@@Mohit-tm9zihey man, thank you & no worries! So, I’ve made tons of videos on the side effects so check them out. They’re rarer than people make out, but they do exist.

thank you bro, I just turned 20 and noticed considerable hair loss and thinning over the last 2 years. Have been getting more and more self conscious about it so planning on starting finasteride and minoxidil in the next few days.
It’s tough man, I felt so self conscious when mine was at its worst. Once I started treatment I felt a lot better though as I knew I was at least doing something about it. Thanks bro & wish you best of luck :)
Dude great video! Would be cool maybe you arleady did but to make a video on the pros and cons of a hair transplant vs topical treatment. Tempted to just say F it and fly to turkey lol
Thank you bro! Yes I can make a video explaining this, however, the basics are that unfortunately even with a transplant, to maintain a good result your surgeon will recommend you to be on treatment anyway :)
With me the problem was people didnt know how to promote it or display the info . I was skeptical at first worried the way people explained it had lack of information.I worried that it wasn't worth it based on the lack information they made it seem like at best it might just keep your hair temporarily so there im thinking theres side effects it might not even work and at best it will just keep the hair the way you haven't currently the worst part was thinking it might not even work and theres even a hair shedding period so i thought i dont know about this. i was just afraid it wasn't going to work and i had no idea it could be better than hair transplant in alot of cases because it returns the thickness of your hair even which way more special.
Yeah I get you mate. It can be tough to convey it all, particularly in short form content which a lot of the info is posted. I hope videos like this help to spread the full facts. I’ll go into further detail in my other videos too.

Brother love from India. Been following your videos thanks for keeping it real and not promoting useless serums and oil for some money. Waiting for your video on difference between finasteride and dutasteride. Do u have more risk of side effects on dutasteride. Does scalp massager work. Apart from finasteride minoxidil what works make videos on that. Redensyl serums and oral minoxidil which is so famous. Even i follow the same thing like u i put minoxidil only on my temples and front part not on entire scalp and i hop onto 1mg finasteride
Hey man! Thanks for the kind words :) Of course, I only ever talk facts, backed by science. I find it awful that people try and sell scam hair loss products that could literally leave a guy bald thinking it’ll help him. Yes for sure, I’ve actually recently posted updates on my TikTok & Instagram about a self-experiment I’m running, talking dutasteride once a week, and seeing how I react.

@@YugPatel10yeah, I can see some diffuse thinning up top, you have an amazing unique hairline though man, it looks cool! I think if you talk to your doctor & start finasteride or dutasteride, it could make a big difference.
Thanks Mate❤, you have more much information about these hair loses and it is really useful insanely for me🎉 I just have one thing to let you explain me more is about using the microneedling?
Thank you man! I show a tutorial in one of my other videos, but basically, you go for a depth of around 1-1.5mm and once weekly stamp the needles into the scalp in the balding areas to help it. Make sure you sterilise it beforehand.
People didn't and still some people alot don't explain finastride well especially for someone who doesnt truly have a clue if they would tell you that for sure it does work since the start and it returns the thickness of your temporarily thats insane thats really good if you still have the hair , thats really good for alot of androgenic alopecia cases. If people would explain that hair lie and nutrition is oxygen based and that the problem is on the inside the hair loss, if they would explain that your hair shrinks because of suffocation putting these things up front first. They waste too much time trying to look at the rare lower side of things oh it might just keep it the way you have thats the rare wide of things its much better than that , they also waste too much time on side effects alone and prostate dysfunction thing.
Thanks Brother, your efforts means a lot for me. This video clears most of my thoughts. But there is a request, you to make a video on the products you told in the video. Where to purchase and how to use. And my english is not very good. It's my secondary language. so just ignore it😅......

