Excerpt from DoubleCheckMD - Latisse (bimatoprost topical ophthalmic)...
"Latisse may cause color change in the sclera (tough, outer covering of the eye).
Concurrent administration of bimatoprost topical ophthalmic solution (LATISSE) and IOP-lowering prostaglandin analogs in ocular hypertensive patients may decrease the IOP-lowering effect. Patients using these products concomitantly should be closely monitored for changes to their intraocular pressure.
There is two different brands that say they have the same effect as Latisse but they cost much less than Latisse. They are Lumigan, and Bimatoprost. My question is do they actually have the same effect like Latisse? what is the diffrence??

usually means male-pattern baldness, or permanent-pattern baldness. Male-pattern baldness is the most common cause of hair loss in men. Men who have this type of hair loss usually have inherited the trait. Men who start losing their hair at an early age tend to develop more extensive baldness. In male-pattern baldness, hair loss typically results in a receding hair line and baldness on the top of the head.
Some medicines can cause hair loss.
how does one tell the diffeence between male pattern baldness and that of thyroiditis resulting in hyperthyroidism?
I Hello! I am 19 years old guy and I aquire baldness and so much of hair loss from past 2 years and I suspect that my hereditary is the main cause for the hair loss because my grandfather and my dad has the same baldness.
Hello,
From the pattern of baldness like it being hereditary, it sounds like male pattern baldness. Androgenic alopecia is a common form of hair loss and typically occurs in M shaped pattern.
Men who have this type of hair loss usually have inherited the trait. Other causes may be use of some drugs, infections and underlying disease, such as lupus or diabetes. A biopsy (taking a small sample of cells to examine under a microscope) of your scalp may be needed to establish the correct diagnosis.
Hello,
It can be due to alopecia aertea but in males androgenic alopecia or male pattern baldness is an important cause to be ruled out for baldness in the middle of the head. It is mainly genetic but sometimes hormonal imbalance like overproduction of dihydrotestosterone and thyroid hormones irregularities also play an important role.
It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided.
My hair seems to be diffusely thinning all over, but the hair on the top is all equally thin, no area on top appears thinner than the others. Can total baldness progress this way or does it always follow the pattern of recession that begins at the temples and crown and eventually meet in the center?
Thanks!
t had a good answer yet. Does masterbation lead to pattern baldness. I read on a couple of websites that it does and some say it don't. I also read in my biology book that sex causes it. I use to masterbate everyday from 7th-9th(which im in now). I have slowed down tho to about once a way to sometimes once a month. I have noticed my hair thinning and it looks like my hairline is receding. Will just stopping masterbation make things go back to normal.
There can be many reasons for hair loss or baldness like excessive compulsive pulling of hair, trauma, chemotherapy, severe stress, iron deficiency, fungal infections, and hyperthyroidism. Premature male baldness is linked to genetics. It appears to be a X linked trait.
Do you have baldness in your family?
If yes then it can be cause in your case otherwise it seems to be secondary to trauma during shaving.
Take care!
I went to see a dermatologist today because I am afraid of losing my hair. Some background information about me. I am 28 years old. I have next to none history of baldness in my family history. My great-grandfather on my mother's side was bald. However, all my male and female relatives have never lost their hair. My hairline is what you could call a "mature" hairline. Meaning it is around a norwood 1.5 ish.
Hello,
From these symptoms it is less likely to be telogen effluvium and can be male pattern baldness. Male pattern baldness is usually an inherited trait and men start lossing hair at an early age leading to extensive baldnesss. Since the nutritional deficiency is also a common cause of hairloss,patient is required to take food rich in protien,vitamins(mainly vit A and vit C) and other micronutrient like zinc,iron and copper.
Was your hair loss 20 years ago and the reason for transplant due to hair loss associated with thyroid dysfunction or male pattern baldness? If the latter, and if your thyroid medication is adequate, what you are currently experiencing may be due to male pattern baldness. Have you asked your doctor about this?
