Rogaine messed up my hair really bad!

[Ramazan]

So i'm 2 months into using it twice a day and the shedding is starting to slow down the front part of my scalp the back part is still a bit of a mess with the shedding, but i seem to be loosing more thin hairs than thick hairs. One other thing that is bothering me is the fact that i'm starting to shed a lot of tiny hairs (around 0,12 inches?) what the hell?? The tiny hairs seem to be from the sides of my head? Could it be that this is happening because of the rogaine spilling down to my sides??

A quick update. I got a message from my doc. with the result of my blood samples. It shows that i'm suffering from d vitamin deficiency, as my d vitamin value is 18 and 25 is considered low. He was of teh oppinion that my sudden increase in har at the fact that my hair falls out easly is due to this deficiency. I'm now on 35ug d vitamins a day. hope to see some results soon...

great to hear.. more evidence that being pro-active and working with your doc is the way to go..
whether it is your general physician for blood work and routine health maintenance (particularly when starting a new med such as Finasteride),
or keeping the relationship alive with your HT surgeon after your surgery, and going back in every year to get your hair miniaturization study done (this way you keep tabs on the progress of your hair loss).
I think not too many HT patients do this currently... I'm attaching my results just so people get to see what this looks like.


Anyway, Ramazan, you did the right thing and I commend you and your physician for figuring out what is going on. Please keep us updated!
