This article: "The Hair-Loss Drug Rewriting the Rules of Masculinity" is merely a tit-for-tat on the pros and cons of taking finasteride, aka Propecia, which has been available for men to take for hair loss since 1997. And of course this article about "Masculinity" was written by a WOMAN.

There's a sucker born every minute. P.T.Barnum.

I hope this is a sign that I won't need to read another post about "femininity" by the guys on this forum.

Could be a start!

It's like things that humans learned years ago have been forgotten because of the new media format.

20 years ago: "Those drugs will turn your dick into permanent spaghetti."

Today:

*20-something girl in a 10-second short says, "If its 2026 and you're still BALDING, what are you even doing?"

"I think I'll try the drugs now."

I swear to God people are psychologically regressing.

The saddest part? Rosemary oil is as effective as minoxidil. You can just use rosemary oil and not have the crazy side effects and they KNOW THAT.

Apples and oranges. I'm an older male starting to lose hair. Finasteride is to hold onto the hair you have and not really grow more. It blocks the conversion of test to dht and can be applied locally. Minoxidil grows new hair or encourages tiny hairs to become fuller. I'm not sure about rosemary oil.

You got low libido, take test injections, hcg and enclomiphene. You got a limp dick, take viagra or cialis until that doesn't work and then hop on trimix. Be a fucking man and inject your dick directly with it. If you want to grow your dick bigger, mix that trimix with some bpc-157, igf1(or igf1-lr3) and some test and inject your dick with that. All that locked in and localized on those receptors (since you have little blood escaping the corpus cavernosa during that time) for up to 10 fucking hours will literally grow your dick---shhh...no one knows this yet. Yeah, that 4 hour priapism shit is a lie--hell half the time when you get to the emergency room they make you wait longer than that. Just shift the blood around and try to get new blood in now and then and you're fine.

There's solutions to every problem and symptom if you just think about the shit.

Its expensive but Ive heard people using bimatoprost for hair regrowth.

[ - ] rzr97 2 points 2 daysApr 8, 2026 17:01:07 ago (+2/-0)

Ahh...damn...i shouldn't have been so caustic. I appreciate the tip. I'll look into it. Ignore the snark.

[ - ] PostWallHelena 1 point 1 dayApr 9, 2026 13:22:34 ago (+1/-0)

Youre an older male losing your hair. You have every right to be caustic! 😉

[ - ] labreatarpit 1 point 1 dayApr 9, 2026 12:06:30 ago (+1/-0)

First I've heard of this one, and gave it a look-up. Very interesting. It's still not "FDA approved" as a treatment for hair loss, but neither is Dutasteride in the US, while in Asia it has replaced Finasteride as the go-to for hair loss treatment. Sounds promising!

You know what does really well to prevent all that chemical abuse? Eating healthy, staying fit, working out, being in the sun, and sleeping well.

[ - ] rzr97 0 points 2 daysApr 8, 2026 16:58:45 ago (+1/-1)

...chemical abuse...ahahahahaha! Bitch you'll be on hrt and call it normal and complain that men have more treatment options when you reach my age. Give me a break. The only thing you could call chemical abuse would be the bpc and igf and even those are now becoming mainstream. Hell my 80 something mother uses bpc now for arthritis and otehr things.

By the way, I eat healthy (overall), I stay fit, work out and get sun.

You don't know what you're talking about. NONE of that stops hair loss and it certainly doesn't stop erectile dysfunction as you age. Let me know how things go when you hit perimenopause and then menopause and your shit dries up like the desert and you have zero energy.

[ - ] PostWallHelena 0 points 1 dayApr 9, 2026 13:30:08 ago (+0/-0)

Is potatowhisperer going through menopause?😆

[ - ] rzr97 -1 points 2 daysApr 8, 2026 17:00:13 ago (+0/-1)

By the way, I recommend 1 to 10mg of test a week for you too once you start on the estradiol patch and progesterone. Oh, viagra and cialis work for women too some by the way. Your clit is nothing but erectile tissue.

[ - ] ButtToucha9000 0 points 2 daysApr 9, 2026 07:44:58 ago (+0/-0)

Yeah. The solutions are called rosemary oil(minoxidil), saw palmetto berry(finesteride), exercise(linido).

Stop looking for some magic pill.

I have doubts.

Thats because you are a sad bald beta male with saggy wrinkled balls.

rosemary oil smells awful, smells like patchouli to me
I think its the rosemary oil

I didnt know about it doing that though, still stinks.

Facebook has been doing it nearly 20yrs.

I mean, high testosterone causes hair loss.

How to say you don't understand steroid theory without saying you don't understand steroid theory.

Imagine being such a cuck you worry about hair loss. lol And if you're a christcuck, that'd be vanity for ya (venial sin ~ fucking catholic childhood).

Mine was noticably thin by 23~24, bought a $50 Wahl and have buzzed my head every week for decades. Best $50 I've spent, though I think a lot about a cordless option now, just hard to justify replacing something that works perfectly.

[ - ] Lesion -1 points 2 daysApr 8, 2026 11:39:46 ago (+0/-1)

I got a cordless waterproof deal so I can shave in the shower.

High speed, low drag.

Yeah but I'm not bald anymore.

[ - ] PostWallHelena 0 points 2 daysApr 8, 2026 13:40:15 ago (+0/-0)

IVe heard that bimatoprost has good potential for hair loss treatment. Any side effects with that shit?

[ - ] PostWallHelena 0 points 2 daysApr 8, 2026 13:34:55 ago (+0/-0)

This class of drugs have been used to treat BPH for a long time. Someone who has gone through male puberty will not turn into a tranny. Like half of old men are on this shit or something like it.

They want to drug the youth early to turn them into eunechs.

[ - ] PostWallHelena 0 points 2 daysApr 8, 2026 15:21:39 ago (+0/-0)

But its prescribed for prostate enlargement and baldness. How many youths are going to be affected?

[ - ] the_old_ones [op] 0 points 2 daysApr 8, 2026 16:15:21 ago (+0/-0)

Likely many. The medications and drugs people take contaminate the water supply via their sewege.

Also, they're trying to push it really early to guys as soon as possible currently, for (((some reason)))
