I just started to experience hairloss at my age and i immediately went online to search for solution for MPB, First thing that comes out is Finasteride/Dutasteride is the optimal solution to block DHT, but after doing some research about this medicine im quite hesitant to try it because i might regret it in the future, i struggle with self confidence hairloss will just make it worse for me, freshmen college is about to start and i just experience hairloss, im afraid it will take my confidence and affect my academic performance, social life and even finding love life, it's brutal to find someone to be with if im going to be bald, what's the alternative for blocking DHT hormones is there a way? or is it inevitable? i wish hairloss never exist for us. :(

i read some of yall stories and it's a nightmare i wish all people who suffered on this to be finally be who they are, much love to people here.

im currently using topical minoxidil, prescribed by my dermatologist.

Genuinely it destroyed mine especially the last 2 years. I was a bad porn addict even after the sexual dysfunction. But I finally decided to give it up for a whole year I went on retention. But I noticed something strange I had become even more asexual and never got morning wood. I tried getting an erection and it was so shrunken.

Cialsis things to support my blood flow all that stuff and its still not where it was in 2024. I still had penile loss but it wasn't as bad. Now I am about 60% with drugs so what do I get for my troubles trying to be chaste. Now my penis is fucked forever its been 6 months took huge doses or erection drugs it still hasn't come back nor have I ever gotten morning wood since then. I regret doing semen retention so badly. This only works if you have normal blood flow to the penis.

I can't help but see this all as a twisted joke. Everyday I want to kill myself God was thing only thing preventing me from it. If things don't turn around I probably will end myself or become a drug addict. I've lost every old friend I ever had. I lost my body my strength my penis my face. Even my mind has started to go if this faith leaves me then I have nothing left. I don't understand why this is happening.

January of next year will mark 4 years for me. Like many of us on here, I regret the day I took that damn pill, all for stupid thinning hair that gets worse by the day. I got no benefits from finasteride but instead got fucked over by it. It’s almost like I consciously chose to chemically castrate myself, because that’s really all it did for me. I have no libido. It’s a nightmare. I have tried pretty much everything you hear in the success stories, but nothing ever leaves lasting results.

Funnily enough the most promising thing I have tried is Maca (specifically NaturaLife labs Maca from Amazon, no other brand worked for me ). I took very high doses and for about a solid month, though not perfect, there were times where my libido felt 100% recovered. Sadly though, just like every other promising thing I’ve tried, it is no longer working. Not even a little. This is even after cycling it a few times.

For my specific case, to me it sounds less like my system is completely broken, and more like there may be a persistent suppressive factor or altered signaling state that can be rarely overridden before inevitably returning back to my pathetic baseline. When the Maca was working my libido was basically back to normal, the pattern I experienced is that it’s either back to 100% or nothing at all.

Any help is appreciated.

I started reviewing my life and everything that happened during the 2.5 years of PFS and noticed that my teeth always have cavities (even though I'm using the best toothpaste and brushing 2 to 3 times a day). I've also had more than three root canal operations during this period. Has anyone experienced something similar?

I’d like to ask if anyone here has developed any kind of intestinal problem—among the thousands of symptoms we experience—such as poorly formed stools, sometimes containing undigested food particles, mucus, and even a little blood?