Hey buddy i have been using oral minoxidil 2.5mg tablet daily and topical minoxidil 10% +finas 0.1% daily once from last 2 months. I could see only hair growth has improved but not hair regrowth. Can you guide me should i need to add finasteride 1mg as well along with my ongoing treatments
Great video, but i have a problem. I'm using minoxidil for almost 3 years and it makes my hairs kind of greasy, and I don't want to shampoo every day. Any solutions ?
Thanks man. The one I use from Manual is pretty good & quick drying. Which one do you use at the moment? I think Derek from more plates more dates makes a quick drying non-greasy one if you’re not in the Uk or Brazil to order Manual like I use.
@@user-xu1sg6de6w You can bro, but make sure you talk to you doctor first, or get a free consultation with Manual, at the link in the description. The side effects are definitely something that get blown out of proportion, although they do happen. But, you’ve got to remember, someone who suffers is 10x more likely to write about it on the internet, than someone who has good results. But definitely do your own research & decide what’s right for you :)
i think I'm not a responder to dutasterid cause after taking dutasterid i got scalp inflammation which even worse than dht tiny pimples all over the scalp and create more dandruff
What should I do if finasteride hasn’t helped me? Im 22 and it will be one year on July 11, since I started oral finasteride 1 mg. My hair is still falling like crazy, never even had a shedding phase, just constant hair loss; scalp appears much more visible now and I think my left temple is starting to recede even more. I’ve basically lost all hope
Sorry to hear this bro. Definitely talk to your doctor or dermatologist to fully analyse what’s going on. I’d also recommend getting your blood work checked for any deficiencies, but if all is ok & you’re still losing ground, maybe it’s time for dutasteride.
Finasteride can Take anywhere from 18-24 months before it's efficacy on an individual can be accurately accessed. But no improvement at all after 12 months is concerning. Your hair loss might be more aggressive than normal and thus you might need to try more potent things like dutasteride or topical androgen disruptors like fluridil, spironolactone or ru58841. If you're currently using topical Minoxidil you can try switching over to oral Minoxidil or if you'd prefer to stick with topical you can try mixing the topical solution with tretinoin and micro needling.
I’d say it can definitely get to a point where it’s too far gone to save without a hair transplant for sure. Particularly the hairline area. But yeah 100% go talk to your doctor man, make sure it’s right for you.
@@Xtreme2kI’d always recommend talking to your doctor bro. My GP said see if it gets worse, so I just decided to take matters into my own hands and got a private consultation.
@@tomgillbanks alright thx a lot man really appreciate the content keep it up u will get tons of views, doc is booked for Friday, my dad has male pattern baldness but both my grandparents kept their hair they just had bad corners, do u reckon I’ll lose my hair or just have terrible corners?
@@Xtreme2kThank you! I really appreciate it :) It’s so hard to tell, like it’s such a lottery to want extent you’ll suffer. But best of luck with the doctor’s appointment & starting treatment 👊🏻
No sir, I use them, go the gym, and have seen nothing but progress. The only potential thing inhibiting DHT might do, is make lifting your absolute maximum weight a little trickier due to some fluctuations in neurosteroids. But in terms of putting on mass, no it’s all good.
I have to disagree . The natural route is the best route . I was 22 with thinning hair and i got a buzz cut to regrow it and my hairline was like vegeta but with no hair , i took biotin , Jamaican black castor oil , & jamaican black casot oil shampoo&conditioner , i worked out like 4 or 5 days a week , and drank alot of water and did not waste my seed and most important i prayed and asked Jesus to restore my hair and my hair line grew back better then my teen years and the bald spot on crown of head was filled in . Now if your looking for a natural treatment to block dht , you need to take sting nettle root . It is not natural to thin hair and blad . Doctors lie , nothing natural about . With God all things are possible.
Hey man my hair line was high as far as i could remember not that high like a little high around the corners i have gone through a strasfful event these past months my hair is a little bit thinner barely noticeable but my family is Bald i did some researches and they said that you can tell if you are balding if you loose fine shorter than 3cm hairs which unfortunately i do not like crazy but i do i did my research about treatment but really it is not for me dht is a good hormone and i am only 17 it is not that i am afraid i will not be consistent with it these treatment give me a feeling like i am fighting nature but in the other hand i want to keep my hair at least to 35😂 so do you think the process will be slow for me or i need to prepare myself and if the natural treatment root like scalp massage , coconut oil is bs or not Sorry for my bad English
Hey bro, no problem. So firstly I’d say go get your blood work checked for any deficiencies. Then speak to your doctor to get a proper diagnosis to check if it’s definitely male pattern baldness. Sorry to hear you went through a stressful event bro, hope you’re ok! :)
Yeah so I’d say staying away from DHT blockers is definitely a smart move at your age bro, so well done for doing your research on that. And that sounds like a good routine, honestly I think minoxidil is fine for people under 18 too. Just make sure you speak to your doctor about it first though :)
@@tomgillbanks but the problem is, I have retrograde alopecia, so my sides and back are thinning😭😭😭, dy think I should also apply minoxidil in those areas, or is that too much minoxidil and too high of risk for side effects.
@@suuwiiii it’s a tough call bro considering you’re so young. Sorry to hear this by the way. I’d talk to your doc & see what they say dude. Hope it goes ok though, sending my best wishes :)
@@user-qf6dj1bl1x still have some now, I’m actually tracking it on insta & TikTok @tom.gillbanks + @tom_gillbanks. I went through a big shed around the 1 year mark.
I need your help dudee I'm 17 years old and I'm having a receding hairline. My right part is so f😭 I started using minoxidil and it's been around 25 days since I began my journey with minoxidil ( 5% ) it dries out my hair as it contains alcohol in it. Right now I'm in a shedding phase but I'm too worried about loosing tons of hair . Can I use a derma stamp?
Hey bro, I’d say you’re doing the right thing by just using minoxidil right now, then when you’re 18, talk to your doctor about a DHT blocker. Yes dermastamping is great once a week, maybe try tretinoin too!
@@alexantoniou00 yeah, so I generally talk about them in the same breath, but topical is pretty close in effectiveness to oral finasteride, there’s just a lower chance of side effects on it, which can be awesome for guys who had an initial bad reaction to taking it in pill form. So yeah, I’d say it’s a great option. Manual, the guys I get it from actually offer a 2-in-1 topical minoxidil & finasteride solution, but I just choose oral fin for the convenience.
Let me guess, you are one of those "just save your head bro" guys, that refuse to even try to take care of their body. These treatments work for the majority of people, backed up by many studies, and it's what doctors suggest for hair loss.

