    biotin and other supplements won't recover an actively thinning head.

    your best bet is minoxidil. it'll maximize your hair length and thickness. revive some dead follicles and/or extremely thin follicles on the verge of death. but even that won't stop the issue.

    the issue is your genetics. your hair follicles are sensitive to the dht that is created and released through testosterone. the only way to stop that is to use finasteride/dutasteride which inhibits dht and that is dangerous shit. it's pretty chancy. I did it myself and I wish I hadn't. Despite the incredible gains I had(which have faded since the last time I used it. year or so ago).

    it's just not worth it. dht is too important. you are looking up this stuff about fixing it because you're panicking but eventually you will run across fin/minox as an option if you haven't already and I'm warning you it's not worth it.

    eat better, maybe used minox but don't use finasteride/dutasteride, ever. unless you're willing to risk your health(not in life-threatening ways, but quality of life ways).

    I'm just hoping for it to be iron levels, thyroid or just simply thin hair. it's been like this for 7 years or more I'm just afraid it'll get worst by 28-30.

    god dam. wanted to stay beautiful forever

    My man Draz, just bite the bullet and get a hair transplant. You say money ain't an issue, I know someone that got it and his hair is legit awesome now. He used to be thinning since his early 20s.

    Why waste the money before even trying hair stimulation products like Revita or Rogaine?

    Btw Draz if you decide to get a hair growth stimulation shampoo, you had to let it sit on your hair for like 10-15 minutes, so the its ingredients get absorbed in the skin properly. Not just wash it after 30 sec.

    Go and inform you about hairloss minoxidil/finasterid on sites like "hairlosstalk.com". There you have real specialist, way more informed than your average dermatologist.

    if i were you:

    1. try the "big 3" = minox, fin, ket-shampoo. Inform you about fin and its side-effects (ca. 2-4% have side-effects)

    2. Never consider making a hair transplantation BEFORE STOPPING hairloss

    DHT is one of the main androgenic hormones and inhibiting it has wide implications from psychological to physiological one. DHT is responsible for muscle density, body hair, erection strength, voice thickness, etc. On the psychological side of things, the picture looks even worse


    DHT regulates alpha and beta adrenergic receptors.
    DHT may increase alpha-1-receptor density.
    DHT may decrease glutamate activity and increases mGLU7 expression (which increases GABA release)
    DHT increases serotonin 5-HT1A receptor density by influencing A1-Adr.Receptors.
    DHT promotes serotonin 5-HT1A/1B activity and may reduce aggression in the presence of serotonin. Although this may easily be over ridden by the pro-adrenergic effects of DHT.
    DHT increases beta-endorphin release by ^ 5-HT1A receptor indirect activation.
    DHT facilitates the release of Epinephrine (adrenaline).
    DHT increases cyclic AMP.
    DHT blocks estrogen-induced prolactin release.
    DHT reduces serotonin and serotonin receptors by inhibiting estrogen influence in the Brain. (but mainly acting to oppose 5-HT2A,2C and 5-HT4 receptors)
    DHT increases Mitogen-Activated-Protein Kinase (MAPK) which leads to a variety of molecular changes and genomic changes as well as neural-changes; decreased serotonin activity in the brain and periphery.
    DHT increases GABA and GABA-A (neurosteroid-specific) receptor expression.
    DHT increases NMDA-receptors in the Hippocampus.
    DHT increases Ca3 (Calcium) evoked Acetylcholine Function(AcH release).
    DHT increases nervous system strength and regulates blood pressure.

    You can look up individually the function of every neurotransmitter/receptor cited above, to grasp how moronic taking DHT inhibitors is, in exchange they barely even work. A safer alternative IMO is taking inhibitors for the 5α-reductases enzyne, which is responsible for the conversion of DHT, like astaxanthin. The libido takes a small hit, but the substance is one of the more powerful anti-oxidants known beyond its inhibitory functions.
