These two are the most honest genuine no bullshit Drs for hair loss I’ve ever come across.
I suffered hair loss from a young age and used finasteride near 20 years ago. I was a super responder and my hair seemed to grow back while I was on it, I managed to keep a lot of my hair well into my late 30s. Now in my late 40s I’ve decided to let nature take its course. Although I have just started a course of Fin again just to see how much I can thicken it out.
The information these guys give is second to none. And took scouring the internet and books to find 20-30 years ago
How old were you when you started?
@@Anw4rr10r he was 20 when started fin
did you have kids whilst you were on it?
for how long were you on? 20 years?
and how much hair were you able to retain
I started using this “Amy Grow” hair oil in college and left it behind for newer brands. I’ve had some thinning due to braids and decided to go back and re-try this oil and I wish I had never left. I like the smell of the natural oil. This natural oil does not smell like coconuts or birthday cake or fruit like many other hair products. Instead, it smells earthy and natural and I prefer that. I would not say this is an instant miracle oil, but I have seen growth with regular use and massaging of my scalp. Yes, it is oil, but it also helps to soften my coarse, kinky hair, but I can see it being greasy if you have a smoother texture or straighten your hair. I would not apply this at bedtime because it can stain your sheets. Instead, I apply it in the morning so it has time to absorb during the day. Overall I highly recommend this “Amy-Grow” natural hair oil. It’s affordable, the ingredients are natural and it can assist growth. The amount you apply depends on your texture and style, so start with a couple of drops and go from there.
Simply a perfect oil for hair re growth.

Might be better to start right before that
@@TheHairLossShow I am 18 can I start finesteride
Yeah for me personally finasteride is more safer than minoxidil. Minoxidil gave me reduced sex drive and libido. Finasteride boosted my libido. It’s different for everyone tho
@@alidaud258 did you get good results from minoxidil? I have been using it for 5 months i dont notice really hair regrowth but my hair is not falling out anymore and 0 side effects , should i use finasteride?
Clearly this is the best channel for hair loss advices & knowledge.
Lots of great info in this video!
I heard a horror story of a guy who got a hair transplant, but did no preventative medications/treatments to maintain his existing hair. He continued to lose his hair, and eventually had to get a hairpiece.
THANK GOD, WE ACTUALLY HAVE SURGEONS THAT REALLY WANT TO HELP THE PATIENT. I've learned so much, listening to you guys! If you haven't already, we would love for you to talk to us about, what we should do to keep our hair healthy.
A video about topical finasteride would be very appreciated amongst everyone, thank you!
Please continue to make the videos...It feels good how both of you talk so optimistically about hair loss and its treatments...I would love for you guys to make a video on your own experiences of hair loss patients, and the statistics of which worked more and which didn't..and when is a cure expected!
Glad you are enjoying the content.
Very honest Doctors. Hats off to you both
The doctors bring up so many great points.
Glad you are enjoying it.
Thank you so much for this informational content! So great to see doctors who care about their patients :))
You guys are amazing! Thank you so much for this.
Love this channel btw. So much helpful information.
Excellent as always!
Im spewing i didnt find you guys before i went to ashley & martin 6 weeks ago. Your knowledge and care in what you give back is invaluable. Infact ive learnt more care and diligence from a free service on youtube. Im also from melbourne!infact ive called ashley & martin several times and it seems they dont really care. I will one day come in to your clinic
Hopefully it all went well and you now have the information that you require.

Great job gentleman. Thank you for sharing your knowledge to all us baldies :)
You are most welcome!
Thank you Doctors, for your very clear informative videos.
very interesting. thank you very much the sound is perfect!
Always good to have feedback!
Your videos are very informative so thank you. I was hoping if you could you make a video on using 320mg Saw Palmetto tablet's a day to stop hair loss in men as oppose to using Finasteride. I have read in multiple places this is the Natural remedy to using Finasteride and has the same effects. Could you compare the 2 please. Thank You
Well I have yet to see any documented evidence that any of the natural DHT reducers work well enough to achieve results.
This channel is more than necessary. So much misinformation out there about diseases as complex as the ones that involve hair loss. Thanks for sharing this clear information with all of us.
