A side step forward, maybe, pic

Temple growth or not. Well I'm not too sure, but there does seem to me some thickening on my right temple. Although, on the centre top of the head the fight seems to have lost a bit.

Everyone, especially the new members complain all the time there are no pics, so I'm posting a couple. I tried to match the colors and exposure but the angles and light directions are obviously differing. Also note that in the earlier pic the temple hair are trimmed shorter, and elsewhere too lengths differ. I've cropped both images with a small bump at the bottom right of the pic in mind. Also note the newer picture has a steeper angle that can mislead the viewer into thinking that the temple area has 'shrunk'. To clarify, it hasn't, at least not noticeably.

So, is it my delusion or has there been a slight improvement?

PS: pics are probably only up for 24hrs and will likely be deleted by the host after that.

You're right that it's difficult to tell with the different zooms of the pics and that glare on the second shot, but it looks like you're right - the hairs on your right temple look thicker and stronger. They're also longer but there does seem to be improvement. Congrats!

What's your regimen?

thx, sdguy, so maybe I'm not kidding myself, but as you said, it is a v small improvement. There is no fixed regimen, and there are too many factors and changes in the past months, so it's hard to pin down. There are two things that come to my mind though- there is no supplementation of any sort, and there are mild oiling and massaging about once every two days. And yes, I've been on some ayurvedic meds for my digestive troubles all these months, so that complicates any regimen that I could outline.

Agreed your temple area looks better. The hairs are thin short and wispy in the 1st pic. In the 2nd they are thicker and darker looking.
