro blocks testosteroneGo back to lgbt
>>18532215Shave. Don't risk developing Post-Finasteride Syndrome.
>>18532215I recently buzzed my hair for the summer and noticed quite a bit of diffuse thinning on the crown despite being on fin for several years. Should I switch to dut? Or would it be enough to add topical min and hope for regrowth?
