Adderall and Ritalin can produce hair loss. A good diet is important as a general health issue and hair health reflects your overall health. If you have genetic balding, you need to be diagnosed by mapping your scalp for miniaturization. At 24, there are many things you can do, but first you need to get […]

Unfortunately, Propecia (and probably Avodart) will eventually stop working in men with an aggressive genetic hair loss predisposition. In these men, you need to have a Master Plan to determine what you might do when the drugs stop working. In many young men taking Propecia, the effects over time will decrease, but when it does, […]
Gynecomastia (painful nodules that appear in the male breast) is a rare complication/side effect from Propecia. I believe that even Avodart has the same side effect. My heart goes out to you. Get a good Master Plan, which may be critical to defining what your future hair loss has in store for you. Minoxidil may […]
Get your metrics done with mapping out your scalp for miniaturization. You need a diagnosis and a Master Plan to determine what is going to happen for you. At 21, not all young men show the impact of miniaturization. If this is the case for you, then you will have to follow it over time. […]
Hair loss from a single, small scalp reduction is unusual. As you know, scalp reductions have fallen on hard times and the surgery has been largely abandoned because sooner or later, the hair loss will continue and the scar may then become a problem. Scalp reductions stretch the scalp from the sides (it does not […]
At only age 22, you can not be sure if the hair loss may come on in the future. By age 30, you can tell by mapping out the hair for miniaturization. For this reason, we generally do not treat high hairlines, but that is a generality and is something that should be worked out […]
Stress impacts everything in our lives. Your hair loss and thinning is certainly (assuming you have genetic hair loss) being made worse by stress. Propecia sounds like it has slowed or stopped the present hair loss, but as male genetic hair loss is a progressive process, it is only a matter of time until you […]
Propecia has been shown to have better results than Rogaine in treatment of hair loss from male pattern baldness in young men. You need to get your hair and scalp mapped out for miniaturization to have a proper diagnosis, so that your doctor can develop a Master Plan for your overall situation. Both Rogaine (minoxidil) […]
For a Norwood 4A balding pattern, 2500 grafts in a single session sounds like a reasonable number that might meet all of your needs, depending how large the area is. Most people have about 6,000-8,000 grafts available in their donor area, but the actual number may vary. That is why we measure everyone’s density to […]
I am fairly sure that you are not losing hair transplants, but what you are seeing may reflect poor cleansing of the recipient area where the scabs stayed on too long. Without seeing you, I am assuming that what you are seeing is the hair from within the old grafts that is coming out (the […]
Your story is not unusual as denial is a common reaction to aging in the young man who believes that he is forever immune to signs of aging or balding or ill health. I generally think that young people have a concept that their bodies are their castle with high walls which protect them from […]
It sounds like you are grasping for straws and may or may not find a solution. First you need to KNOW if you have genetic hair loss, like what is in your family. With measurements on miniaturization made, you can then establish a base line from which drugs like Propecia can be valued by comparing […]
There are a series of hair metrics (measurements) that any good doctor must do for a proper analysis of your scalp. First, if the doctor waves his/her hand over your head and says that you have a fine hair density, run for the hills. Good metrics require scientific measurement and the science of densitometry as […]
Propecia is only for male patients treating male pattern baldness and it is the ideal drug to prevent or possibly reverse your hair loss. I would say that you are too young to consider any type of hair transplant. At the very least, you should try the medications and then develop a Master Plan for […]
I understand the need to maintain your appearance as an actor. Some character actors can establish a balding persona, so you can accept a balding fate and still make it in the movies or theater. As actors reflect the male population, half of all men will be balding by the time they are 45 years […]
