you need to be on finasteride after the hair transplant. Also finasteride doesn't castrate you, it will actually reduce your free testosterone because it's not getting converted to DHT.

I've taken them for 2-3 years now.

I took finasteride for about 2 years then switched to dutasteride but finasteride was still working when I switched. I never expected it to actually work so said I'd take it for a year and see what happens, there was clear regrowth others were noticing after 3 months and by the time I'd took them for a year friends I hadn't seen for a while were asking if I'd had a transplant or similar.

The pic is mine and I'm happy to answer any questions. If you know nothing about them, there are 3 main treatments. Finasteride is the main one and highly effective and dutasteride is just a stronger version of finasteride. There is also minoxidil which works but nowhere near as well as these 2 and isn't enough alone.

I have had absolutely no side effects of any kind before this comes up.

You're talking about the oral version, the normal version is a liquid you rub on your head.

I wouldn't base medical decisions on what seems wrong or unsafe as opposed to looking at scientific studies and seeing what they find or just listening to the doctor since the conclusions will often be very unintuitive. I'm not sure if it is actually safe or not I don't take it.

My complaint with minox and the reason I don't take it is that the topical version gives you far less results than dutasteride yet is 100x more effort and inconvenitn. Even the oral version sounds like a pain in the ass cause it is harder to get and makes hair grow everywhere.

This as well, I don't have pets but since they're lifelong maybe a partner or kids in future would want a dog, cat etc.

The non-foam version also makes it look like you have dandruff and I doubt it works if you have long hair. Imo it's just too much of a pain unless you've already tried fin/dut and it alone wasn't enough.

Depends on the cause but I would guess this is just the normal aging process.

Other guesses would be PCOS if you have ovaries or cushings disease if you have other symptoms. There are other hormonal causes but these are rarer.

Have you been diagnosed with any medical conditions? Are you overweight?

Again I'd like to reiterate it sounds normal unless there is the presence of other symptoms.

Being tall and bald is better than being average and bald but being tall with hair is better than either.

Also being bald is just inconvenient having to shave constantly and I like how I look better with hair. Even if women didn't care I'd still be preventing it

okay, gay ppl that take it do it to hopefully attract men, but it's the same dynamic
all i'm saying is taking finasteride or whatever is counter productive when u account for the possibility of side effects and whatnot if u are already 6 ft 4, which is literally a hack for female brains

No worries. I thought you might be overweight or have some disease since unusual to be on meds as a young adult without pathology or family history. Weird it was even picked up unless it was at the physical exam and that's a thing in Korea even if not symptomatic.

Final guess is that it is a side effect of the med, just google "med name side effects" and see what comes up. Don't google "does med name cause hair growth" cause it will come out with random shit.

I hope you get the results you want regardless. There may be some over the counter creams you can use but I couldn't name these off the top of my head and of course you could just shave with more regularity.

Main reason I take it is for dating, I never denied that. Even ignoring this though I would still take it.

Uhhh no being tall is great but having a full head of hair and being tall is even better which is why I take it. I have found it easier to get laid or matches on dating apps since my hair regrew.

Regarding side effects my answer is quite simply why would I give a fuck about stuff which either isn't real (PFS) or stuff which sucks but is very unlikely to happen and if it did I'd just stop taking it (normal ED).

i just googled that shit and it sounds plausible, u are literally playing with hormones, but i'm not gonna pretend like i researched it
it's also plausible that you got lucky and have no side effects, doesn't mean that's the case for everyone
not even gonna respond to the dating match shit since i just walked downtown to work an hour ago and saw like 3 bald and/or deformed tards with attractive or semi-attractive girls by their side

Kek without fail the copers always bring up Jason Statham or the Rock. Yes and what about the other famous balding actors? That's right, there aren't that many because literally everyone in Hollywood is on finasteride.

women do think I'm ugly even with hair so finasteride isn't going to improve my life much even if it worked

You are not a Hollywood actor. They also have 10 different cosmetic procedures per year, as their body is the brand. I gotta say having a hair implant is still better than taking estrogen for 50 years until you die.

Both those guys are 50 years or older.
FUE transplants, the most effective and common so far, didn't really take off until the late 00's, but really didn't become great until the late 10's when they were both over 40 and probably didn't have a good donor area anymore.
Elon Musk did get a hair transplant.
Rock and Jason probably just don't care much.

What is it that you're not getting? I'll put it in simpler terms for you, hair is an attractive feature whereas being bald isn't. What does being a Hollywood movie star have to do with this? Everyone wants to look the best they can possibly be, it's natural. And once again for hair transplant to work you need to be those "estragon" pills after the procedure.

Fin is the key. It's perfectly benign unless you are overdosing on it. It has a long half life so its effects can be felt with as little as 0.5mg every 3 days. The sexual side effects meme is confirmation bias, studies show that the placebo group had the same rate of sexual complications ~5%, men just have sex issues these days and if they're on fin they blame the fin.

I did a shit ton of research before going on it as I'm a weightlifter and take pride in my test and strength, it's been 6 years now, no issues, thick head of hair. So take that advice, or don't, doesn't matter to me if you want to be a baldy.

Kek you can tell this thread hit nerve. I think the reason why people like you get offended when people hop on fin is because you know that you missed that chance. No amount of fin or dust is gonna bring your hair back so seeing people with a chance to stop their balding or regrow their hair back infuriates you. Just my assumption based off your responses. Because if you really didn't care about being bald then you wouldn't be in this thread trying to dissuade people from taking action to combat their balding, that or you're woman.
