    Well I went to a hair loss dermatologist and he seems to think all the androgen hair that I've lost lately is due to the 30 pounds I dropped over a 4 month period which can cause up to 6 months of shedding! I started shedding in late August so I should be winding that up. He says that I don't seem to be losing much telogen hair except at the crown and he sees some regrowth there now. He also said my scalp was a little pink and dry so he prescriped some lotion. Hopefully my hair doesn't get too much worse because I'd honestly rather buzz it off and accept it than have the semi-transparent look of wispy hair that I have in some places. All in all it's more waiting for me. I think that's what drive people with hair loss crazy, the wait and see of using medication, waiting to see if/when the shedding will stop, waiting while hair fills the sink each morning. Hair is such a tease!

    Tracy, do you use Rogaine? I didn't expect to receive a response from a woman.