Appreciate it. Thanks for all you other comments as well. Sorry I haven't been able to respond to each one individually.
Thank you guys so much for your honesty!!
Could you talk about diffuse thinning on one of your shows and how it doesn't typically fit on the standard norwood scale as well as treatment options, especially transplant options as there is still hair across the top of the scalp?
Beautifully explained ?
Great information pls post more such videos
Hi guys, really appreciate the videos, can you infrom us what kind of treatments can we expect in the very near future?
I am truly surprised that you can suffer from MPD as early as 8. Mind blown.
Nature is cruel and doesn’t care who or what age you are. However it was merciful enough to give us a cosmetic look for a while before taking it away.
@@extremisttotheextremeantid7554 I would have rather if I was just born completely bald on the scalp, thr worst about balding is the change in your identity, something that was part of you being taken away, if you never had it there is not pain of the lost
Whats mpd?
@@yun-pg8cr Male Pattern Baldness.
@@ADAPTATION7 that's MPB.
I'm 24 and my hair at front is what you could describe as NW 3- highly receided tempes while quite thick hair at the middle and crown. My dad has Norwood 3 I would say (49 years old), my grandfathers had thick hair till death with only natural mature hairline (NW1,5/2) but uncles have NW4 and going futher so there are balding genes in my family for sure.
I was so scared of finasteride it took me many months to finally start proper treatment. Now I'm one month on finasteride+minoxidil+ketoconazole and I already see less hair falling on daily basis. Thank you for all these videos, very informative and professional. That gave me a hope to save something that is a part of my identity.
Congrats! Glad it is going well.
Great to hear your seeing improvement, I’m thinking about using finasteride but very hesitant because of the horror stories. How is it for you, do you have any side effects? Thanks
@@Matthew-zf3mw I'm 4,5 months on fin now and so far so good, I take fin three times a week and also zinc and vit b6 to keep estrogen and prolactine levels intact. While I didn't regrow much so far, it's very comforting to know that there's solution that atleast stops it.
Jakub Klinger thanks for the reply, I’m going to start it soon and I’ll try to keep retrograde levels down. I’m 18 and going to see a doctor soon as I’m trying to catch it early. Thanks again
Hey how is it going now? Did yoj experience shedding initially?
Great video
can you do a video on effects on hard water and harsh climatic conditions resulting in hair miniaturisation and hair loss. cos here in Dubai alot of people complain about hair loss
It’s genetic.
I am almost 26 with very very minimal thinning in a small section of my hairline, but have a thin crown. I believe I understand what my hairloss would look like in the future, based on my father's and grandfather's hair. Hairloss is honestly ruining my quality of life. It has stopped me from doing many things I want to do, such as swimming and being anxiety-free in social situations. If I were to get an FUT in my early 30's, how can I plan to keep my hair for a lifetime. I am open to having more operations if needed throughout my life. I am also currently on 6 months of finasteride.
Thank you so much for your time.
Finasteride doesn't help you,🤔
aßee n finasteride only helps to maintain hair and prevent further hair loss, regrowth is a bonus
@@subie1019 they increase thickness, which is almost as important as growth IMO
Hey any update at all? Have you been on finasteride for a full year now? Any improvement? Have you maintained?
A super quick update would be reeallyyyy appreciated
How are you?)
Thank you so much
Thanks for your great content, doctors! I have one question, please:
I am currently on Minoxidil to "buy some time" as I decide whether to get on Finasteride or not. My question is, will the hair saved by Minoxidil still be preserved by Finasteride as I transition to it, or will the latter only preserve the "non-minoxidil-dependent" hairs?
Many thanks in advance!
No, it will act on all the hairs.
The Hair Loss Show so basically i could stop minoxidil and keep both my hairs and the minoxidil hairs? If everything works right for me ofc
@@JacopoTirelli As per other forums, the minoxidil-hairs will fall out and cannot be preserved when switching to finasteride.
@@husainismaeel2981 but they just said it would work on newly acquired minoxidil hair regrowth, hence also being preserved by finasteride. Did I miss some above?
