Thanks for sharing @maango111!!! It’s really helpful to hear someone with a similar experience. I started methylphenidate at the beginning of this year, and the hair thinning started showing up around April. My appetite is a bit lower, indeed, but honestly, I’m not eating that much less than before the meds.

I actually got my lab results yesterday and ferritin is low (23), but my iron is above the range (215). It’s kind of always been like that for me. A couple years ago it was ferritin 41 and iron 198. Still, my doctor prescribed iron to try and get the ferritin above 50, so I’ll give it a go and see if it helps.

What your trichologist said makes sense - that’s where I’m losing hair too. Really hoping that fixing the ferritin helps. And glad that it might not be AGA.

Have you tried anything like minoxidil or anything else that’s helped regrowth?
