Hi guys,
It's so interesting reading your posts.
I was diagnosed with Androgenetic Alopecia almost 4 years ago. Put on 4% minoxidol with progesterone. Worked amazing and within a year I had the hair of my dreams. No more extensions!
Then I had to fill out a medical form with the hair loss clinic about 6 months ago and because of the history of breast cancer in my family they changed my formula to caffeine instead of progesterone. After that, my hair slowly started thinning out again. When I told the clinic, they said it can't be the formula as the progesterone is just a carrier and the active ingredient, the minoxidol is the same. They have now put me on 5% minoxidol, just in case but I'm not convinced that it will work.
Just in case, I'm doing weekly microneedling, laser cap every two days and I'm getting PRP done on Monday. (I had a few PRP sessions 3-4 years ago when I first started the treatment)
I'm very worried that I will not be able to get back the beautiful hair I've grown or that I'll keep losing my hair. Anyone else in similar shoes?
