Is there a connection between the two things? I recall when my hairloss initially started which was about 4 months ago, I started to breakout. That was very rare for me because I grew up with nice skin. My skin was one of my biggest compliments. But anyways, the breakouts got kinda bad and I just tried to ignore it. Now that it's been 4 months, the pimples have completely cleared away. My skin is once again perfect. I find this very odd!!! Any ideas?

Hi Babie_b,

Are you the same Babie_b I exchanged emails with, (I'm Laura :) ) if so, hi!

Anyway I believe that there is a correlation between acne and testosterone. Therefore, it could be that there is a fluctuation in your hormones happening, which is either making the testosterone levels elevated, or higher than normal, or that your estrogens are lowered...basically what I'm getting at is that if that is the case, then you probably will see some shedding.

A little more info on this can be found here, http://www.heralopecia.com/treatments/dht_inhibit.php at the bottom of the page.

Hope this helps,

Laura
