Transgender Teen Wants a Hair Transplant at 18 Years Old
So, at 17 years old, I’m in between a Norwood 2 and 3 hairline and was aiming to get a transplant. I understand that this is very young, but I’m transgendered and the hairloss has stopped with the use of hormone replacement therapy so I was curious as to if I’d be at least able book a surgery date when I’m 17, to have the surgery when I’m 18. I’d have parental consent too if that’s important.
Yes, you can do it if you find a surgeon willing to take you on. You run risk for balding based upon any testosterone production, but if you have your testicles removed, that would mitigate that risk. I am not an expert on the effectiveness of the drugs you are presently using without orchiectomy. I would let your doctors tell you those answers.
