beware of dutasteride its the strongest to the hair but makes your fertility go damn down. I talked to one of the hair transplanteurs in Austria about this medicine. He said it works really fine but the half-life of this medicine acculumulates the active substance fast so your whole fertility will be lost even for month and maybe years after you stopped using dutasteride.

Just from personal experience, low e2 causes hairloss for me .
Trt causes hair growth for me on my head, because my natty e2 is very low and normal on trt

My hairline has slowly but surely been creeping back(have a beauty mark for reference lol). However I have only done two test cycle and no one in my family has baldness other than an uncle... I've used Nizoral fairly religiously too.
If my hairline has crept back minimally with a little thinning on the crown, what should I expect from future cycles considering I am two cycles in and 24. I can't really afford to go bald(lots of income based on appearance) and I could afford a transplant if I ever needed it but would definitely prefer not to need to.
And a question no one has been able to answer of mine: If you are receding does that mean you will KEEP receding/thinning guaranteed? Or can you hit a point where the loss will stop? My hairline has always been high, so my loss could be mostly chocked up to maturing sped up by test, but if it keeps going obviously thats a problem.

The people on the hairloss forums claim that the hairloss could stop permanently or stop and start up again over time .
If it stops for good it's considered a mature hairline .
Drop in igf levels could also lead to hairloss, which igf levels slowly drop after 17.

does anyone know when you can expect to see hair loss while running AAS?

Hair loss is a common problem affecting both men and women. The most frequent etiology is androgenetic alopecia, but other causes of hair loss such as trauma, various dermatologic diseases, and systemic diseases can cause alopecia.
The loss of hair can have profound effects on one’s self esteem and emotional well-being, as one’s appearance plays a role in the work place and interpersonal relationships. It is therefore not surprising that means to remedy hair loss are widely sought.
Hair transplant surgery has become increasingly popular, and the results that we are able to create today are quite remarkable, providing a natural appearance when the procedure is performed well. In spite of this, hair transplant surgery is not perfect.
It is not perfect because the hair transplant surgeon is still faced with challenges that prevent the achievement of optimal results. Some of these challenges include a limit to donor hair availability, hair survival, and ways to conceal any evidence of a surgical procedure having taken place.
This article examines some of the most important challenges facing hair restoration surgery today and possible solutions to these challenges.

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a highly concentrated autologous solution of plasma prepared from a patient's own blood. PRP contains platelets that are purported to release numerous growth factors that may be valuable in numerous dermatologic applications.
Here, we review systematically the clinical cosmetic applications of PRP including: androgenetic alopecia, scar revision, acne scars, skin rejuvenation, dermal augmentation, and striae distensae to understand the potential and best practices for PRP use.
A systematic search was conducted on three databases: Pubmed, Embase, and Web of Science. Publications were included if they were in English, investigated the clinical applications of PRP in aesthetic dermatology and reported clinical results either as case reports or clinical studies.
There were a total of 22 manuscripts that fulfilled these criteria. Four evaluated hair-related applications, eight evaluated the treatment of scars and postprocedure recovery, eight evaluated skin rejuvenation and dermal augmentation, and two evaluated treatment of striae distensae.
PRP is a relatively new treatment modality with studies suggesting its utility in aesthetic dermatology. The combination of PRP with other therapies is particularly interesting. Future studies should include controls, including incorporation of split-face comparisons, to reduce intersubject variability.

good to know this, lol
Three of my patients AND myself recently had a HT using PRP and although the early results (how long the transplanted hairs remain visible before entering the dormant/regrowth stage) seemed encouraging, all the transplanted hair did eventually enter a dominant stage.
It makes me query whether this from of "therapy" is only delaying the onset of dormancy or will it actually increase the total number of grafts that will see a rebirth. The latter can be difficult to say bc reemergence of new grafted hair occurs over THREE to TWELVE MONTH course!
I mention this bc some HT surgeons are using their "early transplant data" to justify the use of PRP in all comers. The latter is fine as long as the patient is not being charged for what at this point should be considered experimental therapy IMO!

IT'S HIGHLY VARIABLE yet there should be no doubt the effect is CUMULATIVE such that almost EVERY ONE who uses AAS will lose some hair, although some won't notice the difference.
However those who use high doses for prolonged intervals are more susceptible.
Micro Tattooing the size of an emerging hair follicle "tatted" about the scalp in a manner that makes others BELIEVE you shave your head out of preference rather than necessity?
Right, NOT!

Thanks for good reading!
Sinclair R, Torkamani N, Jones L. Androgenetic alopecia: new insights into the pathogenesis and mechanism of hair loss. F1000Res.4(F1000 Faculty Rev):585. http://f1000research.com/articles/4-585/v1
The hair follicle is a complete mini-organ that lends itself as a model for investigation of a variety of complex biological phenomena, including stem cell biology, organ regeneration and cloning.
The arrector pili muscle inserts into the hair follicle at the level of the bulge- the epithelial stem cell niche. The arrector pili muscle has been previously thought to be merely a bystander and not to have an active role in hair disease.
Computer generated 3D reconstructions of the arrector pili muscle have helped explain why women with androgenetic alopecia (AGA) experience diffuse hair loss rather than the patterned baldness seen in men. Loss of attachment between the bulge stem cell population and the arrector pili muscle also explains why miniaturization is irreversible in AGA but not alopecia areata. A new model for the progression of AGA is presented.

Kerastem Hair Growth Data Presented At 2015 International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery (ISHRS) Annual Scientific Meeting
http://finance.yahoo.com/news/kerastem-hair-growth-data-presented-161000072.html
The authors (Drs. Perez-Meza, Ziering, Sforza, Ball, Krishna and Daniels) performed a single scalp injection of Kerastem's regenerative cell enriched adipose tissue in 9 healthy hair loss patients, and a total of 6 patients were followed for a period of six months using global photography and macrophotography with the Handyscope and Trichoscale Pro software used to quantify hair growth. The authors reported a 100% patient response rate to the Kerastem Therapy at 6-months and in patients with early stage hair loss, the percentage increase in hair count/density was a mean difference of 17% (p = 0.02). In males with early grade loss, an average 29% increase (p=0.057) in hair count/hair density with a mean difference of 40 hairs per square centimeter was observed.
