Well it’s hairwash day. I dread these days. I try so hard not to let it affect me but I can’t help it when I lose so much all at once and then even after my hair is dried they continue to fall at a faster rate for at least a day. I only wash it twice a week but it’s not like it ever looks any...

Thank you, I know it sounds silly but it’s the embarrassment really and he always tells me he’d never go anywhere but when your feeling so down it’s hard not to think these things. It’s a taboo subject for most people, dunno about you girls but when I do venture out I constantly check out...

South of England. X

Makes me so angry! I used to collect the balls of hair and take them out on the desk much to their disgust and show them how much I was losing. Yes it can be seasonal but not at this rate and besides you only shed a few months every few years!! Anagen phase should be between 2-4 years. They...

Wishing we were all close by at least we have each other lol as it seems we all have the exact same story and feel the same desperation. Thanks girls

Just how I feel but then I’m told to ‘put things in perspective’ when I voice it. If it wasn’t for my 3 kids. I said if it was because of an illness I could accept it but how can I when no one is willing to do anything but so quick to hand out drugs that’s cause this. It’s our self esteem it’s...

So I’ve just got back from the doctors where I let rip when I was asked the usual questions ‘are you feeling low?’ Etc. Basically what I was told is that sometimes with chronic conditions you have to learn to deal with it and accept it!!!!! Wtf. I went ape. There are no more tests they can offer...

This could be my story too. Sofia I completely echo everything you just said! I feel the same way and have had drs day the same things and as bad as it sounds and probably selfish at least with an illness there’s a reason and a treatment plan but I feel we are all just in limbo and the...

No problem your English is good! I spend days not wanting to leave the house too and crying uncontrollably. My husbands younger than me and I often wonder when he will leave me over it. It ruins your life

I’ve heard about it, it’s where they inject essential vitamins directly into the scalp? I would give anything a go to be honest however I’m a little sceptical on it. I’ve tried all the laser therapy’s etc and was considering prp but again I’m not sure that would work. I’ve been using...

I hear you!! It’s SO upsetting and frustrating and when you are constantly told that there is nothing wrong with your body (all tests come back normal) and that there no apparent reason it’s unacceptable! I can’t get my head round it. THERE IS a reason. I’m coming up to 3 years now with CTE and...

Sorry to hear this user1993 I started taking yaz only 3 months ago in order to stop a 3 year shed so far it’s done nothing for me. The shedding is still coming and I’m colouring in my parting now. It’s such a horrible and confidence draining thing to deal with. I just don’t know the solution...

So it’s been another month and I’ve now been on yaz for 2 months. It’s not stopped my shedding not helped that much that i can see. In fact my hair is a bit drier. Had a really bad day last weekend after washing I lost lots more than the previous time and it just all got too much. I had a...

I’ve never taken yaz before now. I’ve used plenty but after the Dianette I thought I’d try one of the very few that might help, And that’s the reason I chose it for its anti androgenic properties. Fingers crossed it will help. Having dark hair doesn’t help with the landing strip and monk spot...

I hear you! It’s really not fair. I wish I’d researched more before putting these chemicals into my body. I too developed scalp dermatitis when my shedding started I also seem to get more greys although I am 35. The Telogen Effluvium was kicked off by the coil and didn’t stop during or after but it did...
