How old r u.

Old enough to know better

OP - do what you gotta do because looks do matter but it may come at the price of side effects and always chasing youth.  Don't let it become a complex is what I'm saying.

Ha-Ha! Wait until your 65 and things REALLY start falling apart!  Some days you wake up with pain. Some days you wake up with REAL pain!

 

Relax and enjoy your youth!

I relate to this. Not being able to control a condition that threatens your life is no easy thing to accept. 

I observed myself avoiding that aspect of myself for many years unconsciously until it reached a point that it could no longer be ignored.

Do you find that it’s easier to avoid facing your fears as well?

I think something's up. Anyone who seems to be below 30 seems to feel the same way. I think all the poisons they're feeding us is doing this to the brain. Thinking at their age they're old, regardless of what's happening physically. It's not bone related and related to the skeletal system where real aging takes place it seems to be psychological.

Thanks guys. No hard feelings. It was an emotional moment this morning going to the dermatologist and having it be confirmed that I am balding. I still have a lot of hair, but it just sucks to see my young self slowly die. I am gonna research if that medication will affect my dick. I have never had issues with my dick and don’t want to cause any with hair growth medication. I will try to decide whether to take the medication now and catch it early or to let my hair just do what it naturally will.

IIRC, most dudes take the medication and wait it out a bit to see if there’s any dick side effects and if there IS any — they just drop it all together with no actual damage to libido, erection etc

Did you know there are herbs like rosemary and others, I'd have to look, that grows hair. Probably won't influence you though because most people don't realize the same herbs are probably in these medications. They even have companies that sell herbal compounds for hair growth. Just an idea I'm throwing out there so you know you have safer options.

I'll just stick to my natural solutions that make me stay young. I learnt from others and I try to pass on the information, but people give me flack and prefer pills, so I let them be and then the cycle goes on where other medications are needed to combat what the previous medication did. Then they say, I'm just getting old. 100 yr olds are doing marathons. It's a personal choice.

Do you have to take a pill every day for life?

[Hojo]

You can use these feelings as a way to grow.

No one can help you with aging. Your hair will fallout then your teeth will fall out then your limbs will fail then you will not be able to walk then you will have everyone do everything for you then your lungs will stop and you will die. You will not be able to see you will not be able to hear you will not be able to feel.

Cry about all these right now

This is advice you give to somebody whose actually aging. Not some young 27yr old whose been brainwashed. 

That advice works from the moment a person hits puberty

[puporing]

I advise shifting your focus on your body appearance to your being. Though I understand that the body still has a function in this world. And I can assure you that you can be perfectly attractive and/or respectable if you went bald one day.

People who turn away from you just because you are bald I mean.. really, ask yourself, is that really what you want to associate with? 

There's much to uncover for you there that you haven't yet found based on this question. I hope that you would consider this as a gift to you rather than a criticism.

I've somehow always envisioned myself peaking in my late 30s (I'm 27 now). But of course, I started losing my hair when I was 18, so maybe that has something to do with it. Bodybuilders also tend to peak around that age.

But I also felt like a passed a threshold at 25 where I started to feel distinctly older than the people in the 18-24 range. I'm very skeptical of medical hairloss treatments, especially hormone modulators.

I am not doing the pills, just the foam (rogaine). You don’t have to take them for life, I plan on using it for a year more.
