Avatar m tn s due to using findriside for hair loss. My hair is fine but not worth it now. I only just noticed it four days ago and have immediately stoped taking the medication. Would you say I have done permanent damage or when the findristride is totaly out if my system will it all go back to normal. I have an okay sex life and I am 32.
Avatar n tn Propose that your partner try Avodart. I think it really helps with prostate enlargement. That is what the television commercials say anyhow. Unfortunately it also can cause a large reduction in semen production. AND women wanting to become pregnant should NEVER touch the pill as it can cause birth defects if they are exposed at all to it. You can Google Avodart read all of this yourself from a variety of sites, including Avodart's manufacturer.
Avatar f tn Hair grows in cycles and some times we have more hair loss than others. Stress will certainly cause more hair loss. And opiate withdrawals causes stress. When you take opiates for a long time like you have, your body's physiology has been altered. Your central nervous system has created a multitude of opioid receptors that all are screaming for endorphins (opiates) to fill them, but your body has now forgotten how to make them by itself.
Avatar n tn Finasteride goes by the brand name Propecia (for MPB) and Proscar (for BPH) and is a 5-alpha reductase inhibitor used to treat male pattern baldness (MPB) and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) [enlargement of the prostate]. The medication works by inhibiting the enzyme that converts testosterone to its bioactive metabolite dihydrotestosterone thus decreasing its levels in the body.
Avatar f tn I assumed that that was stress-related. After a few years, I am still experiencing hair loss, although I am no longer stressed. I wash my hair twice a week. I lose about 50-70 strands in the shower, and on days where I do not wash my hair, I probably lose about 10-20 strands. I then thought it might have been a nutrient deficiency. I have been taking supplements (including those with plenty of biotin and collagen) for about five months, but I have not seen any positive change.
Avatar f tn Has anyone had hair loss post tx, like 1 yr. later. I am having alot of hair loss in the past 3 weeks. I am also wondering if it is o.k. to take hair vitamins. Not currently on tx. I take fish oil, garlic, vit D and calcium. I think since I am not on tx. that this is O.K. Am I wrong?

Avatar f tn I have to first ask if you have had your thyroid checked? This is a reason for many women having hair loss. Since you are noting some nutritional deficiencies, can you rebalance those to see if it impacts your hair loss? That's what I'd try. Have your thyroid checked. And is there any hope for you with the various hair loss products out there to improve things?
Avatar f tn I am a young female with PCOS. The initial complaint that I brought to my doctor was experiencing hair growth on my face, excess hair growth on my arms/legs/bikini, and hair loss on my head. I've since begun laser hair removal on my face and arms, but I am about 4 treatments in (24 wks) and am not noticing results. It is becoming more and more difficult to hold my head high- many days I don't even want to be seen in public.
Avatar f tn my husband is getting ready to start treatment. i am wondering about hair loss. does this always happen? and does it come back after treatment?
192918 tn?1199451179 So this is a very silly question - but I'm having A LOT of hair loss....to the point that I'm getting some ugly bald spots (not at all pretty on women!!) When I finally get on the right meds, will my hair grow back or will I always be stuck with bald spots/thin hair?

Avatar n tn ve looked at several medication blog sites and have seen numerous posts of women reporting hair loss from anti-depressants including Wellbutrin so I was really questioning the validity of the "less than 1%" finding from the Wellbutrin trials.
Avatar n tn In November i was on anti biotics and anitflammatory for nearly 3 weeks for a sport related injury and was under alot of stress so i dont know if that had more to do with it, i have visited 2 doctors in regards to this and 1 of them said it could be androgenetic without even doin any tests or asking about family history, he told me to use anaphase shampoo and chronotism sprays which is a course of 1 month, now its been 3 weeks and i still see hair fall in the shower and hair is thin,i have cut
Avatar f tn Week 28 - hair started falling out big time at week 18? Can't remember exactly. I just keep cutting it shorter and shorter. I've lost over 1/3 and still have a long way to go on tx. I don't think it's shallow to be concerned about hair loss. Guys seem to almost expect it but women don't usually have excessive hair loss. It's very concerning to me but I'll get a wig if I have to. My real concern is beating this virus.
Avatar f tn When i turned 26 i started losing tons of hair and the nexxus in the gold bottle helped stop a lot of hair loss and helped grow my hair back! Its expensive but it worked for me and a few other women i knew as well.
Avatar f tn (They also can cause facial and body-hair growth.) Hair loss also can be triggered by diseases such as lupus. Women sometimes lose hair following substantial and rapid weight loss or a high fever, or after going through major surgery or extreme stress. " I KNEW IT! Neither my gyn nor my onc/gyn were aware of this. Nor my internist who ran thyroid and blood tests trying to find a cause for the hair I've been losing for the past year.
