My doctor prescribed me saw palmetto before all the exams hormonal sperm ecc before starting fin …I started saw palmetto which lowers dht by 35% What i feel Is improved erection quality, my Dick Is hard as steel, more libido, and i experience getting hard during the day … Does this mean that if i use fin, probably i will feel the same ? Or even better?

Saw Palmetto is a weak DHT blocker while finasteride is a stronger one. I would expect that some people taking Saw Palmetto without sexual side effects might be better on finasteride.

But is there anyone in Southeast US willing to do transplants on 17 year old? I have nothing good going for me, I’m not responding to Minox and my dermatologist refused me finasteride so I’m fucked, I tried Nizoral and it didn’t do much, both of my temples are thin but my right temple is missing and the skin seems somewhat scarred for no reason, my hair is so thin at the sides that I can actually see my scalp and so can make out it’s cracked texture. Is there anything I can do until then?

Please don’t look for a hair transplant at 17. This could be the worst mistake you can ever do. If you keep looking, you will find a sleazy doctor to do it and you will regret the decision for the rest of your life.

Thanks for lifting your eyebrows and allowing your forehead to show the creases. 1.5 months is too early to see results but there are small hairs on the left side which appear stronger than they were in the before picture so this is a hopeful sign.

I’m 23 and 6 months old at a nw 2.5 right now. I’m not trying to get a full hair transplant back to square one but maybe one to fill in my temples a little more. Would I have to wait till 25?

You need to find a good doctor who can predict your long term balding pattern. I tell people that a little transplant is like being a little pregnant, no such thing. The impact of a hair transplant, regardless of its size, is significant on your long term future (see here: https://baldingblog.com/need-master-plan-think-hair-transplants-photos/. ). I think that as you look at this picture, your plan should be worked with an honest and capable doctor who can tell you more about you than you know, including getting a HAIR CHECK test ( https://baldingblog.com/haircheck-test-how-it-is-done-and-what-its-value/ ).

I am a late 20’s male and I had a question regarding some finasteride side effects.

I was on minoxidil foam for about 6 months, but because of the shedding not stopping and seeing drastic hair loss during the last 2 months, I decided to bite the bullet and try finasteride 1mg. I’ve been on it for about a month and I think I am definitely starting to feel the side effect of erectile dysfunction.

Let me preface this by saying that I’ve never been someone who could have sex 4-5 times in a night or even felt the need or urge to masturbate once a day. I’ve also experienced occasional (once every 10-20 times) instances of not being able to stay hard during intercourse. However, the struggle recently has been something that is definitely noticeable and significant. I recently started dating someone in the last few weeks and I’ve already ran into issues of erectile dysfunction multiple times, which is a lot more frequent than ever before. However, the most alarming issue is during masturbation. I’ve NEVER struggled to stay erect during masturbation, but after starting finasteride, I’ve noticed that I am struggling to even get erect and stay erect for more than a minute. In regards to sexual intercourse, luckily I’ve had some viagra that I acquired a long time ago and I’ve used that a few times to combat this issue, but I don’t see that as a permanent solution.

Has anyone experienced something similar to this before? If you did, did you just stop or continue to take finasteride to see if it will pass?

From what I’ve read, it seems like most of you all have had little or no side effects from taking finasteride 1mg daily so I wanted to see if any of you are avoiding finasteride and finding success.

Your story is not uncommon. You probably have sexual side effects from finasteride. You might try reducing it to one pill every 4 days for 3 weeks. If the ED goes away, increase it to 1 pill every 3 days, and after another 3 weeks, one pill every two days and stay there if there is no ED. Half the dose is 80% as effective on hair as a full dose. Just a suggestion.

This is a 100 days of using finasteride, minoxidil and dermaroller (once a week). These changes are dramatic.