@@tomgillbanks i hope so , let's just keep expectations realistic. At worse i just want hair loss to stop .
@@pooravsankhyan7700100%, and that is the case for most guys. Best of luck though man.
I have to disagree . The natural route is the best route . I was 22 with thinning hair and i got a buzz cut to regrow it and my hairline was like vegeta but with no hair , i took biotin , Jamaican black castor oil , & jamaican black casot oil shampoo&conditioner , i worked out like 4 or 5 days a week , and drank alot of water and did not waste my seed and most important i prayed and asked Jesus to restore my hair and my hair line grew back better then my teen years and the bald spot on crown of head was filled in . Now if your looking for a natural treatment to block dht , you need to take sting nettle root . It is not natural to thin hair and blad . Doctors lie , nothing natural about . With God all things are possible.
This is complete BS
@jacksonkeller2522 no it is not . Don't be mad
Hey man my hair line was high as far as i could remember not that high like a little high around the corners i have gone through a strasfful event these past months my hair is a little bit thinner barely noticeable but my family is Bald i did some researches and they said that you can tell if you are balding if you loose fine shorter than 3cm hairs which unfortunately i do not like crazy but i do i did my research about treatment but really it is not for me dht is a good hormone and i am only 17 it is not that i am afraid i will not be consistent with it these treatment give me a feeling like i am fighting nature but in the other hand i want to keep my hair at least to 35😂 so do you think the process will be slow for me or i need to prepare myself and if the natural treatment root like scalp massage , coconut oil is bs or not
Sorry for my bad English
Hey bro, no problem.
So firstly I’d say go get your blood work checked for any deficiencies. Then speak to your doctor to get a proper diagnosis to check if it’s definitely male pattern baldness.
Sorry to hear you went through a stressful event bro, hope you’re ok! :)
Wb rosemary oil + Microneedling + ketoconazole as im 15, will this be quite effective?
Yeah so I’d say staying away from DHT blockers is definitely a smart move at your age bro, so well done for doing your research on that.
And that sounds like a good routine, honestly I think minoxidil is fine for people under 18 too. Just make sure you speak to your doctor about it first though :)
@@tomgillbanks but the problem is, I have retrograde alopecia, so my sides and back are thinning😭😭😭, dy think I should also apply minoxidil in those areas, or is that too much minoxidil and too high of risk for side effects.
@@suuwiiii it’s a tough call bro considering you’re so young. Sorry to hear this by the way. I’d talk to your doc & see what they say dude. Hope it goes ok though, sending my best wishes :)
@@tomgillbanks thxs, they booked me for a blood test, but my case is genetic😭
@@suuwiiiisorry man, I hope your doctor can help :(
do you still have any shedding currently or has it fully stoped
@@user-qf6dj1bl1x still have some now, I’m actually tracking it on insta & TikTok @tom.gillbanks + @tom_gillbanks. I went through a big shed around the 1 year mark.
I need your help dudee I'm 17 years old and I'm having a receding hairline. My right part is so f😭 I started using minoxidil and it's been around 25 days since I began my journey with minoxidil ( 5% ) it dries out my hair as it contains alcohol in it. Right now I'm in a shedding phase but I'm too worried about loosing tons of hair . Can I use a derma stamp?
yes use derma stamp !
Hey bro, I’d say you’re doing the right thing by just using minoxidil right now, then when you’re 18, talk to your doctor about a DHT blocker. Yes dermastamping is great once a week, maybe try tretinoin too!
@@tomgillbanks thanks a lot🥺❤️
@@azurediamond3085 thanks bud
Any opinions on topical finasteride ?
@@alexantoniou00 yeah, so I generally talk about them in the same breath, but topical is pretty close in effectiveness to oral finasteride, there’s just a lower chance of side effects on it, which can be awesome for guys who had an initial bad reaction to taking it in pill form. So yeah, I’d say it’s a great option. Manual, the guys I get it from actually offer a 2-in-1 topical minoxidil & finasteride solution, but I just choose oral fin for the convenience.
But
Another minoxidil ad lol
Let me guess, you are one of those "just save your head bro" guys, that refuse to even try to take care of their body.
These treatments work for the majority of people, backed up by many studies, and it's what doctors suggest for hair loss. Next time, unless you have something usefull to say, please don't bother commenting again.
@@anonimosd.2872 someone's mad
I take saw palmetto supplements wud they block dht aswel
Very mildly bro, sadly I’m afraid it just isn’t enough to counteract hormones.
