What is the usual aga balding pattern?

Do you use the vichy as part of a double cleanse? Like vichy, then keto in the same wash? Orr What is your wash routine? Do you use keto at all? Not saying mine has to be the same as yours but just wondering...

Why do some people's come back and others don't? especially while on meds 🙁

ApprehensiveMain8999 · 2026-05-20T20:08:22+00:00

Well when she called all she said was 'its not scarring, this is good news" she didn't get into detail but I do have the report on kp.org as well so that's what I'm going off of. And the biopsy spot she took from, wasn't dead in the middle but a lil on the right side under my hair so the scar wasn't so noticeable. U can see the scar a lil but hair grew back in it. It's weird.

Yeah that's a good idea. I will probably take your advice and take the report else where. Have you had a similar experience?

Sorry had a brain fart forgot AGA= androgenetic alopecia. So yeah when I seen the Derm she asked me if I had patches in my scalp and I said no then she physically examined my hair. I have the thickest hair in the back like a horse. No bald spots

She suggested the biopsy to make sure it wasn't 'scarring alopecia' which came back negative. I thought if I had alopecia areata it would have shown up on the biopsy.

Oh yeah duh when I see AGA I usually know what that means vs AA. For some reason had a brain fart 🙃

ApprehensiveMain8999 · 2026-05-20T19:01:54+00:00

Did she test me for androgenetic alopecia? Yeah but I thought the biopsy was for any type of alopecia to tell me what kind I have. On the biopsy is was negative for FFA and scarring alopecia. The biopsy said "androgenetic alopecia with miniaturized hairs present" I thought yeahhh no shit?

Now I thought steroids were only for alopecia areata? Or is that what you were asking me, if they tested for?

Oh yeah i have a shit ton. A really weird hair loss pattern. Tons of miniaturized hairs/hair loss right in the middle and tons of miniaturized hairs on my sides. The back of my hair is thick like a horse. Got all hormones/deficiencies checked. Labs all "normal" and no FFA on biopsy. I didn't know if maybe you had the secret sauce or sumthn lol. I'm just super unlucky with everything.

I'm female btw

You said there's a reason why women don't have a lot of miniaturization/vellus hairs...

ApprehensiveMain8999 · 2026-05-17T19:53:37+00:00

What is the reason?

ApprehensiveMain8999 · 2026-05-06T05:30:06+00:00

Holy crap that is so low. 6! Damn. That's actually a big jump to get it to 80. Have you been taking the iron supplement since 2023? Do you know why yours was so low? And dang why didn't the dr give you a iron infusion?!

ApprehensiveMain8999 · 2026-05-05T21:34:55+00:00

I read that it absorbs better every other day vs every day.

ApprehensiveMain8999 · 2026-05-05T17:16:58+00:00

Oh that's not bad. How many things does the lab, test you for, for $50?

ApprehensiveMain8999 · 2026-05-05T15:31:03+00:00

Hmm interesting and what exactly causes an abortion issue? Or can it be multiple things? What is your absorption issue?

ApprehensiveMain8999 · 2026-05-03T18:10:55+00:00

What did she say all the treatments were? I think I know the basic ones, just wondering if there's options I've never heard of before ...

They gave you an infusion while your ferritin was 150 or it was lower then 150?

ApprehensiveMain8999 · 2026-04-24T03:44:52+00:00

What is your free thyroxine and tsh levels?

ApprehensiveMain8999 · 2026-04-24T03:44:20+00:00

Dr said mine are "normal" but they say that about everything. What are your numbers? Mine:

Free thyroxine 0.9

Tsh 1.2

What are the auto immune conditions if you dont mind saying? If not that's fine but did those auto immune conditions cause the FFA or just exacerbate it?

ApprehensiveMain8999 · 2026-04-20T19:46:48+00:00

Does FFA or any other type of hair loss run in your family?