@@Cosmic_Code I think the idea is that it will act on those hairs and keep them stable, but only for as long as you're also using minoxidil, I don't believe you can hop on minoxidil temporarily and then keep them only using finasteride, but don't quote me on that, I'm not the doctor here haha
Thanks a lot for all these valuable videos!
Regarding the reducing dht therapies (by blocking the type I/II 5alfa reductase enzyme), how would you evaluate saw palmetto (320mg with 80%-90% of fatty acids per day)?
My issue with Saw Palmetto is that it doesn't have a predictable pattern of working. There are no studies (that hold up to statistical analysis) that demonstrate the effectiveness of Saw Palmetto. That is not to say that people haven't had benefit, it is just not predictable.
The Hair Loss Show thanks a lot for the reply!
Can we have you guys talk about the common ball pain at the start of the treatment? Appreciate the content. Thanks for the effort. It is extremely informative.
Will add that to the next Q+A
Did you have it too? It wasn't too painful for me but just a little achy from time to time during the first two weeks. Then it subsided after two weeks
Thank you for the videos. Very informative. I'm curious about your opinion on hair loss shampoos. Do you think they're effective or are they just false promises?
Anything that is sold over the counter, if it does have an active ingredient, the level has to be low enough that it cannot cause any side effects. The second issue I have is that for any shampoo to be absorbed, it has to remain on the skin for 6 mins. Not many men will do that. That is not to say that I am against these products. I think it is hard to make them effective.
At 28 I went to go see a Dr. At bosley, I did not get treated with finesteride until I followed with surgery which was 6 years later I'm 34_now and had a fue,. But I would have liked the treatment of finesteride beforehand. It was just a lot of money for surgery
Hello, Dr.Knudsen. I started to lose some hair overall, and my hair has become thinner overall since I was 20.
Now I am 28. I am currently at Norwood class 2(maybe going 3). with the upper temple moved back with some very thin hair at the transition area. And My upper hairline starts to become noticeably thinner than the middle. There is MBP history on my maternal family side. Should I take treatment now or not ?
Why the fuck are you waiting for fucking 8 years take fin bro lol
Topical Finasteride is getting a be a popular topic. I'd love to hear your thoughts on it along with this other topical, Breezula, meant to be getting FDA approved this year for AGA
For us poor souls who somehow still get sides from microdosing!
Zachary Macer
Where did you hear that the FDA is approving it this year?? So it will be available to be used for hair loss and prescribed this year you’re saying?
Interesting about the drug, because it inhibits PGD-2, which aspirin also does powerfully..
@@BlahBlahPoop617 You mean aspirin can also inhibit DHT production?
Thanx for the great info. I'm taking minoxidil and finasteride. In seeing some growth happening now. Also taking Methyl Sulfonyl Methane. Is this good? Con
Hey any update?? Would love a quick one. I’ve just seen some thinning alittle and I’m thinking of getting on finasteride. Any side effects?
Your the best bros
When young in my 20s without hair loss. My father started balding at 23. Did my own research. But I know it’s mother’s genes and her side had thick hair. Nevertheless where I live in Asia I could get Finasteride and later Loniten by a quick word to the pharmacist. Still have a full set aged 63.
Hi doc’s, I’m 22 years old this year and got marked at a 3 vertex. Although when looking at models of a 3 vertex, I feel I look better. I was told a FUE transplant would be a great option and if I maintained finasteride I would not have to worry of losing my hair any further and post transplant. I’m healthy and athletic with no issues with ED, but should I be worried about finateride side effects? And is the transplant a smart option if i use fin? Thanks guys.
Jay, this is a great question and really does highlight the issues.
Firstly, you are quite young to already be a 3 vertex. Please don't take that badly, but it means that you are more to the moderate / aggressive end of the scale. With someone like that, the concern is how much further will you progress; with or without medication. Remember, even with finasteride, you still run the risk of losing more hair over time.
There is a risk of early transplantation. The problem would be that if you need multiple surgeries over time will you run out of donor hair?
If you go down the road of having a hair transplant, the key question is which technique would be better? There will be a lot of factors affecting that decision; but purely on an age basis, one could argue that you are better off starting with FUT and progressing to FUE later...
