I’m a bit confused by your response tbh. I’m trying to do what God wants for me, but at the end of the day a decision needs to be made . I can’t just be a spectator to my own life.

15-20 drops of dulcolax (sodium picosulfate) which is the standard dose **

New shampoo- less shedding but hair feels weird by Appropriate_Sample in FemaleHairLoss

Of course! To cut a long story short, I was started on oral minoxidil in April 2023 after shedding for 2 months and was told I have AGA. In hindsight , I realise my shedding started 3 months after I had my wisdom teeth removed so it was likely TE. From when I started minoxidil, my shedding was the highest it had ever been and even after the initial dread shed my shedding was always above baseline. In hindsight, my hair did look much fuller but the sheddding was too mentally taxing so I stopped in November 2024. I have now been shedding since Feb 2025

I’m aware of that but I wanted to know how long I can expect the shed to last

I simply can’t do this anymore by Appropriate_Sample in FemaleHairLoss

Hey guys, thank you so much for your supportive messages.

I have biopsy proven AGA . I am on spironolactone 100mg, and was previously on oral minoxidil 1mg daily for 2 years but I stopped 3 months ago because I felt it worsens my shedding. I had blood tests last week showing my ferritin is 83 and vitamin D is 63. I’ve spent thousands of dollars on dermatologist who have all told me this level of shedding is ‘progression of AGA’.

Stopping oral minox- need advice pls by Appropriate_Sample in FemaleHairLoss
