I will assume that you are a student of college age (under 30) in answering this quesstion. If you are older, then shock hair loss is less of a risk. If you take Propecia, I have found that the likelihood of having reactive hair loss is significantly less likely. In the days before Propecia I […]

In the past year, I underwent a hair transplant and have consistently used 1mg finasteride along with 1ml topical minoxidil twice daily. Throughout this time, I maintained a sedentary lifestyle without weight training, and there was no extreme shedding. However, in the last two months, I started a regular workout routine. Unfortunately, I’ve observed a […]
21 y/o M Currently been on fin 1mg ED for over a year and a half. Closing in on one year oral min 2.5 mg ED. Got some great results from the combination until about February time I’ve slowly started to get worse and worse. Im still above baseline but I’m starting to consider other […]
Does someone with miniaturized hair who either has shock loss from transplant surgery or accidentally had their miniaturized hair pulled out will finasteride help to regrow them? Or once they’re out, that’s it; the follicle dies, and there can be no more growth? Miniaturized hair loss from surgical hair transplant shock loss often does not […]
Hair loss is caused by genes, hormones (DHT), age (number of hair cycles) and stress. A hair transplant is a stress. In my career, my group has performed over 17,000 surgeries over 31 years so I have seen the impact of a surgery when a man has miniaturized hairs (they lose these miniaturized hairs with […]
I would really appreciate your professional opinion on this matter: I have 10-12 kilograms of weight to lose. It’s been a long time since I did sports or any restriction on my diet. The reason of avoiding such dietary and physical stress is to avoid losing hair. Currently I am following a hair loss regime […]
I have been shedding hair like crazy during the last month. It may be from shock due to losing 10 lbs of weight but I don’t know how rapidly I lost the weight. I am eating less carbs and more protein though. If the hair loss is due to shock how do I reverse this? […]
Had surgery over a month ago and my hair is shedding/thinning like crazy! Could it be related? Shedding after a surgery in a young man is almost always the result of shock loss. I always use finasteride to prevent this in men who are balding, and who are under my care. It is particularly important […]
I had my fourth FUT around 11 months ago and I’ve seen zero improvement. Shock loss kicked in 3 months after the surgery and hasn’t stopped ever since. All kinds of hair (native/transplanted/vellus) are shedding. My body can’t tolerate finasteride so I bought a laser helmet which I’ve been using for 3 and a half […]
I can so relate to the brow loss hair post. I’m so fearful that I made a bad decision about having a forehead lift because I, too, am losing lots of hair from the top and sides of my head. I am 7 weeks out and panic stricken because, around the incision, I am starting to […]
I had my hair transplant and took Propecia. I had no hair loss, so a year afterward I stopped the Propecia and felt secure that I would not experience hair loss. Now 1 and a half years later, I am losing hair. Is this delayed shock loss? You must remember that the hair loss process […]
If you are losing hair, it is most likely not the transplanted hair, but your native hair. At the age of 25, shock loss can be expected ,and to prevent this, you should have been put on the drug Finasteride, which usually stops this from happening. You can’t go back and reverse the hair you […]
This is classic shock loss. It is very common in men under the age of 30 after a hair transplant. It can be prevented with the drug Finasteride. This patient will now have to have a transplant to fill in the “hole”that appeared behind the transplanted hair.
I belieeve that you are addressing the hair loss on the sides and in the back that are shown in the photo shown by the arrows. I have never seen this type of loss outside of the transplanted area and in areas (particularly the side) where the hair is usually permanent. Time will tell (6 […]
“I was nervous as hell going into the church for the wedding. I will admit a lot of people didn’t recognize me at first and I got some shocked looks when I spoke and said who I am. “But the point of this is… no one cared what my hair or lack there of look […]
