It's official, I'm alpha. Smug



I also have elevated Anti-Thyroglobulin though, not sure what that means Sad

Everything else is normal (and my liver survived 2 months of drinking almost everyday without any apparent damage Laughing).

You could borrow some of Invasor's, he could ship it to you in a bottle.

See problem solved for both of you Smile

Strange how it varies; iv got results with very high testosterone, and (just) below average a period later when I was depressed.

When the doc saw the high testosterone levels he asked if I used "something" for my weight lifting and if I was experiencing hair loss... I mean, im 25 FFS! Mind Is Full Of Fuck

I'd say good for you, but too much hormones is never a good deal Neutral

Come to think of it, too much of anything isn't a good deal...

Why did you check it up anyways? Out of curiosity or?

Wasn't that just a myth?
The relation between high testosterone and hair loss?

Baldness is caused by dihydrotestosterone, which has the same purpose as testosterone, only 5x stronger. So we're fine Very Happy

never was tested for testosterone levels myself, I get bloodwork done once a year just to make sure I'm healthy though.

How does one test for testosterone anyway?

They show you a few action packed films, if you start salivating and pound your chest your levels are high. The amount of saliva and pounding then showes how much testosterone you have... PC Master Race

I ain't risking with finasteride. I'd rather be bald than to face some of the (not so common, but still existing) side effects.

@Invasor: I roll with Minoxidil 5% + Bioscalin, they don't have dangerous side effects and seem to be working just fine for me (my hairline is still the same as ~2 years ago). They're quite expensive to be honest, but it's worth it. Razz

I know, but I had (other) problems with different medicine in the past, so I'm just not willing to take such risks. I love my hair, but I love being healthy even more... For me it's not worth the risk. I do know that most people have no side effects though.

@Ixigia
Never heard of Bioscalin, but I'll try minoxidil, although it seems a bit hard applying it everyday... The strange thing is my hairline never changed, but I have 50% less hair all over my head compared to a few years ago, I think I'm losing it even on the sides...

I'd say that's quite normal, you need to reinforce your hair before it's too late. (Also being stressed or anxious makes the whole process even faster). Applying Minoxidil on daily basis unfortunately is very annoying indeed and requires some patience..not hard, just kinda tedious, and works better if you have short hair.

Bioscalin isn't anything serious, they're simply capsules full of vitamins good for our manly mane and such. No harmful side effects whatsoever, though they cost a fortune..
