Has anyone experienced hairloss from testosterone creams or injections?

bump

I wouldn't have been able to tell unless it fell out of my pubes.

Oh hell yeah. Receding hairline to the nth power.

But hey. I was 59 when I started on it. 63 now.

Wife loves shaved head and beard or goatee.

I can also do the Army Ranger buzzcut look, albeit the top is pretty thin.

Well worth the trade off to feel like a 21 year old badass trapped in a 63 year old body. Despite the baldness, I look younger, feel younger, act younger.

My annual physical checkups and blood work are those of a much younger guy. Cholesterol below 100. I do have to donate blood about every 8 weeks to keep my red cells in check. But that’s okay. I go to the Ft Hood blood center. Some soldier might get a tankful of A Pos Ethyl. (If you’re old enough to remember when gasoline was either Regular or Ethyl)

Plus whatever head hair I lost I made up for in my crotch, on my chest, arms, and legs. I’m not exactly a Yeti type but I no longer look like my body hair was an afterthought....that the creator just threw a few strands here and there (I’d never had much chest or body hair,..my home DNA test had a lot more Native American genes in it than, say, Elizabeth Warren’s). But I always wanted some and TestC delivered. What I want to know is why it came in red.....

I echo Txagq8's sentiment

Hair loss? Embrace it!

Granted, I would rather have a full head of hair than my bald pate. But it is what it is. I took surgical solution to fix one deficiency. I would not trade my (now) working penis for the most luxurious head of hair in the world.

Hey Txagq8.. appreciate the response. But are you saying you lost your hair from trt?

Did trt help get your low libido back?

The TRT accelerated the loss of my head hair. No question. It was like stepping on the gas pedal in my wife’s Mustang convertible. DHT is one of the chemicals testosterone evolves into, once in your bloodstream, and it’s the leading culprit in male pattern baldness.

The TRT gave me a hell of a lot more hair on my arms, legs, chest, crotch, and beard.

I’m not chrome done bald. But I do shave the head s couple of times a year. Paired with a goatee it looks good. I’ve got a wife and plan to keep her. But if I had to be in the dating pool, a shaved head, goatee, and ripped body scream VIRILE MALE to women. Yes I’ve been hit on at the gym. By both women and men, which was disconcerting to say the least.

Hey Txagq8,

Appreciate the reply. I took t cream for about 10 days only and stoped after that cuz of the hairloss side effect I read about online. Do you think it had caused hair loss in that short period of time? How long were you on it before you first noticed your own hairloss?

I’m guessing by cream you’re talking androgel or similar.

I self inject. Hitting myself in the thigh hurts but it’s convenient. A shot in the butt hurts less, less likely to put it in a vein by accident, but requires agility.

I noticed an acceleration of hair loss on my head about 6 months.

I noticed a significantly hairier body especially armpits at about a year.

Unless you were rubbing the stuff into your scalp I can’t imagine 10 Days having any significant impact.

Do you have a family history of male pattern baldness? Genetics is destiny. My maternal uncle had low T and left it untreated....now at 80 osteoporosis is kicking his ass. So if you really have low T, don’t be vain about your hair style. Low T can and does cause issues far beyond libido. Depression, cardiac issues, vascular issues, skeletal and muscular problems. Hair is not nearly as critical as overall health and well being.

Plus you can always get a wig. If you’re cheap, get one from a thrift store. That way you won’t have toupee.
