I'm a woman, 45, with biopsy-proven AGA. 16 months ago, I quit minoxidil after 2 weeks bc of side effects but shed heavily for 5+ months. On my doctor's advice I just quit spironolactone after 3 weeks (25 mg dose) bc of extreme itching on scalp and body & it made my seb derm flare. I'm shedding 200-300 hairs/day since stopping (I shed extra from day 2 of spiro). Given my history of instant heavy shedding, would PRP help stem my current shed? Are there certain PRP protocols more likely to help?
I'm a 21-year-old female with androgenic alopecia. The cause of it was birth control which I no longer take. I take 200mg of spironolactone a day and use rogaine but nothings works. Since starting spironolactone I haven't gotten my period in 6months. Doc did ultrasound & says it might be PCOS and I may have to start birth control again but I'm scared it will make my hair loss worse. Would starting bc make my hair loss worse? Will PRP help with this type of hair loss? Are there other alternatives?
I am thinking about starting 0.25mg minoxidil with Spironolactone. Would it be okay to use 100-200mg Spironolactone and 0.25 minoxidil to treat my FPHL? I am also planning on adding in PRP after a few months. Do you think this is an effective way to maintain the hair I have? Topical rogaine was very irritating to my scalp therefore I would like to use low dose minoxidil instead.
I am a 19 year old female suffering from acne and severe hair loss. I have read on internet about Spironolactone . Also I've had my first PRP session two weeks back. I want to know can I start Spironolactone along with my PRP.I have been on Diane 35 that helped my acne for the time I used it. But my acne were back once I stopped it. Since in PRP, doctors take blood from body and it's advised not to take any blood thinning medicine. Is Spironolactone safe to use while I'm taking PRP sessions.
Is it a safe and effective to use after dermarolling with 0.50mm? Lastly, can women take Saw Palmetto, Pygeum Africanum, Beta-Sitosterol these are all DHT BLOCKERS. Sadly the Nizoral Shampoo and Spironolactone don't seem to help with the massive amount of shedding, that always ends with a new bald.
I am shedding my hair from almost 10 months now . It started when I start taking Sprinolactone, but when I saw I m losing too much hair I stopped medicine after 2 months, then I went in depression and anxiety problems because of my hair loss, I am still losing a lot of my hair. I don't know is it CTE or something else? Please help if it is CTE , will PRP would help
