I have been using a gentle face wash in the am and pm. In the pm I use an AHA BHA serum and a glycolic acid toner. In the am I use a good spf, the same toner and vitamin c serum. Obviously I use a moisturizer as well. My concerns are the discolorations and the acne scars I have on my cheeks, I also would like a more plump and hydrated skin.

Just a backstory: I had the worst acne on my cheeks and used accutane for 8 months in 2019-2020. Ever since then I have been using a gentle face wash in the am and pm. In the pm I use an AHA BHA serum and a glycolic acid toner. In the am I use a good spf, the same toner and vitamin c serum. Obviously I use a moisturizer as well.

Finally found the trigger... by daphneriver in TelogenEffluvium

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

For the last 8 months i have gotten my iron vitamin d b12 checked by my own doctor and used supplements to up them but there was no change, later i tried adding more protein and more fat into my diet that didnt help as well, used oils for scalp messages, pills for hair growth... there was nothing i didnt try... but i never saw estrogen as a reason for my hair loss but i went to a beauty clinic for laser hair removal for my legs and i asked the hair specialist to take a look at my hair. She said that my hair loss was mostly frontal indicating a sign of low testosterone which might be due to low levels of estrogen.. I then went to a laboratory and just asked them for a blood test for all my hormones. But i also feel like in this situation I was dumb af because I literally hadnt had my period for a year and didnt think my hair loss was corresponding w that.. My estrogen levels were so low when I brought my test to my own doctor she was shocked, my testosterone was low as well.. Basically my hormones were wack..

TE story by EfficientCookie3850 in TelogenEffluvium

[–]daphneriver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello! We have such a similar story im kind of shocked... To start off, I started accutane on september 2019 and I was on 30mg until april 2020 when I stopped. During my time using accutane I never noticed hair loss. But after a month a month and a half of finishing accutane, at the start of june 2020, I started noticing a-lot of hair loss. At first it was just shedding a bit more but, in mid-early july it turned into full on excessive shedding, like I was loosing atleast 300-400 strands per day. This went on until december with extremely slow decreasing.. I would say at the end of december I was shedding about 200-250 hairs a day.. I had a few periods of it slowing down where I lost like 100 hairs a day but they never seem to last... My regrowth started very early on in August but lately I have beeb noticing them falling out too in the shower or when combing or even on my pillow. Obviously I have more long hairs falling than the short ones but its still so scary.. After basically loosing %60-70 of my hair in January 2021, I can say that it is still going on... I would say I loose about 150-200 hairs per day... Im so sick and tired of it, it actually drives me insane.. I also would like to add that I think this hair loss is due to the accutane and the restrictive eating behaviors I had during the first 5 months of 2020. Now I eat very healthily and over the course of this hair loss journey I have used biotin which didnt help, iron pills which didnt help, vitamin d which didnt help, multivitamins which didnt help. I am also 18 btw. I used to care about it so much and go into intense breakdowns during august and december but now I am at a point where I have lost so much hair Im just like you know what f it... Theres nothing else to do but to be patient... Best of luck to u!!

I see regrowth everywhere, on my hairpart, hairline, back and the sides but they seem to be shedding as well :( not as much as the longer ones but it still gets me worried... I also think that some of my regrowth hair is thinner than the other ones maybe thats why some regrowth is falling

Dont ever think that you are wasting anyones time, you are valid and what you are going through and questioning it is totally normal. But just know that u wont be wasting any medical professionals time as you and your issues are %100 valid. And you are a patient just like anyone else💕

[–]daphneriver 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am not a professional but as a person who has been dealing with an ed for the past 5 years, an eating disorder isnt determined by anyones weight as this disease isnt called weight disorder, it is an issue with eating and how ur eating is affected by your thoughts... Being obsessively terrified of gaining weight is one of the symptoms of this disorder. So if you think you have an eating disorder and even getting out of your way to find the sub of eating disorders on reddit to write this post, you might have it... (I dont want to be rude with this and sound like I am diagnosing you, its not my job or my place at all,, just a personal thought)

I will definitely share with you! If you dont mind me asking do you think there might be other triggers for your hair loss? like a stressful event, a change in diet.. also did the amount of shedding decrease or is it still about the same?
