Donald Trump told to 'shave it off' as huge thinning spot is exposed in hair blunder

According to a report from the White House, President Donald Trump's first annual physical exam showed he is in "excellent" health, but they weren't talking about his hair

The White House has released a report stating that President Donald Trump is in "excellent" health, following his first annual physical exam of his second term.

The health of the 78-year-old Republican has been a hot topic, with critics questioning his ability to perform his duties due to his age and dietary habits. Recent discussions have focused on visible bruises on his hand and noticeable hair loss.

Recently, social media users have shared numerous unflattering images of Trump, poking fun at his bald patches. One user captioned: "What the heck is going on with the Trump hair. Grip baldness man and shave it off!".

It comes after Trump suffered a mental collapse after a 'senile' moment last week and came up with a ludicrous way to make himself look taller.

In previous interviews, Trump's longtime physician, Dr. Harold N. Bornstein, revealed that during his first term, Trump took medications for three conditions, including a prostate-related drug to promote hair growth.

The other medications are antibiotics to manage rosacea, a common skin condition, and a statin for high cholesterol and lipids.

This revelation that Trump has used a prostate-related drug to maintain his scalp hair, previously unknown to the public, seems to explain why Trump has a very low level of prostate-specific antigen, or PSA, a marker for prostate cancer.

Dr. Bornstein disclosed that Trump takes a small dose of the drug, finasteride, which lowers PSA levels. Finasteride is marketed as Propecia to treat male-pattern baldness.

He also said that Trump also uses finasteride and attributes it to maintaining his own shoulder-length hair and Mr. Trump's hair. "He has all his hair," Dr. Bornstein stated, "I have all my hair."

Bornstein mentioned that Mr. Trump had been visiting his East Side office for annual checkups, colonoscopies, and other routine tests every year since 1980. Prior to that, Mr. Trump was a patient of Dr. Bornstein's father, Dr. Jacob Bornstein.

However, the MHRA has reported in recent years that the hair drug can lead to a depressed mood, suicidal thoughts, and sexual dysfunction, including a decreased sex drive.

The agency stated there is a lack of awareness about these potential side effects and has therefore issued a safety alert. This means the drug's packaging will include an alert about the side effects and instructions on what to do if users experience any.

Despite the product information warning of the risk of depression and suicidal ideation, the side effects were not well-known by prescribers and patients.

Dr Alison Cave, MHRA Chief Safety Officer, told the Independent: "It's crucial that patients are aware of vital information about the medicines they're taking."
