Unless you were rubbing the stuff into your scalp I can’t imagine 10 Days having any significant impact.

Do you have a family history of male pattern baldness? So if you really have low T, don’t be vain about your hair style. Low T can and does cause issues far beyond libido. Depression, cardiac issues, vascular issues, skeletal and muscular problems. Hair is not nearly as critical as overall health and well being.


Hi Txagq8,

Appreciate your response. To answer your questions, yes I'm taking androgel. I dont have MPB history in my family. But I'm thinning in front (not from trt) which is natural as men get older.

Would you know if theres an alternative to trt to increase testosterone, like exercising with weights or whatever?

What do you think about taking clomid? My uro says it doesnt help much, just somewhat. What do you think?

I was experiencing hair loss from TRT.

I almost completely arrested it by taking Saw Palmetto as recommended by one of my health care providers.

It's not approved by the FDA but many studies show some improvements by taking it. Your mileage may vary.

As we age, our bodies produce less of everything. Because of this, our nutritional absorbtion rate usually declines.

Be sure that you take good nutritional supplements, consume enough protein, and have adequate iron in your body, which the body uses to build strong, healthy hair. Be careful with iron; men can overdose on it because they do not menstruate.

Hi niarceel,

Appreciate your reply and help. Ever tried pumpkin seed oil for your hair? I read it does help regrow hair.

Kinggg,

I haven't tried pumpkin oil specifically to treat hair loss. However, I already take it as a part of a food supplement for overall prostate health.

Thanks for suggesting it.

I self inject. Hitting myself in the thigh hurts but it’s convenient. A shot in the butt hurts less, less likely to put it in a vein by accident, but requires agility.



Use a 25G 5/8" needle and inject your delts....thank me later! :D

I am on trt and my hair has gotten dramatically thin. I never had thin hair prior and I do not think I was genetically prone to lose it like some say. My grandparents on both side of my family still have heads full of hair as well as men in my family. I used to be the guy that asked for the hair stylist to use thinning shears, now I ask them to not even trim the top. It’s crazy.
