Has anyone here ever had any experience with hair thinning/loss,

You should see a dermatologist. He\She will probably prescribe a blood test first to see if you're missing basic stuff like Zinc and Vitamin D and then prescribe supplements (not drugs). Mine also gave me a shampoo and Minoxidil.

In terms of lifestyle, reducing stress is the most obvious thing. Like, if you do go to a doctor, that's likely the first thing you'll be asked about.

Immediately I would assume stress is the culprit, since I feel like I have been stressed for so long it has become a default.

That does seem tricky to remedy though since the solution is probably going to be a lot more abstract than "eat more X" or exercise more often or something.

I guess I'll work on researching stress a bit and see about finding a dermatologist.

Lifestyle changes won't change the amount of DHT your body produces. Just ignore it.

The 4chan way of dealing with problems

>but could be swayed from that stance if enough people spoke positively of them.

I speak positively of them, never had any problems other than not taking finasteride 6 months earlier which resulted in me putting up with years of frustration and the pain and financial blow of a hair transplant to patch things up later.

Is DHT really the end all be all of hair loss?

It seems as though there are a lot of factors, but I could be mistaken.

Also there *should* be some sort of way to address DHT production right?

I am definitely taking this as a wake up call and becoming more zealous in drinking water/exercise/diet etc etc

I will look up all that oil bullshit... Seems dubious but if it works, it works.

Thanks "senpai"

99% of hair loss is genetic and there ain't nothing you can do about it. The other 1% might be skin-disease-based and treatable.

Earlier in the year I was under a total panic that I was losing my hair. Asked 4chan about it, and got a lot of these replies. I had a couple things wrong with me - I was throwing up most mornings (kidney problems), and I was heavily picking at my scalp. I noticed hair falling out every time I touched my head, it seemed.

Well, I got my kidney issues under control, and started using Nizoral shampoo. Now the thinning areas look full and robust again - my hairdresser has even commented. So, try Nizoral, check your health, and good luck.

This might be a long shot but could you elaborate on your kidney issues? Mostly the symptoms and the treatment.

You're a man now OP. Welcome to the club.

Do you masturbate every day? Sometimes more than once per day?

>>17589770
OP again, yes I masturbate every day usually, 1-3 times a day is the norm.

Is fapping in anyway connected with hair loss?
