I'm not 100% sure that I am balding but my hairline has definitely receded a decent amount. I am concerned about the sexual side effects as well as the potential for gynecomastia (I had surgery a few years back to have gynecomastia removed) but I am determined to keep my hair and these are risks I am willing to take. I have heard that you shouldn't take finasteride until after you have fully developed but I don't want to wait until it's too late. Can I take Finasteride at this point? Thanks!
Answer: Hair Growth Basics--prp, progesterone, hair transplantation, finasteride This needs an in-person evaluation. I suggest seeing a hair loss expert now to evaluate and go over your condition and provide you information about your best treatment options. There are great non-invasive options like prp/progesterone and/or hair transplantation. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Finasteride at 19; subdermal Depo injection technique.Englewood Cliffs New Jersey In my opinion, finasteride is the single best agent to prevent future hair loss and possibly obtain regrowth in a 19 year old with androgenic alopecia. It blocks conversion to DHT. We have also found the addition of PRP to be a helpful addition. Find a hair loss expert. Ask to see photos.

Answer: Better than Finasteride Finasteride has been known to cause various side effects after using the product, which are the result of hormone imbalances caused by standardized dosing of those medicines in oral form.

Answer: Starting fiansteride at 19 Before staring the drug finasteride, I always perform a HAIRCHECK which shows in great accuracy the amount of hair lost at the time the drug is started. IF no hair is lost, I advise against the drug. If hair is lost, then I remeasure the patient one year later to see the value and the benefit, if any.For young men with a history of Gynecomastia, the drug finasteride is not any more risk in your situation than any other young man your age
