My hair is getting worse

[brent20]

Hey guys, i've been using Revivogen shampoo and scalpy therapy for about a month now and i just recently added minoxidil 2% to my routine. At first my hair was looking a lot better, felt softer and looked thicker and hair loss lowered significantly, but the last few days my hair has been falling out like crazy and my hair line and vertex are looking worse than ever. This is very demotivating, could this be a shed? I mean i haven't been on either for long enough to see great results, the minoxidil i've been using for a week maybe a little more. thanks guys

I wouldn't worry about it too much, brent20, if you just started your treatments. I don't know about the Revivogen, but the minoxidil shed usually lasts a few weeks. Starting both at the same probably intensifies shedding. Neverthless, it should subside in a few weeks--shedding is totally normal. Just try to think of happy thoughts in the meantime

thanks for the response david, its just demotivating to see my hair fall out at such a rapid rate when it almost stopped falling out completely when i started treatment, but i guess shedding is all part of the process of improving and i'll just have to do my best to ignore it. thanks again

hey brent, it sounds like a shed so just ride it out and things should get better, i would also suggest using the 5% minoxidil, goodluck and keep at it
