Doing a cycle before having hair transplant??

[Test Monsterone]

The reason they use hair follicles from the back of the head when doing a transplant is that they are not androgen sensitive and prone to balding the way the hair on top of the head is. Otherwise the hair would fall out again after the transplant. But - the hair you still have is going to continue falling out if you take androgens. A cycle is not really a problem imo, it’s having elevated test over a long period of time that is the most problematic.

good info - in my experience, transplanted hair has a limited shelf life (~20yrs), requires a fair amount of discipline & finasteride to maintain

Fin def freaks me out a bit. Just the potential sexual side effects. But well test is probably far worse for you.

No WAYYY! A guy on a fitness forum who doesn't just say "you need to learn about proper nutrition and rest bro."

Thanks for the intel. Gotcha. I just don't want to get a hair transplant, then cycle, then have a huge shedding around the new hair. I guess it seems logical to juice before it, a cycle, maybe two, shed some follicles, then have a hair transplant that covers prior and new hair loss, then lose my gains in the weeks of recovery, then juice again.

Credible doctors who specialize in hair transplant surgery are artists, it's their job to strategically place and anticipate your pattern/path. Might be valuable to schedule a few consults and let the information digest for awhile.

Both finasteride and long term hormone therapy are gnarly big commitments, no doubt. GL!

You said you don't want to look like Adam Levine anymore. Meaning that you're scrawny. You also in the same post said you wanted to get lipo on your lower abdomen. Meaning that you're skinny fat. Never mind the balding problem, by your own admission, you don't train right and you don't eat right. Fact is, you don't need steroids to put more muscle on than him. If you think you need to, then you don't know what you're doing.

And really, nobody gives a flying fvuk what some troll like you does or doesn't do. It's really somebody else, who legitimately needs help and stumbles on this thread that needs truthful advice. If they're in a spot like you trollfully described the last thing they need to do is run gear.
