View allI'm taking Perfectil tablets because I want to lighten my skin. It's been a week now, but I'm not sure when to expect to see any changes. Could it take a month or maybe two? I'm just wondering how long I should wait to notice a difference.
Gynaecologist opinion is advised.

I'm a 23-year-old guy and I've been noticing I've been losing hair more than usual lately. My dad's side doesn't have great hair either, but he's not bald yet. I've given minoxidil a shot but it didn't really help. My hair density is super low right now, but my hairline is still intact. Is a hair transplant my only option? Or am I too young to go down that road?
Hair transplant may not be the immediate or only solution for you. Consider medical treatments like minoxidil, finasteride, or PRP first, as they can slow or even reverse hair loss. You are not too young for a transplant, but its usually best to wait until your hair loss pattern is more stable.
