Started finasteride 1.5 months ago. I’ve been steadily losing hundreds of hair a day since starting (not sure how much I was losing before). Now my hair is considerably worse and I’m about to give up hope. Either I have RH or I have a very aggressive case of MBP.
I can’t leave the house any more. I ran out of toppik and I feel crippled. I got accepted into a great university but I decided not to go because of my mental health (I won’t be able to focus). I wore a hat for 20 minutes today and pulled off about 10 hairs out of it.
Here are some comparative photos. First two were from when I started and next few are recent (third one was taken with intense flash and shows how bad it is)
I’m going to get a haircut and try to style it better to cover, and with the toppik maybe I’ll be able to do something.
I’ve lost all hope for my future. I’m not even going to college now because I don’t think I’ll be able to get a job in my field with a bald head. I’m going to see a psych soon and get prescribed lexapro but we know that’s not gonna help.
Any words of advice? I’m thinking I’m going to get a system soon before it gets too bad.
