Finasteride!

I still can't tell if I'm balding or if my hair is just thinning or what. I told my barber I was tired of seeing all the little short hairs all over everything in my bathroom. I mean, they're everywhere. He said, "You don't have to worry about that. Only worry when you stop seeing them!"

A trans friend of mine lost about half of his hair before he started Finasteride. I just started my prescription. I'm not ready to be balding.

As for beards and facial hair, I'm always looking at guys with hair or stubble. I have moderate dysphoria about it. I've been on T about a year and a half, so I have some facial hair but not enough. I seem to have relatively good coverage, but the hairs aren't coarse enough, and a lot of them are too blond to be visible. So I shave once a week or so. I should do it semiweekly, but I'm lazy.

The worst is when I see my brother's Facebook photo. He has a thick, lush beard. I have to keep telling myself that I'll have a beard like that in time, if I want it. In the meantime, I can't keep my eyes off his.
