hair thinning, changing composition, not prone, been off since august

[athlete0185]

well ive done two cycles total and have been off since august, which is a long time. things have been back to normal for a while, but what ive been noticing recently within the past few months is frontal hair thinning around the sides. no one in my family is bald, and didnt lose much hair at all throughout my cycles. also, i have curly hair naturally, but now it seems to be getting curlier and more course, and is becoming much harder to work with (changing composition). i love my thick dark hair and cant deal with the thinning in front anymore. whats going on here and is there anything i can do to at least get the hair back? what else could be causing this and should i get it checked out? i dont expect composition to change. any help is appreciated.

I'm half-way through my second cycle and experiencing something similar. I've had thick hair all my life, and zero MPB in my family. Now, I'm thinning a little bit. It's only noticable by me and a few people around me, but it's the rate that's spooking me.

Here's what I'm currently trying:
Propecia (Finasteride 1mg/day)
Saw Palmetto (dosage varies)

Here's what I have but haven't tried yet:
Extra strength Rogaine

Here's what's on order:
Nizoral (2%) shampoo

Here are the other things I'm considering (desperation, if necessary):
Spironolactone Solutions

I'm hoping to solve this via Propecia, Saw Palmetto and Nizoral shampoo. Going to a full-blown topical creme (i.e. Rogaine / Spiro) just sounds like a lot of nasty work.

In situations like ours, where we don't really have any MPB, does some of this hair grow back regardless of these treatments?

Whats up bros, ran a pretty heavy dose cycle last summer, started in July and did not finish until Oct, used Test E/EQ.....always have had a very thick head of hair, i compliment type rug up there, and same with me, no family history of MPB....well shortly after my cycle I noticed my hair was much thinner up front, totally freaked me out. Im still pretty upset about it.....anyway, i havent noticed much regrowth but my hair is somewhat long right now.....considering this is Feb and I quit in October, I may just have to live with the fact that I F'd up. Best of luck to you guys.....been using the Nizoral 2% but havent noticed much success......
Never did notice any hair falling out, just one day noticed how much thinner my hair had become in the front.....I've played around off and on gear for 6 years and never had a problem.....maybe the high doses did it this time, but I think I may be done for a while! Best of luck!

That's exactly what I'm seeing now.

My hair was thinning before i ever did any gear so i could care less, its only hair! Besides Bald is Beautiful

when you start seeing hair fall out at a young age it can be traumatic. eventually you will realize the only person who cares about it is YOU. (or maybe some shallow little girls who will hit the wall faster than a speeding bullet).

Forgot to throw in I used DBol during that cycle as well.....but anyway......
funny thing, of all the cycles ive used, never had any problems at all with hair loss...then this past cycle, wham....what happened.......being that there is really No one at all in my fam with MPB and i never lost hair before, Im assuming that it had to be because I used such high doses of test this last go around....but still, the thing that confuses me, I never actually noticed hair fall out.....it was kinda like, I just noticed one day out of no where how much thinner it had become.....Im holding out hope still that maybe it will thicken again, but I quit my cycle at the end of October so I dont know how much longer I can hold my breath!!