Good luck!
I had a young boy wd Hirline Recession , Almost All HT docs Suggested Surgery Except me n Put him on Med n PRP Regime n Now he is Doing Exceptionally Well Dr Zahid
Thanks for the videos.. can minoxidel be used alone?Will it be effective..?
It can but best effect is to combine with DHT inhibitor ( Dutasteride or Finasteride)
Hi doctor 🙋🏻♂️☺️ What does it mean if I have a small white bulb like matter at the end of fallen / easily removed hair? This is in near the hairline towards the front. There appears to be a few patches in this area (this area also has itching)?
Have you ever treated LPP? And, if so, how?
Hi docs, I am currently using minoxidil and it seems to be working well. Do I still need to be taking finasteride or can I continue using only minoxidil?
Thank you so much for your videos
Hello, love you guys! I live in the states and well getting to a doctor, especially for hair loss is hard to say the least at best my dermatologist says my hair looked fine. I have noticed thinning but also I now only see thinning, I take Minoxidil and am on a big vitamin regiment. Honestly I am a nervous guy and with my hair sadly I am a touch vain, I want to start finasteride but it seems the doctors at Keeps and Hims seem that they will prescribe to anyone so at almost 35 do you think it would be smart to bite the bullet and just start treatment in finasteride? thank you for all of these videos
I’d go for it. It’s what I’m gonna do
Minoxidil won’t stop miniaturization so get on fin ASAP
@@MostafaElSakari In my country doctors prescribe fin to women with birthconrol.
What are the potential side effects of blocking DHT production? Is it very rare that there are any negative side effects? What about for doing it for many decade?
Hi Doctors, very informative videos. Thank you. I’m 54 years old and I’m considering surgery at this point, as the thinning has been more progressive in the last couple of years. My question is does Finasteride help maintain the existing hair after the surgery? I’m hoping that surgery fills in the empty spots and then FIN will help in maintaining the rest. Also, I’ve been using Nioxin for sometime now, and want to know if that shampoo also helps to maintain. Any other medications/shampoos in the market o should consider? Thank you in advance.
I’m no doctor, but from everything I have heard, even after hair transplant, finasteride (and possibly minoxidil, though I am not sure) is a must in order to maintain your new hair. without finasteride, nothing is going to stop the new hair from falling out again
I have used minoxidil for one month it started shedding a lot i know about initial shedding phase i was afraid so i don't want to continue..can that shedded hair due to minoxidil will regrow without using minoxidil further or that lost hair was lost?
C'mon dude you know that's expected, it's not gonna stop growing keep with it
Hey can you update us about hair condition now......
You should do a video on natural hair loss treatments like sal palmetto/flax seed/pumpkin seed oil.
These crooks are not interested in products that do not make them money. You can learn about the dangers of DHT inhibition here. forum.propeciahelp.com/
That stuff doesn't work, it will just give you diarrhea. Sure it's good for the digestion though.
@@dx398 Fuck off dude
They don't work. Only you can do for now is DHT inhibitor and perhaps Minoxidil.
I just want to keep my head full of hair till i am 40 or 45. After that, i really don't care if i have hair or not, because i have already lived my youth and i am ready to enter the next stage of the Human life, growing old.
At that point, i just want to eat healthy and exercise so i don't have to rely on too many medicines and assistance into my old age.
I am currently 25, already started experiencing hair thinning and hair loss, i haven't taken any medication yet, but i will probably start with micro-dose of fin and maybe bump it up to 1mg if i don't see much effect.
I don't plan on taking fin for my entire life, it is completely unnecessary.
Just keep your hair while you are young, and if you want, you can try and keep it into your 50's and 60's, but that's just too much toll on your body. Let nature take its course at that point.
Same, I’m 24 now and have some diffused thinning and thinking of hopping onto topical finasteride + minoxidil. I just want to have nice hair till I’m 40 and by that time I’ll be married and have kids as well, so I won’t care about my hair anymore. I’ll just stay in shape.

What about facial maturation in your 20s
Even though your done puberty your body still matures and go through slight changes
Could Finasteride effect this?
