Hallo beste lotgenootjes,

Ben nu bijna 3 maanden aan de propecia. Shedding gehad, niet normaal. Had alleen last van inhammen, nu kan je zo op mijn hoofdhuid kijken (dat kon voorheen niet). Vooral daar waar altijd m'n sheiding in m'n haar zat, zie je dat het flink uitgedund is.

Aan de voorkant van mijn haar, waar het overignens ook heel erg dun is, zie je allemaal nieuw haar de kop opduiken. Het is wel dun, breekbaar, maar wel gepigmenteerd.

Ik ben overigens nog steeds in onderzoek bij een 'second-opinion' dermataloog of mij wel de juiste behandelmethode is toegeschreven. Het is namelijk zo dat mijn eerste dermatoloog PROMPT propecia voor heeft geschreven aan mij zonder bloedtest en/of haarwortelonderzoek. Omdat m'n haar steeds maar blijft uitvallen heb ik dus een second opinion aangevraagd bij een andere dermatoloog. Deze heeft bloedonderzoek en haarwortelonderzoek reeds gedaan. De uitslag krijg ik aanstaande dinsdag.

Wat is nu de juiste beslissing die ik moet nemen? Doorgaan of stoppen? Ik weet het ff niet meer.

MVG MauZ

Doorgaan of stoppen?

www.propecia.com
Day 1: PROPECIA begins working to lower DHT levels.

Month 3: You may notice a slowing of hair loss.

Month 6: You may see evidence of less hair loss. That’s a success. You may actually begin to see some regrowth of hair.

Month 9: If PROPECIA is working for you, at this point you should be maintaining the hair you have. You may even grow back some of the hair you’ve lost.

Year 1: By now you’ll know if PROPECIA is working for you. If it’s not, further treatment is not likely to help.

PATIENCE: Propecia takes time. Do not expect results in 3 months. If you are a good responder, your hair loss will stop at about month 4. You typically will not see any regrowth until month 6 to 8, and your optimum results on the treatment won't be seen until after one full year. Be patient, know that you've got an 83% chance to keep what you have today, and let it do its job.

SHEDDING: Our hair naturally goes through growth and resting cycles. Each hair has its own cycle, and at any given time, a large % of follicles are "resting" while the remainder are "growing" as hair on the scalp. When Propecia enters the system, the sudden removal of DHT from the follicles can sometimes shock a large number of follicles to enter into the resting phase at the same time. Its known as a synchronization of the hair cycle. To the layman, it's frequently known as the "shedding sh*ts". Panic can set in as the person who sought to stop their hair loss, suddenly see's it get worse right before their eyes. The change is typically not noticeable to anyone but the one on the treatment, but its enough to cause many to freak out and lose their stability. We are here to inform you to NOT worry about shedding. If you are shedding, this means you are responding to the treatment. A larger number of hairs have entered into dormancy so that they can rest, and rejuvenate in 2 or 3 months free of any DHT affliction. It's as simple as that. Shedding rarely lasts more than 4 months, and typically results in a sudden "awakening" of large numbers of hairs.
