Hey there, what are you guys thoughts on my profile? I just hired a professional photographer and we shot a bunch of photos (I never take photos myself). I feel like it might be coming off as a little bit too try hard though if they are all professionally shot? Bio might be lacking a bit of purpose as well..

Yeah man. I see what you mean. Maybe some of the Rogaine got into an open wound or something? I heard about systemic stuff. but, also it could have been avoided completely. And don't apply it on open skin. There are other things you can do as well. First off, you can try dermarolling. It's been pretty extensively studied and has been proven to work for hairloss. Secondly, I would recommend looking into exosomes injections. I did my first one a few weeks ago. And people have told me results are already showing. I'll be able to comment on that a lot more in the next few months. In terms of Is it the photos or the looks, it's a bit of both. You don't look your absolute best in the photos you posted here. That is a combination of lighting, angles and your appearance. Also, a few of these photos look quite posed. I did like that one you initially posted. So, you're on the right track with that one

Nope I never applied Rogaine to an open wound, I have tried lowering dosage frequency / going from 5% to 2% for a while as well.. none of that worked.. some of the rogaine you will apply will inevitably go systemic since your skin is the largest organ.. the degree in which that happens depends again on your genetics.. also I think it's important how high your blood pressure initially is, if it's on the higher side you might not get this side effect, if it's on the healthier side the rogaine that went systemic might cause it too go too low.. and your heart will compensate by palpitating, causing chest pains.. Also the oral blood pressure medication which it initially was lomatil, is no longer being prescribed.. I think that also had to do with safety..
The only thing I didn't want to try was RU58841 (it being a research chemical), but that probably has the same potency as finasteride.. For me there's just not that much of a point in trying to spend too much mental energy / time on a sinking ship which I can never save without "big guns" like finasteride or RU58841 working.. stuff like dermarolling or even minoxidil will probably slow down the process a bit but if it is in your genetics to progress to a norwood 7 then it will never prevent it from your testosterone wreaking havoc on your hair follicles. And apart from that in all the scientific literature none of these FDA approved hairloss meds have been tested for safety for 10-20+ years (which is the timeframe you'll pbb be looking at if you're a hairloss sufferer).
anyway there's my long tangent on hairloss prevention, I've read way too much into it my initial phase.. but sort of just came to accept it..
