Is it worth the money?

I started stem cell injections February 2026, I paid $5k for 3 months of injections going once a month along with taking minoxidil and a DHT serum daily +vitamins and a DHT shampoo and conditioner. I have one stem shot left and I’m done with my treatments, then I’m left to apply the Minoxidil, DHT blocker serum and vitamins daily after. They say it takes anywhere from 6-9 months for full results. I’m 3 months in. Do you think my money was invested well or should I save for a HT? And is any person that has tried stem cell rejuvenation that had great results?

I could care less about my hair line for now, just miss having fuller dense hair..😪

Back ground: started noticing thinning at 23, but it increased rapidly by the time I was 25 I was buzzing my hair. Now 27.

Is it joever for me

2 years on monoxide compounded 6mg plus 1g finasteride daily. Started dutasteride 2.5 months ago (once a week), have been shedding 2-3cm hairs consistently - if I grabbed my scalp rn, a bunch would appear on my hand.

Is it too late for me based off the lack of density over the years or is there still hope?

Mom donates her own hair to create a custom wig for her 3-year-old with alopecia

Mom Rubi spent months growing her hair out so it could be made into a wig for her daughter Lorelai, who was diagnosed with alopecia areata at one year old. When the wig was finally placed on Lorelai's head, she lit up – and hasn't stopped combing her hair since. Rubi said she cried her eyes out just watching her daughter's face, knowing the hair came from her. A really beautiful moment between a mom and her little girl.

Scalp Skin Barrier Health: A Subtle Factor in Hair Follicle Resilience

Been diving into some research lately, and it struck me how little we talk about the scalp's skin barrier in relation to hair loss. Most discussions focus on DHT or blood flow, but it turns out a compromised barrier might be quietly impacting our follicles. Studies are showing that when the skin barrier is weakened, it can lead to increased inflammation and oxidative stress right at the scalp. This environment isn't ideal for hair growth, and it could potentially make follicles more susceptible to miniaturization or premature shedding. I found a paper that discussed how ceramides, crucial components of the skin barrier, play a role in maintaining follicle integrity. It's making me rethink my whole approach to scalp care.

Been about a month now since off of fin

Sides persist. Low libido, half erection at best, mild anhedonia. I taking fin about a month ago since body wasn't responding well with it. I can't help but think about it as something permanent. I feel so envious of those who took fin and didn't get sides. Like why did it had to be me? I took all precautions for oral fin, cutting in half and taking it every other day for two weeks and still, this drug has been the worst decision i could ever take.

I don't know if I should just accept that its going to be this way the rest of my life or keep a little bit of hope.

Spartan Hair Care is a Scam

Just posting this so someone actually reads before buying. Please upvote so others don't fall for this scam.

If you are on the fence I really want to caution you that they are not legit. Their product does not work and they will not honor their money back guarantee as you have to use the product for three months with a return window of less than three months. Once you purchase you will constantly get sales emails. I probably get two-three a week to try to get you to spend more constantly.

Please just don't get scammed on massively overpriced snake oil like I was. I have before pictures and pictures every month after using the product daily with absolutely no growth at all.

Where to go for a Hair Transplant (Raleigh)?

Seeking advice: Long-time lurker, first time posting something like this. I've been quietly dealing with hair loss for a few years and finally got to the point where I'm ready to do something about it. I live in Raleigh but I would travel if necessary. Has anyone here actually had a procedure done in raleigh?

1 Year on Topical Min/Fin

1 year ago, I gave up the nutrafol/supplements/red light BS and got a script for topical Fin/Min. Fair to say it’s working—barber said he’d not seen improvement like this before

Documenting my journey using PP405 and not using anything else

TLDR: I’m losing hair and I am not on any other hair loss meds due to their side effects or them not working. I will be documenting my journey using PP405. I also have a beautiful mole near my hairline which is a perfect reference point

HAIRLOSS JOURNEY

- I started losing hair from age 17. I am now 23. For the first 4 years I was the only one that noticed it, but it’s recently got to the point where other people have been pointing it out.

- It started with a receding hairline but now my hair in just generally getting a lot thinner

MEDS TRIED

- I have tried pretty much every single hair loss medication. I’m currently not taking anything. Below is the list of things I’ve tried and why I stopped taking them

  1. ⁠DHT meds

- oral finasteride

- Low dose oral finasteride

- Topical finasteride

- Low dose topical finasteride

- Oral dutasteride

- Dutasteride mesotherapy (injected directly into scalp)

- Saw palmetto

- Ketoconozole

- RU58841

- Pyrilatimide / KX826 (topical androgen receptor antagonist)

- every single med I’ve tried where I’ve tried to block the action of DHT has resulted in the same side effect - GYNO

- That’s right, even something as week as saw palmetto gave me the same side effect

- I’ve tried oral anastrazole and topical DHT gel around my areolas to combat this - they didn’t help

- The reasons I know this side effect is not a placebo is because:

  1. ⁠I didn’t know this was even a potential side effect when I started

  2. ⁠It was confirmed with mammography just on the left side, which is where my symptoms are

- I’ve been trying to figure out why I am getting this effect and how to stop it, and after my years of deep research I’ve come to the following conclusion:

- My tiddies love them some DHT

- So yeah, anything that stops my DHT from working either by lowering the amount or stopping it from binding, even when used topically causes this 1 in a million side effect

  1. topical minoxidil with topical tretinoin and microneedling

- Did this for a year with no benefit - no increased shedding at any point and hair loss progressed as same rate so stopped using

- so I’ve been on nothing for my hair for a few months and I’m just watching it slowly go away.

- however I’ve just received my PP405 so I’m going to try document my journey using it and nothing else.

DOCUMENTING

- I will be starting with the first application tomorrow

- attached are the baseline pictures. As you can see I have a beautiful mole near my hairline to track progression

- I will do update pictures in same lighting and location

- I wish I could get a trichometer to make this as objective as possible but unfortunately moneys a bit tight right now. I will be starting my summer job soon, so I may invest in one when I get my first paycheck

- If you don’t hear from me in 2 weeks assume one of 2 things:

- win win either way

Note - on all the PP405 posts, all the comments are ‘that’s not the real PP405’ - we know already, it’s just easier to call it that