I minoxidil may have affected my heart. So I discontinued. I’m now at an age where I may no longer be a viable candidate for HT. Thirty years ago, HT was not as good as it is today. So I didn’t bother. My hair didn’t miniaturize, it just fell out. I don’t know where to go from here.
Dr how can you accurately estimate or calculate that a hair is at 50% thickness?

No offence but you're 51, does it even matter?
@@testtset7946 None taken, I'm 52 now. Not sure why it should not matter? I don't need to chase chicks if that's what you mean. Married with kid. But you're not dead at 52, I still feel good, my hairloss is not insanely great so I'm thinking it's a good time to get a HT given that I still haven't lost it all. But haven't done it yet, still too nervous.
@@LarsRyeJeppesen HT's can come with its own set of complications, i won't pretend to know anything about it.
Loosing in your hair in your 40/50's is incomparable to the social stigma of loosing them in your teens/20's. But to each their own, if you feel that much more confident with hair hope you'll be able to keep it.
@@testtset7946 You're right ,I definitely care much less about it now than earlier. That's also why am in doubt.. there definitely are risks as you say. And I'm not sure the potential results are worth the risks. Cheers
53 now, still on Dutasteride and it works well. After having added Oral Minoxidil (2.5mg daily) it really has improved the hair quality/thickness.
23 and currently just about to develop a mature hairline (my hairline is about 95% juvenile). I am asian with a full head of thick hair for now. Paternal side is bald, maternal side not bald. should I start taking microdoses of finasteride just as a preventative measure?
How’s the hair going?
Is it wise to start at .5mg (half dose) daily and move up if not effective?
Do you need to wash your hair with shampoo to remove sebum before applying hair loss topicals?
No. I think it would only be an issue if you had really oily scalp. But for most, not really suggested.
Hi
Now my age is 36,I am suffering hair loss problem for the past 20years.Msny times I was used Minoxidil and discontinued.

for taking Finasteride tablet with Minoxidil solution or else No use for taking treatment???
what about start treatment if you don't need it?
If I take a combination of oral finasteride and topical minoxidil and see significant regrowth can I stop taking minoxidil and keep taking finasteride to maintain the results?
We need FDA approved topical finasteride
@The Hair Loss Show Can men use 2% minoxidil. Thanks form India
I’ve been using minoxidil 5% for over 2 years now... I heard you say that the levels of DHT drop within hours after taking the first pill of finasteride... So I thought it would make sense that in 3 months I would atleast see my hair loss slow down... but no I’m still diffuse shedding...again I’m not expecting to regrow hair I just want to maintain what I have on my head right now...Do you think I should switch to dut or wait more ? I’m 20 years old by the way
Your pattern of hair loss sounds quite aggressive for a 20 year old. I would still wait another 2-3 months.
At that point you could add dutasteride.
The Hair Loss Show do you do online consultation for non-australian people ?
I m with nw 4-5 scale.. If i start using finax and mnx.. Wht could I expect.. Worst could be no growth or effect.. I can understand.. Wht could be the best.. Can i go to nw 2 or 1
Hey docs, I've heard some people say that the likelyhood of regrowth and more visual results from finasteride is higher in younger men, 25 and under. Any thoughts on this theory?
It works better the smaller the degree of miniaturisation. So I would assume that younger people would fit into that category, hence making the above statement true. That said, it is not cause and effect, meaning that it is not because of age that finasteride works better.
So since I’m 22 with a Norwood 5 and my dad is a Norwood 5 or 6 and he is 62 years old. And my mother’s, brother’s one is I believe 54 years old and the other one is 50 years old. The younger brother my other uncle, had a Norwood 6 pattern when he was 43 years old I looked at pictures and he had and still has high sides and large donor area (I saw in person) and a few hairs meaning like 10 left but they were spread out, still on the top of his head. My other uncle that is 54 years old right now he has a Norwood 6 pattern I’m pretty sure because he still has high sides and a small patch on frontal forelock. So my question is since they are high Norwood’s but not Norwood 7 (I don’t think) and they are in there 50s and my dad is in his 60s. Am I only programmed to go up to a Norwood 5 or 6? and then my male pattern baldness has stopped and then I can get a transplant?
