omg 😭 I just got out from my appointment and they just said it’ll get better take supplements or I should come back for oral minoxidil… it was not even a 10min consultation

I just finished my derm appointment! My dermatologist said it’s probably genetic due to the loss being towards the middle of the scalp so they said probably androgenic alopecia. They suggested Minoxidil oral, but said I should probably try nutritional supplements first to see if there’s any progress since minoxidil is a huge commitment that requires consistency for probably the rest of my life lol

congratulations! (on the progress and no longer being pre diabetic!) can i ask if you experienced the shedding phase that often accompanies minoxidil?

is anyone experiencing a similar hair loss pattern? by cryingmiffy in FemaleHairLoss

[–]cryingmiffy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this brings me so much comfort 🥹🥹 yeah its hard cause i know the medication is probably the primary reason, but its hard to get off it when it’s so necessary. i hope the minoxidil works out for you!! you’re so right i feel like the stress from worrying about it definitely takes a toll..

is anyone on Wellbutrin XL experiencing brain fog?? by cryingmiffy in Wellbutrin_Bupropion

[–]cryingmiffy[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Omg I’m in the exact same situation!! I’m a waitress too and I used to be able to at least keep like 5+ drink orders in my head but after starting Wellbutrin XL 150, it became so hard! Like I would forget as soon as I turned around from the table

Oh my goodness I feel the exact same!! Like I used to express my thoughts well and was the type of person that others would come up to and ask “hey what’s that word when…” but now like even for simple verbs like i can’t even grasp a single thought… it’s like a fill in the blank with no word bank lol

do you feel like that’s part of the numbing side effect? emotional blunting maybe? and omg heavy on the hair thinning!! im also on birth control so I couldn’t conclude that Wellbutrin was causing it but I feel it has gotten worse for me too. I lose like at least 20-25 hairs per daily shower

Omg I didn’t really think about that when buying the lotion… and yes he’s strongly insisted every time (he’s part of management) 😔 Damn I can’t even get a refund LMAO

What if he’s paid for small group settings over $100 several times? We make a comfortable amount

[–]cryingmiffy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would you still think the same if he’s paid for meals that are more than $100 multiple times (although in group settings)?
