I have lost more hair in the past 2 weeks than I did in a year and it isn't stopping. WTF IS HAPPENING

 

[ScaredOfBalding]

U cannot lose hair in 2 weeks, calm down.

I did, I have a large bald spot in 2 weeks, everyone has been commenting on it and every day, my hair is visibly thinner than the day before

Drop the finasteride, spironolactone and estrogen and switch to dutasteride

I was on dutasteride for 9 months and my DHT had increased in the time. I am a non responder to dutasteride

 

[scaredabouthair]

Had another blood test now the results of which I will know on saturday. If I do not have low DHT with this, I do not know what to do next.

 

[maxou]

What dutasteride were you on?

 

[scaredabouthair]

What dutasteride were you on?

generic dr reddys 2.5mg

 

[maxou]

2.5mg? That's intense...You should have seen some decrease in DHT. This is convincing me that dutasteride from inhouse/alldaychemist is BS

Why not get a valid prescription for dutasteride?

You can actually lose a large number of follicles in that time. Large enough to be visible.

Man, you are at risk of losing more than just hair with this intense regimen.

at the worst my life

Actually it may be worse to live miserably...

No sex? I am pretty okay with that. I can get a gyno anyway. My gf might leave me though but I actually love my follicles more than her.

I LIVE MISERABLY DURING MY BOUTS OF HAIRLOSS

You may also need therapy. If your entire Universe is gravitating around your hair follicles then your overall wellbeing (at least the mental one) is as frail as your hair and that is a pretty scary thing, isn't it? By chugging any and every chemical you are riali g much more than sex and your GF.

Nope.

 

[Manochoice]

Nope.

Of course you can. I am not sure why you are so strongly denying this. In theory you could lose between 1500 and 3000 strands in 2 weeks, depending on the severity of your hair loss (and type). If this loss is localized/focalized, it would be enough to become a visible chang. People have hair transplant with 1500 hairs to improve overall condition. Losing that much would have the opposite effect.

Nope. U don't lose strands permanently, they grow back thinner every hair cycle. I suggest u educate urself on male pattern baldness. There are cases of agressive male pattern baldness where u lose it in a few years, but in 2 weeks a visible change? Nope.
