It's been 7.5 months and situations is just getting worse and worser. Will my native hair grow back? Is there any hope for situation to improve ? Please find attached before and after fue hair transplant.
Answer: Shock Loss after 7.5 months Shock loss is due to the loss of normal hair whether it is from donor site or recipient area. It can occur with both FUE and strip procedures. Usually if it occurs it will take place in the recipient area. Individual results may vary.

Answer: Hair thinning 7.5 month post 1200 FUE, shock loss? y14, That is a huge area to cover with such a tiny number of grafts. There is extensive miniaturization in the frontal, mid-scalp and crown areas. A post-surgical graft placement pic would be useful. What medical regimen are you taking? The natural progression of your condition is that all the hair on top of your head in your before photos are destined to be lost eventually without medical intervention.

Answer: Shock Loss? One possibility that may explain why you haven't recovered from shock loss is that the hair you lost was destined to be lost anyways- hairs you lost that were on their last cycle were never going to regrow back and were on their last cycle of growth, so the shock loss simply caused them to all fall out at once. But without knowing the details of the rest of your transplant, it's incredibly hard to give you an accurate answer. Check with your doctor about this if you haven't already.

Answer: Shock less Shedding after a hair transplant while on the drug propecia is unusual so this drug is critical to preventing shock loss. I doubt it is coming from the drug, but rather an acceleration of your normal hair loss process. If the shedding is in the transplanted area, the new grafts, when they grow, will off set it. If the shedding is from all over the front and top of the head it sounds like shock loss which usually accelerates the hair loss that you might have seen two years after a hair transplant had you not been on the drug. If you are developing a more advanced balding pattern with acceleration of your hair loss, which a Bulk Measurements with the HAIRCHECK instrument can provide, it will show over a one year time frame, what exactly is your hair loss (in numbers) and then you and your doctor need to develop a MASTER PLAN for what may happen to you.
