Hair Restoration Help

[Guest oogie292]

So I have been on hormones for a few months and I am well into my laser hair removal so I have started thinking about what I want my next step to be. I believe my next conquest will be to fix my hair line. Now, my hair line is not as bad as some but it certainly is not feminine. I can luckily put my bangs over so it is unnoticable but it keeps me from certain hair styles and with a gust of wind it becomes noticeable. Its a major insecurity of mine. I am however very grateful that I was able to nip hairloss in the butt at this age. Im nineteen. So, I come seeking advice as to what others have done and what seems to work the most. I have had some regrowth from the hormones so I know I need to wait some time before doing anything major but here is what I know so far-

There are hair implants from yourself which usually come from the back of the head.

There are hair implants that come from a donor person which tend to be easily rejected.

And then theres minoxidol. And even though I have heard it works, I have also heard discontinuing it may cause the hair to fall out and possibley more hair to fall out than before.

I appreciate any opinion I can get and if anyone knows of any good Transplant places in the Massachusetts/Rhode Island area I will be even mroe grateful. Thank you!

Oh, and here is a photo of my current hairline.

Unfortunately restoring the hairline isn't very successful. There's a better chance to restore hair on the crown. As far as I know when stopping all hair restoration products the hair you gained will be lost.

From what I've been told about Monoxidol, it can work but it will also grow hair on other parts of your body.

Your best bet is Finasteride. It's an anti-androgen hormone that also is a growth restoration product. Males use Propecia for hair restoration. This is what I use as part of my HRT regimen and it has done wonders in restoring and thickening my hair, although not on the hairline.
