You need to go back and see your doctor, the one who prescribed these medications to you. Finasteride may interfere with a lower the androgen levels of the body and possibly impacting body fat metabolism. If that is happening to you, it is rare.

Hair loss is a progressive process. If your hair loss progresses after a hair transplant, you might want to see if you need more transplants to keep up with the new hair loss. However, the hair transplants themselves stay without medication or support of any kind since it is relatively maintenance free. Drugs like Finasteride will protect you from the hair loss that may normally occur.
You are starting to see shock loss, which is a loss of the native hair that often follows a hair transplant. This is prevented by the use of Finasteride. The small arrow points to the area which had hair before the hair transplant.
There are good solutions. Any thoughts of suicide suggest you should speak with a support network or seek professional help. Doctors can help you with hair problems so that the man in the mirror will be acceptable to you. If you are in the Los Angeles area, come see me. The consultation is free.

The use of a Dermaroller, which causes wounds, has its risks. It can introduce an infection because the scalp contains the potentially dangerous “staph” bacteria in a significant number. So, by making wounds with this instrument, it produces an unnecessary risk which can, on rare occasions, produce cellulitis. Cellulitis can become necrotizing, a very rare form of cellulitis that can become a life-threatening event.
There is no evidence that the use of a Dermaroller will provide any benefit to cause hair growth. I would caution all of the readers here to think more than twice about using this modality of treatment. There are some good treatments out there, see a doctor and get one that works.
I’m looking to buy a dermaroller. I need to know 2 things: number of needles and how much mm? from tressless
Thanks for the article. One important comment in the article is: “Also, as with all scientific research on hair regeneration, there are a lot of unknowns and there is no easy way to tell whether a particular research will be brought to fruition or not. The same goes for PTD-DBM hair regeneration.” What this is saying is: don’t count on any short-term answers. Because of articles with positive mouse testing and human skin on mouse studies that are successful, too many people think that the cure for balding is at hand. I have seen this same “story” told over the past 25 years, and still, no cure is available.
For most young men losing hair, the problem is now, not sometime in the future. They want solutions that work now, and these solutions are limited to Minoxidil and Finasteride or hair transplantation.

The skin in this area takes about 3-4 months to become normal, even if it looks normal. Therefore, you should not traumatize it by brushing roughly. Instead, gently use a brush to comb your hair in this area.
Chest hair has a short growth cycle, so after 6-8 months, it stops growing and goes into telogen (a rest cycle) which can last 6-8 months. This means that less than half of the hairs grow at any one time, and its length and thickness are far less than scalp hair. This is not the best source of hair for a hair transplant.
Has anyone here had chest hair to head transplant? from tressless
Have you looked at Scalp Micropigmentation? This is a great and relatively inexpensive solution to get the look of hairs on a closely shaved head. It is such a great illusion that I have had patients examined by 400 doctors who could not tell that the patient did not have real hair.

You are better off stopping Dutasteride and sticking with Finasteride. If your ED problems are not resolved in 2 months, you should discuss with your doctor about stopping Finasteride.
A hair transplant works well if you are over 25. If you are under the age of 25, you should not have a hair transplant because if you continue balding behind the corrected hairline, and it will not look normal. Consequently, you will be chasing hair loss as you age. Similarly, if you have a hair transplant before your balding pattern become evident, then you will be chasing hair transplants for the next decade.
If you decide to get a hairline advancement surgery, you may see a scar.
Forehead deformities after a hairline advancement surgery can occur if the hairline is not perfectly aligned. I would go back and ask your surgeon to address your concerns. Alternatively, you could have a hair transplant and bury the “abnormalities,” but it may be better go back and see your surgeon first.

This is an interesting read. It is still a long way from the mouse to the human.
