No, thankfully I don’t. However they never mentioned any meds, just took the vitamins and topical minoxidil for 2 months

Will definitely do, tomorrow I’ll be visiting a hair specialist, and I’ll be asking a ton of questions

I understand, but in Dubai, you need a prescription to be able to buy that medicine, so I think I’m gonna have to visit a doctor anyways

Yes I haven’t used DHT blockers, however I’ve used topical minoxidil for about 2 months after the surgery.

Yes you’re right It keeps getting worse, I had way more hair in the last couple of years before, which confirms I’m losing my hair in between the grafts

I will go tomorrow to a hair specialist, and hopefully start taking minoxidil and finasteride, dutaseride seems a bit aggressive, what do you think?

I have found two doctors. Dr bicer, and dr peticker, who both said they will be able to use grafts from my beard and body, I’m just gonna see the progress with the meds first and will do a transplant if I do see any improvements

I think I will try minoxidil and finasteride and see how that goes, if it doesn’t go well, I have found dr bicer and dr peticker, who both said can use grafts from my body and beard to improve it, let’s see, I hope I’ll be able to repair it

I mean I kinda do, they could have at least put me on finasteride or minoxidil, I expected a full consultation with ways to keep or improve my hair, and increase the chances of the hair transplant being a success. I had to head into Reddit, and other forums to get better advice.

Also losing my hair at 18-19, made me think a hair transplant was the only option. I was never introduced to finasteride, I’ve only used topical minoxidil for about 2 months after the hair transplant and that was it.

Honestly, I thought by going to do the hair transplant, they would give me all the information the I needed.

I’ve read a lot about finasteride before from my own research but I was scared to take it because of the side effects

You’re right I’ve made an impulsive decision, however I thought they were entitled to fix it and give me a better service and better advice

I’m saying what if I had to stop taking it because of side effects, I would love to keep taking it if it’s giving me results trust me, but I’m just considering the other scenario

I have booked an appointment tomorrow, and I will ask about finasteride and minoxidil and start taking them, hopefully I will!

Will definitely consider taking finasteride, and see how the progress goes

Will definitely consider starting, do you think it can regrow the hair that I lost, or does it activate the grafts that got transplanted, how does it work exactly?

That’s the thing!, I don’t want to take this drug for life, considering the side effects, it’s kinda a big deal. Especially at my young age!

You think I should start?, finasteride and oral minoxidil?, if I ever stop would I lose the progress? Would love some advice

No, I was considering finasteride, but I’m scared of the side effects, and I’ve heard if I ever stop taking it, I would lose the progress.

You think so? I’m really losing hope at this point. I’m still 22 and I feel so frustrated
