    want to do a cycle but FREAKED OUT over DHT conversion/hair loss

    I have nice healthy hair and genetically, my family hasnt had problems with hair loss except for my uncle. I want to do a cycle of test-e but the only side effect i really worry about is hair loss. how common is this and have any of you experienced it?

    deca and tren are compounds you need to worry about when it comes to hairloss.

    I didn't lose any hair on test-e, but when I went on tren my hair follices got weaker and fell out, I didnt grow bald just my hair fell out easier.

    Now I am back to normal since I finished my cycle.

    deca is pretty hair friendly given its low androgenic rating, my brother is prone to mpb and didn't see any losses on 400 per week.

    How do you guys know if your losing hair on cycle . . . ? Myself i notice it in the shower after shampooing, I counted approx 40 hairs yesterday, but have also read the 50-100 hairs is normal shedding. To the op, if i was u bro i'd monitor your current rate of shedding and compare once you start your cycle, if you decide to. Get some nizoral/spiro to keep your scalp healthy, you could also look into finasteride, but do some reading first as i have seen some info contrary to some opinions of it being without side effects. Good luck.

    True, I haven't tested deca yet (going to in my upcoming cycle), I assumed both 19-nors caused hair loss.

    Anyway, I dont know how I noticed its just normally if I went into the shower I would see a hairs falling out during shampoo and I knew that NEVER happend before so I assumed it was the tren. Now I know it def. was the tren because my hair has gone back to normal in the shower I have 3-4 strands fall out which is normal compared to the 20-25+ I was having falling out on or whenever I spiked my hair with gel while on tren

    If the OP is really worried just get Propecia.

    It was Tren ace, and I was running around 600mg/week, but I think it was underdosed so it probably wasn't actually 650mg/week.

    I noticed it around week 4 and I was on tren ace for 8 weeks, it took about till week 4 or so to start noticing it enough than it got progressivly worse. And it took about 2 weeks once I got off for it to fully go away.

    My hair is really thick so you can't even tell I had any hair loss. I even would go and get my hair buzzed down and it would grow back faster than ever.

    Thanks for the info. Im past week 5 and was doing 75mg ED but increased it to 100mg ED. I have not noticed any hair loss but I have been on propecia for over 5-6 years and worth every penny.

    Sorry not trying to steal this thread. But this is useful info for all

    Losing your hair cause of steroids is like saying you are 100% going to get li=ung cancer if you smoke 1 cigarette. it could happen but more than likely not

    Most of know this but what threads like this does is inform all individuals of what can happen so if it does happen we might know how to combat it and we dont have to start threads over and over again. There are many factors why one would lose their hair on gear but by discussing these issue with individuals that have experience with certain types of gear makes all of us more prepared.

    Horrible horrible example.

    Losing your hair on steroids all comes down to genes. If you are prone to MPB in the slighest bit you will most likely lose hair on steroids that exerte MPB, if you aren't than nothing will happen. Simple as that.

    if your not losing your hair on tren rana perhaps your not prone, tren is the worst one! And propecia will do nothing directly to preventing hairloss from a 19-nor . . .

    Trust me, I lost a shit ton of hair years ago, I had the Bruce Willis hairline. But after a year of propecia most of my hair grew back

    You can understand why i'm intrigued though, tren is the hair devil and you can't take anything substantial that will stop it in its tracks, but you say your not shedding at all!? I know obviously everything is individual . . . i'm on test plus fina/niz/minoxidil and still losing 40 odd hairs in the shower ed??
