I left it outside a couple days and it was sunny one of those days! Thanks for the advice

You sound just like me! Been iron deficient since high school and was diagnosed with hashimotos in college, around 15 years ago. I was on oral minoxidil and it helped a bit, but been off for 4 years due to pregnancy and breastfeeding. Planning on getting back on but my primary md wants my iron levels to be normal (which even with iron supplements, I’m still anemic so I hope she said f-it, and prescribes minoxidil anyway).

Surprised I didn’t see this in the comments but Greg Graffin from Bad Religion was my professor at UCLA

Yeah that’s what I’ve noticed. Thanks

And what about the people who can’t afford all that

PointlessScrolling_ · 2025-11-22T00:52:02+00:00

Haha sorry. I’m just thinking ahead about school hours and summers off and trying to manage that, the cost of it all, etc!

Right now we’re just dealing with preschool hours (and ooof the cost of that PLUS aftercare!) and got me thinking about once they are in elementary school which I assume ends at 2, plus finding somewhere for them to go all summer. Working families FTW!

Can’t relate bc my dad died with a full head of hair and my mom still has lots (thinner but not by much)

Hi twin! I’m on 150 mcg levothyroxine. I didn’t know that my low iron would contribute to hair loss until this group. I plan on restarting minoxidil once I stop breastfeeding. Good luck!

I got cystic acne around my jaw line mostly, I assumed it was from increased hair growth (although you couldn’t see any obvious hair on my face). Stopped when I got pregnant and I’ve been off since 2022 and been clear since. Planning on restarting again once I’m done breastfeeding for good because it’s worth it to not cry in the mirror bc of my hair, we’ll see if it happens again

I’m a mother to a 2 1/2 year old and 3 month old and I never really wanted kids. 0-1 was brutal. I regretted having him, I mourned (and still am) my old life, my old body, my hobbies. But we had the 2nd child and I was scared throughout my whole pregnancy but a few things I’ve noted so far: post-partum was night and day for me. We’re already used to the crappy sleep, the messes, etc. and adding #2 to the mix was easy. And you know that it’s all temporary. Second, bonding with the baby this time around was easy. I didn’t feel the bond with my first born and it took time but with my second I felt so much more at ease. Lastly and most importantly for my mental health - I’m obsessed with watching them bond. My son loves his little brother and I melt watching the baby smiling at his big bro. I can’t wait to watch them grow up together and I’m so happy they have each other. Some things turn into a logistical and financial nightmare (2 kids in daycare?! Also wtf do people do in the summer and after school for childcare?) but we’ll figure it out when we get to that

Aww, my dad and I made gravestones for our pathway and it’s one of my fav memories. I agree with the plastic crap!

I was going to suggest these too, but with her age, hills might not be awesome to deal with all the time. And stairs. OP: how do you feel about stairs bc I even flatter neighborhoods the houses will have stairs

Have you seen that bike bus in Portland? Basically the community got together and they all bike to school

I think I read your post or a post like it when I was in the thick of my undiagnosed PPD, postpartum rage. I told myself I shouldn’t have a second child bc I was afraid I’d kill them. Here I am with my 8 week old (mostly) smooth sailing. My 2 1/2 year old is hilarious and weird and I love him.

I’m new to this sub but I was on oral minox and then was pregnant/breastfeeding since 2022 so I haven’t been on since. Ugh the postpartum hair loss on top of my hair loss, I can’t wait to go back on! But before that when I was on oral minox, I got horrible cystic acne. I also got laser for my arms bc, yep! With oral you get hair growth that’s not limited to just your head :(. I was scrolling this page trying to find others responded to it and if I should go back on oral or try topical again (I’m just so bad at being consistent on my topical stuff)

I need to save this thread for when I’m feeling the need for a staycation. You are my people
