Although I have not got male pattern baldness, I was told by my doctor that had I had it, the Metformin she gave me would stop it. It's certainly making my XS hair drop out, ie off my fingers and toes, and I've only been on it two weeks.

I agree with you, though, that baldness is different for a woman than a man. My mother had a perm that went wrong a few weeks ago and was warned that the severly damaged skin my never grown hair again. Fortunately this has not proved to be the case, but she was devistated at the time.

Don't be too dismayed at your partner's reaction. It's just a man thing!!!!!! At school I never had a boyfriend because they didn't want to be seen with a werewolf (see my entry on the quilt).

Keep your chin up, good luck with the baby making. It's worth the effort, my own clomiphine baby is now seven.
