Have you consulted a healthcare professional?

Breathe, its NOT the end of the world that it now seems. My vast experience suggests 3 options:

1. Shave your head. Its so common nowadays in young men and may suit you.

2. See a qualified Nutritional Therapist that specialises in the area for lack of key nutrients .

3. Avoid reported drugs like finasteride which may cause serious health side effects. That probably means avoid expensive hair clinics which go down that route.

Good luck and feel free to contact me privately if you wish.

It runs in alot of my family.years ago when I was still buying bodybuilding and health mags,books, anything I could get my hands on I found this and take it to this day.i,m 51 and had similar problems like you in my 20,s.There,s a natural supplement called Saw Palmetto extract.the one I take is 320mg standardized to 85-95% fatty acids.it helps stop testosterone turning into dehydrotestostorone which causes prostate problems and hair loss in males prone to this.Doctors will either tell you or not even mention it because the billiondollar pharmaceutical industry doesn't make any money unless finastride or minoxidil is prescribed.Nizirol shampoo can also help this.
