Lastly, the final piece of Troye’s morning cocktail seems to be finasteride. Per @doctorTeeTee, finasteride is “used to scale back hair loss for individuals with skinny hair or balding.”
The medication works by stopping testosterone from turning into DHT, “a hormone that causes hair follicles to shrink and cease producing hair.”

“In the event that they go on a date with me or one thing like that, and I’m like, ‘Oh by the best way, I’m not, like, a backside,’ I feel they’re like, ‘Oh,’” he defined.
And if that wasn’t sufficient of a sinker, he concluded: “Let me simply clear the report, if you happen to’re going to hit me up, that’s what’s up.”
Let’s get this straight: we’re going to take Sivan at his phrase.
However what about alllll that fiber? And what about “Bloom”? It is a case for the FBI.