No. There is no way of predicting. My father is a Norwood 6-7. I just drew the genetic lottery. Family history can give you an idea but no guarantee.
Hi guys what are your thoughts on topical Finasteride, evidence supports sides are almost 0, and has nearly the same effectiveness. What are your views?
i wonder this as well
We have many patients that are on it and are tolerating better than the oral form. It is keeping them stable so that is the key.
So topical finasteride works almost as good as oral ? @The hair loss show
starting at age 16 seems a bit young to me, probably hasnt even started growing facial hair substantially yet, face shape changes into low 20's, thats crazy

Hello doctors! I started finasteride 2 weeks ago 1MG per day. First 5 days of taking it I had unrelenting heart palpitations... not 100% sure they were heart palps but I had jumping in my chest anyways (without pain) that lasted for this number of days. Have not had absolutely any other problems associated with the medication since. Feel great. Was wondering if you have heard of this happening or could shed some light on what happened to me? I figure it was just my body adapting in some weird way. Thank you for your time!
Probably your body getting used to the new levels of the different hormones. Glad it has settled.
The Hair Loss Show That’s what I figured. Thanks a bunch for your input!
Hey any update? Any other side effects and how’s the hair looking? Would love a quick update!
J Allson Sure thing. This may be a tough pill to swallow (pun intended) but in the weeks after this comment all hell broke loose. I was so determined to continue and fought on and on... lowering the dose etc... I finally threw in the towel on July 14th. As of August 29th, I am just now feeling normal again and hope I continue to recover. Severe insomnia, forgetfulness, memory loss, slowed thinking, poor attention, sexual shutdown, climaxes that felt no better than passing gas (no joke). It was like I didn’t sleep for months yet at the same time I was so wired it was like I drank several cups of coffee. Roughly 5 and a half months on the drug. Hair never changed. I have diffuse thinning. I am hoping to consult a qualified dermatologist this time to get to the bottom of the cause of thinning in my personal case. May not even be MPB for sure anyways. Wasted my whole year torturing myself with this medication, not that 2020 has been worth “enjoying” anyways. Ha!
I want to add... even though I’m not a very pro- pharmaceutical person in the first place at all, don’t let my experience dissuade you... I wasn’t exactly an ideal candidate in the first place... I have always had a lot of constitutional issues. YMMV
I'd say with stress in today's world...start at 23, for full hair retention, even if low dosed or minimal treatment

@@sangeetabittu1498 the thing is that minoxidil actually works on stimulating the hair growth and the hairs only grow in anagen phase(3-5years),minoxidil works by extending the phase, so when the hair is in telogen phase minoxidil doesn't work on that particular hair and when the telogen phase(lasts 2-3 months)of the hair ends and new anagen phase starts minoxidil starts working, thats why doctors recommend 3-4 months of continuous usage to see results

@@pcprincipal345 well I did it 15 years ago and they placed a huge cowlick into my hairline. Looks terrible.
@@pcprincipal345 perhaps modern day transplants are better but I had another one and it didn’t help much my front hairline is cursed apparently . Not I can’t wear a natural hairstyle so I’m fooked

@@NBTCTennis sorry to hear dude
How common is hair loss after 30 with nothing more than a mature hairline?
41 years old.....1 Year after Hairtransplant, will it be fine to start FIN? I have not been taking anything except multivitamins formulated for hair and natural DHT
What about rosemary oil?!
My question: What do you mean by lifelong consequences of the surgery? I thought hair transplant only leaves almost invisible scars.
Thank you!
Scarring is well known, particularly people who have strip donor areas taken, and if they continue to lose hair and want to shave their head.
If I can I will avoid hair transplant because im scare about the scars, maybe in the future I just will shave my head but if I have scars Idk

Can male pattern loss start at 37? Or is thinning temples just part of aging?
Is it worth trying to prevent hair loss/ get a hair transplant if your not willing to take finasteride, but are using minoxidil daily and taking vitamins such a as biotin zinc etc ?
