Weekly summary - 34th week

It is almost 8 months I have been taking 0.5mg Propecia.
The shedding of my hair has slightly improved this week. The hair loss seem back to under controlled.
Last week I have posted my photos after 33rd week on Propecia. I also receive some comments that my hair not really grows. I have to agree with that. I don't think my hair make a good progress either under this stage. Miniature hair in my frontal not that strong and quite some hair falls while I wash my hair.
Someone has asked how many hair I loss per day and how I calculate it. I give you some idea. I loss around 50 to 60 while washing my hair. I loss about 10 to 15 while I comb my hair. During normal days, I usually find myself drops 5 to 10 on my working table. If there is about 20% more hair that I unnoticed when it drops, then it come out around 100 to 120 strands per day.
Anyway, my libido seems getting lower and lower. Sigh!

Hi Jason, may I know where you go for hair scan and diagnosis? I don't want to go to hair centers like Yun Nam, Svenson, etc. I want neutral doctors who can do professional diagnosis and tell me the reason for thinning hair, whether it is dandruff, oily scalp, genes, or whatever. Thanks a lot, man.

Do your diagnosis in any of the clinics will do.

Any clinics? Don't need dermatologists or whatever? Normal GP have the equipment to scan the scalp?

Any email or something where I can contact you directly?

Thanks bro.
