Thinning hair but not MPB

ad

I had a previous post but it turned into a joke of a thread, was my fault for not being concise enough.

  1. Is it possible for hair to thin all over without receding at temples or being in a pattern from MPB?

  2. Is it possible to be losing hair without seeing any come out on your hands or on your pillow?

  3. If I'm 38 - should I have noticed if prone to MPB by now or can it happen at a later age too? Haven't lost any hair yet.. Could be paranoia but my hair looks thinner all over..

Thanks guys

Yes your hair can thin without receding. It's only certain steroids that cause this for me, surprisingly masteron is not one of them. I don't notice any hairs on the pillow but I keep my hair buzzed down so? It will come back but it takes about a year for me.

  1. Yes, it's called diffuse thinning
  2. Yes, as hair follicles get attacked by dht, they don't just die on the spot. They grow back thinner and thinner until they are almost invisible which gives the appearance of balding. Although, imo you should notice some increased fallout ...maybe it is subtle enough that you are missing it.
  3. Not necessarily, some guys go bald in their 20's and some in their early to late 40's.

I saw ur previous post and masteron is probably worst steroid for hairloss. People not genetically disposed lose hair on thst drug. If u do not have mpb gene, ur hair shoukd thicken back up after cycle. I would drop mast, that is why they recommend test only first cycle so u can see how u respond to various compounds. It could be the mast or it coukd be that u are predisposed, but u wont know now until u complete cycle. Unfortunately, the hair growth cycles are of long duration so it will take awhile to notice any increased thickening. I would still use nizoral for the time being.

Thanks great answer!

Hopefully diffuse thinning grows back easier than MPB?

Yes good idea, I had dropped the Mast and EQ a few weeks ago as I got too hungry and kept getting told to go back to Test only... Just thought I should mention them as they could cause it as ran them for about 5 weeks.

For next cycle, is Primo less damaging on hair?
Something like 250 Test, 500 Primobolan?

"Hopefully diffuse thinning grows back easier than MPB?" - with MPB - once it's gone...it ain't never coming back...the 'baldness' in the term is the clue....however you can take Finasteride, and while your dick will feel like a wet noodle - some of your hair can grow back over time - but once you stop the Fin...good-bye new hair.

One big downside of the proscar / finasteride is that even when you stop taking it and the hair loss starts again the sexual side effects may persist. Read lots of reviews on it. I have a year supply of the stuff and I haven't touched it after doing more and more reading on it.

I will say every report I have read states that it works as described, but most reports also state decreased libido and erectile dysfunction. Do some homework and use it at your own risk. I decided it isn't for me.

I'm not sure why you would advise me to do some homework and use it at my own risk. I thought my view of Finasteride was pretty clear in my post. Finasteride does have some positive benefits - it is the only drug known to actually reduce the size of the prostate in BPH (Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia)- it is prescribed for that purpose by many doctors, however the dose is much smaller than used for hair growth.

I meant to reply to the OP.

You actually have the dosages reversed. 5mg daily for enlarged prostate, 1mg daily for hair loss.

Yes - you are right.

That's a good question. It is a dht derivative which would make it seem more likely to cause hairloss, but from anecdotal reports that I have seen, that is not the case. I've personally used primo before and didnt notice any hairloss--at least nothing that an equivalent dose of test would cause. I will actually be running primo and test e this summer

I'm one who started going bald at 20 now I'm 30 and i still have some on top but more like George Costanza from Seinfeld

Ha, Seinfeld was a good show. Btw, I think Kramer could have ran masteron and not lost any hair
