  • On top of the weight gain, my hair is turning gray and receding, and I’m growing large quantities of unsightly hair everywhere else.

    Hair growing in unwanted places can just be shaved off. Laser removal might be an option, too.

    Receding hairlines are pretty much preventable these days, the earlier you start the better (I learned about that a few years too late). If you care enough to do something about it, start with Finasteride ASAP. If you want to do more, add Minoxidil. If you want to do even more, treat the hair issue as a skin issue and act accordingly, i.e. read up on anti aging skincare and apply that to your scalp (spoiler: sunscreen is king, everything else is detail optimization).

    About the graying: That is not necessarily bad, gray hair worn with confidence can be very attractive.
