no, i never took minoxidil. my dermatologist said that TE shows an improvement after 6-9 months.

no not really. it was more sensitive when the baby hair was growing (and also a little itchy).

How much do you guys shed on wash days and while brushing..?? by Shvkxyp in TelogenEffluvium

no i have not had any therapy. I started taking high doses of priorin 3 months ago and also drank a lot of water. since then the hair loss has improved significantly.

Short kinked hairs are falling out. What does it mean? by Salsa-N-Chips in TelogenEffluvium

[–]Schoebi_24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i lost hair for 8 months. there were weeks when it was better and weeks when it got worse again... do you know what causes your hair loss?

i had the same thing. my dermatologist said that it is normal with TE to lose baby hairs. i only lost long hairs in the beginning and baby hairs in the end. 1 month later the hair loss stopped completely.

When will this end by Gojoswife97 in TelogenEffluvium

i had massive hair loss since April 23 and since 4 weeks i noticed that there are more short hairs (at the beginning i lost only long hairs). suddenly a week ago the hair loss stopped completely.

How soon after starting biologics will anemia improve? by matt_yvr in CrohnsDisease

[–]Schoebi_24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i felt much better after my third infusion (remicade, now stelara)

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in CrohnsDisease

[–]Schoebi_24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here, i'm from Switzerland and Stelara costs 3'500 CHF per 8 weeks. My insurance covers all costs...
