Re: hair loss/gain??/

I have had some results with the reduction of unwanted hair with a lower carb diet, glucophage and an antiandrogen medication. The hair on my chin is more stubborn but definately more fine than before. I only have to deal with it once a month versus each day. The hair in other places seems to be going away.

I have had limited success with regrowing the hair on my head. Sometimes it seems thicker the it will suddenly come out in handfuls again. I understand that the longer you have gone with hairloss, the less likely you are to regrow it. Hair loss was my first symptom at age 13, 14, or 15.

The only thing that I know for sure is that it is more important that you are as healthy as you can be. If your hair problems go away, that is a bonus. If not, you have done what you can and you will end up healthy.
