Good post, I'm young and a little worried about that myself. Does anybody use rogaine or something like that? Do those shampoos really work? IP: Logged |

Conan, What do you mean that you haven't had problems? YOU have NO HAIR at 21!!! That is a problem. I still want to be able to comb something besides back hair. IP: Logged |

From the research I have done on hairloss is that using AS will make people who are going bald lose their hair much faster. Since you are forty and have a full head you have probably nothing to worry about(lucky) I am 20 and about to go on a cycle and am worried about hairloss. I do you Nioxin shampoo and maybe will go on Rogaine. Nioxin might be good to use while on Steroids because steroids have an effect that turns into DHT and that causes hairloss and Nioxin prevents DHT. SOmething like that at least. Peace IP: Logged |

I think what Conan meant is that he's 21 now (has hair) and the prospect of going bald scares him. Correct me if I'm wrong bro. For a good hair loss article, go to www.brinkzone.com and click on articles. There is a good one about hair loss. Matt I have all my hair. And I plan to keep it. IP: Logged |

I still have all my hair after much abuse, and I'm over 40. My woman owns a beauty salon and they all swear by the Nioxin product line. I use Rx Nizoral EOD also and Nolvadex helps too. IP: Logged |

Hair loss always made me wonder.....when steroid users who get into thirties and forties lose their hair is it because of steroid use or simply because they are in their 30's and 40's and would begin losing their hair anyway at this time IP: Logged |

I'm 37 and the only hair loss I've seen on myself was a few years ago when I tried prohormones, I know, go a head and flame away but I got caught up in the hype. Funny thing is none of the cycles I've taken have made me lose any hair, just the prohomones. IP: Logged |

A/S won't make you loose your hair, it'll only accelerate the process in people who are predisposed to that. If your genetics point that you won't be bald don't worry about A/S, but if you're already starting to loose some hair better take care. I only did A/S twice in my life and before the first time I was starting to get bald at 20! The A/S made me loose the hair much faster even in little dosages (1 A-bomb / day). It's just a matter of genetics, it's related with how the receptors in your head treat the estrogen and DHT. Some drugs like Finasterida have been widely indicated as a good solution to stop the baldness and even reverse it. IP: Logged |

This is a very interesting thread. Hair loss has always freaked me out since I like my hair and would not want to be bald. I'm 25 now and starting thinning around 21 or 22. At that time I started taking half a tab of proscar a day which seemed to slow things down a bit but it still slowly thinned. At 24 I did my first cycle and definitely sped up the hair loss process (and I was using nizoral everyday). So, since then I've been trying everything including minoxidil, azelaic acid, retinoic acid, spironolactone, folligen cream, proscar, and good shampoo (Nioxin or Tricomin which might even be better). The hair loss seemed to stop (but no hair has ever grown back) so I decided to try a 3 week "test" cycle to see how my hair would hold up. The dosages were not high and I definitely lost hair because of that short cycle. So, that was my last cycle for now. What sucks is the ONLY side effect I get from AS is hairloss. That's it! And it pisses me off! I'm just going to have to wait until better hair loss drugs come out before I can get back on AS. Ain't that a bitch? So, moral of the story is you can't beat your genetics. Some people are predisposed to acne and get gyno easily, others just suffer hair loss like me. If your hair is falling out now or thinning in any way whatsoever, whatever you do AS will only speed up the process. I think if you 30+ years old and still have a thick full head of hair, you'll probably be fine though. Hopefully this post will help other people out who are trying to save their hair. IP: Logged |

He Calkid, you can use PGF2a, no need to worry about your hair. If you use stuff like Nizoral or anything else, you also must use Zinc. Or you could use Deca, not so bad for your hair. Stay away from the DHT roids like Primobolan, Winstrol, Masteron and Parabolan. (Since you are sensitive to hair loss). Jeff IP: Logged |

Delts, If you're 40 and have not suffered from hair loss yet, you probably don't have to worry. From what I've read on the topic, steroids will accelerate hair loss in people who are genetically predisposed to loosing their hair. If you still have a full set of hair at 40, you're probably in the clear. [This message has been edited by DoorMan (edited May 17, 2000).] IP: Logged |

Thanks for all the replies bros!!! Yoda, I've taken a shitload of the prohormone crap including the norabol and the andro junk. I didn't receive any hairloss from that and also no signs of gyno whatsoever, so maybe I am "just lucky", but it makes we wonder what side effects I actually will get from 'roid use'. But I'm ready to get started......this board kicks! delts ------------------ IP: Logged |
