If you have major male hair loss on either parents side and you're in your 20s you should just start taking finasteride regardless because it will hit you like a brick wall and you won't even realize it before it's too late. It takes months for the medication to begin working so by the time you notice it, it can be too large for some people.

I wish I would've started taking it at 21/22. I would still have a completely full head of hair. Instead I started taking it at 24 and it stabilized, but only after the damage was done. Now I'm thinking I bought as well shave it all off anyway because I didn't save enough of it for it to matter.

Finasteride is fucking poison. It increases your estrogen by 10-15% guaranteed, that's how the drug works (it prevents conversion of test to DHT).

I'm coming here as both a warning and as encouragement. The pic attached was me at 22 the year before i joined the army. This is with only 1 years worth of fin.. i was basically just at a damage control stage at that point. After doing my service (it's mandatory in my country) i realized that a bald cut quite suited me and actually made me work / want to improve upon other aspects of myself.

Do i wish i stll had the lush blonde locks which i once had? Of course! But the difference is I realized that my hair doesnt define me as a person and after taking shaving my head i can honestly say nothing monumental has changed in my life. If anything i am less insecure and more confident than I've ever been before.

I'm 34 and I have only receded corners so far and I've always worn shoulder length hair parted in the middle, so they get 'combed over' and aren't as noticeable.

If it ever gets worse, I'd probably shave. Maybe if I keep my hair until my 40s, I'd consider a transplant to fill out the corners if it's not too invasive. But honestly I'm coming to peace with the outlook of someday saying goodbye to it all.

I've taken fin/min for 13 years now and I exercise regularly. I wouldn't say I'm shredded, but I'm definitely defined in body + I never had saggy/dark eyes or erectile dysfunction.

I'm not expert and I think these drugs are horrible poison, but to my experience a lot of people blame them for conditions they would have gotten anyway, with or without taking them. It's like a fat guy complaining about being constantly tired and growing bitch tits from overeating or a guy complaining about not being able to get hard from smoking and drinking, then blaming it all on fin.

>Blood tests for estrogen generally look at estradiol levels. Men’s estradiol levels range from 15-60 pg/ml over the course of their lifetimes. For women, the range varies significantly throughout their life, including during each menstrual cycle. A female’s lifetime estradiol range is from 20-400 pg/ml, with post-menopausal levels being similar to those in men. Various sources I checked show slightly different estimates for the above ranges, but in general, women have significantly more estradiol then men prior to menopause. It should be noted that while women’s estrogen levels are primarily manufactured by the ovaries, men’s levels are attained via the aromatase reaction that converts testosterone to estrogen.

>From the above numbers, one can deduce that in young adult males, Finasteride will result in estradiol levels rising from say around 35 pg/ml to around 40 pg/ml (i.e., 15 percent increase). This finding makes me a bit more comfortable in continuing to take Finasteride. I also vaguely remember taking a blood test in the past in which one of the measurements was for prolactin, and my levels were normal despite my taking Finasteride 1.25 mg every two days at the time. Abnormal levels of prolactin indicate that something is wrong with your testosterone and/or estrogen levels (for both men and women).

your "15% increase" is literally insignificant. try harder.

You could use Rogaine that'll grow the hair back, however once you start using it you need to keep doing it. If you stop, the hair you grew back will fall out. This is because whatever chemical Rogaine replenishes, your body says "Wow I'm getting this chemical here, so I don't need to make it anymore!" and so it just stops. Not sure if this'll cause other neighboring hair to fall out too, though.

Regardless: Stick to Rogaine but don't stop once you do. That, or get surgery where they pull your ass hairs out and plop them in one by one. Whatever.

Or, you know, you can just not care?

You have love handles and itty-bitty gyno, estrogen boy. And you'll be taking estrogen pills for the rest of your life.

yeah that's classic signs of no DHT / increased est. bodyfat seems low enough to shot chest definition, yet there's tons of fat around the hips and nips are showing first signs of gyno.

There's a reason that bodybuilders do not touch Fin no matter what.
