I'm no expert but wouldn't a person's muscle androgen receptor density/sensitivity be hugely important here? Like we know that fat people have way more leptin than lean people, but it doesn't matter...

I'm black

Balding since age 12

Bad social anxiety

I started at 13 and I'm taller than anyone in my immediate family. Go for it.

It's genetic, vitamins and shampoo won't stop the onset. Just look at your hairline every month or so, and when you notice any balding, jump on the big 3 (finasteride, minoxidil, ketoconazole) as...

Nope

I've made no friends at uni. Freshman year's almost over and I've never eaten a meal with anyone, gone out, hung out, partied...I haven't had so much as a conversation with anyone here.

This thread is just a thinly-veiled but well-deserved bragging thread for OP

Hair loss is polygenic, both your mother and father's genes will affect your hair. As for siblings, it's just luck of the draw.

I started balding at age 12. I think I'm some sort of world record.

I can't seem to find my source, but I definitely remember reading that EC gives a 7-8% boost in metabolism if you take 3 doses a day. So depending on your metabolism that could be 200-300 calories a...

I've dropped 11 pounds in 4.5 days on ~2400 calories. IF + EC is amazing

Minoxidil and ketoconazole (the active ingredient in Nizoral) are both drugs used for completely different things, too.

Day 4 of IF for me.

Dropped 8 pounds so far but I know it's just water.

IF + EC is working well so far

The first part of the starvation response actually involves an INCREASE in metabolism as the result of fluctuating hormones. The purpose of this is to provide the person with energy to acquire...

I think Americans should have to pass a test about civics/American history before they can vote for someone to public office. I'm guessing this opinion would be fairly popular on the Misc. but...

I don't mind dying. But I'll never be able to be a carefree teenager again (been balding since I was 12, strong genetics)

It sucks to know we're the last generation that doesn't have any good, affordable hair loss treatments. In 20 years guys will just have to pay $2000 to get a perfect non-balding scalp

Serious question: why are people saying things like "it's hard to maintain 8%" and "your body doesn't want to be that lean". Isn't it just calories in = calories out? Why should maintaining an 8%...

Water. Everyone in the world is addicted to it and if you try and quit, the withdrawal symptoms kill you within a few days.