I’m looking to to do it myself I’m not bothered taking fin for my hair life! My best guess is you’ll want to be willing to do multiple hair transplants + smp to achieve a good result! Depending on your predestined hair loss you can make it to 60 with a “good head of hair”
If u go through hair transplant doc will give u minox and finasteride 😂😂😂
Hey doc.
We know that the main reason for MPB is the DHT. However there are some people saying that testosterone can also cause hairloss. Is that true? Can testosterone also bind to androgen receptors in the scalp and cause miniaturization? Thanks guys from Germany
Guten Tag! It is not testosterone that causes the problem. That said, testosterone will convert into DHt which can cause the miniaturisation. Hope that helps.
No. Testosterone is responsible for masculine features like heavier voice, higher muscle density, bone density, Adam's apple, and body hair growth. By that definition we would only grown either more hair around the crown and face edges or increase the thickness or length of the follicles that's readily present.
@@hoejackborseman1059 DHT does those things as well.
Yes, it can actually, but to a lesser extent ( all androgens do, hence the name androgenic alopecia. Test is approx 8 times less androgenic than DHT). However some people are more T senstive than average, and this is all down to genetics.
@@chris-nx1nk What makes genetics sensitive to DHT for some other men? There have to be explaination in detail rather than blaming just genetics which is absurd, irrelevant and illogical
This is amazing thank you doctors. What are your opinions on PRP for a 21 year old? I just have loss of density at the moment compared to last year.
PRP works as a stimulator of hair growth. If you get a chance, have a look at our video on PRP.
There is no issue of PRP vs age. It is generally very safe as you are using your own blood. That said, not all PRP is created equally. The machine does unfortunately make a difference.
Most of the doctors are prescribing biotin or MVT and herbal/herb extract spray( along with minoxidil)..does this stuffs have a role in stimulation or its just a money waster??
Hi Doctors I am 28 years old and have been experiencing hair loss since a few months so much so that now my dermatologist says it is female pattern hair loss grade 2 and has recommended me Minoxidil 2% and Wellwoman hairfollic tablet. The reason I am experiencing this condition is that I was on a low calorie diet since past 6 months and also have oily scalp with dandruff. Is my hair loss reversible if I only take the tablets without using Minoxidil ?
Also, my PCOD is declining.
There are a lot of factors to be properly assessed and managed. I would certainly start with a higher strength Minoxidil though like 5%.
@@TheHairLossShow Thank u so much for the quick turnaround. Appreciate it! I feel much secure to start with Minoxidil now. Thank you.
Can you guys talk about diffuse hair loss. Thanks!
We will do a video on this at some point.
I couldn't get 1mg Finasteride. Can I take 5mg once a week? Or what is the best way to handle a 5mg dosage?
Split them into quarters and they will be 1.25mg each
Hello, doctors Jayaprakash and Knudsen. I had an HT about 2 weeks back for the frontal part of the scalp, and I'm 25y9m of age. I'm concerned about losing hair on the rest of my upper scalp (crown already has a little bit of thinning). Is a combination of PRP, Minoxidil, Finasteride and multivitamins likely to at least prevent further hair loss? My father(59) and older brother (35) have a good head of hair. I guess I was handed the short end of the genetic stick! :(
Anyway, would be very helpful if you shine(pun intended) some light on this...
Fuck baldness
Take finasteride asap. And take zinc suplements. And stop pmo. Drink green tea.
I think what you have mentioned will give you the best chance of holding on to the remaining hair. Good luck with everything.
@@TheHairLossShow Oh, forgot to mention. I'm a chain smoker too. Been trying to quit, but failed on multiple occasions. Could you maybe do a video on the effects of smoking on hair fall/loss? Would be very helpful to many, many individuals!
Hi. I wanna do appreciate you both dear doctors.
I,m 30 yo and start to use1 mg finastride 3 times a week.
My question is that,is there any chance to regrowth in my hair.
I,m loosing hair in front of my head about 50 %.
yes
Yes u can definitely regrow hair, if there is no regrowth by around 6 months, my recommendation would be to up the dosage to maybe 5/6/7 times a week, depending on ur choice
So did it work? Did you regrow some hair?
