minoxidil once a day 2.5 Dut daily clobetasol solution twice a week , i will get my derminator soon and start 1mm weekly needling.( tho i used to dermaroll with 0.5 weekly for quite some time and 1.5mm dermaroll for 4-5 months)
And if this does not improve my hair i will throw the towel in
born 06 first quarter . 4-5 months away from 20
hair was pretty bad from birth? minoxidil, prp, mesotherapy at 15-16, started minoxidil at 16 twice daily . switched the dose back to once a day after subpar results at 1 year mark. finasteride right around my 18th birthday. 1.5 years of 1.25 fin. 6months on dut currently first month was 2.5 loading every day and from this month on 2.5 ed . I also started clobetasol 2 weeks ago twice a week. At total of 4 sessions i would say i used like 25-30ml of it not abusing but scalp coverage. Not sure if clobetasol will be useful for anything but hail mary yknow, desperate times call for desperate measures . i think i have like 40 hairs per cm^2. really depressing. i stopped stressing over it last 1.5 years but i can clearly see from videos back then when i was like 16-17 that i was depressed af.
Below are some photos i wrote the time of the images on them.
some photos i have dots on scalp etc its mostly because these were either taken before starting a treatment or post prp post mesotherapy etc. also minoxidil
bottom 5 photo was taken today. not seen on photos but i can see small hairs growing on the hairline but not overall scalp. maybe i cant see them myself? feels like coping
if the nuclear stack of 2.5-5mg (maybe even 7.5mg) low-dose oral minoxidil every day once, dutasteride 0.5mg-2.5mg every day once, ketoconazole 2% 2-3 times a week, some topical anti-androgen (for anti-androgens, choose safety over efficiency.) and dermarolling canNOT fix your situation, then shave that shit off. I am on the meds but buzzed rn, if meds bring my hair back it is all good, if not then I am already at peace with baldness even if it is NOT something good, you have to be stoic at the end of the day. Live your life and ALWAYS refer to a proper medical professional if you choose to go the path of treatment listed above and ask about these medicines, not for but about. I am precisely the same age as you my man, men may be weirded and girls can make fun of you but these are the hands you are dealt with in life. 20 years later, you won’t give a shit about hair or your looks as much but your life will still be important. bye, from another fellow 20 year old. this is NOT the end of your life, just keep that in mind. IF there are those that make fun of you, don’t worry they will end up in your shoes irrelevant of whether they are men/women. a significant portion of men lose their hair to an extent up to their 35 and so do women’s facial structures changes in negative respect to their attractiveness. focus on academics, careers etc. and let those fall while you rise. and yes, balding at early age makes you 10x more mature. but in my belief you should, believe that the hair will return, placebo is a powerful drug at the end of the day
also I am not sure whether the clobetasol propionate that you use is suitable for your scalp, check with a derm. it seems too potent. from my research, it seems it is reserved for severe cases of eczema, SD, psoriasis etc..
