Medscape November 17, 2014 This is an interesting quote from a female doctor about a problem that is not uncommon. My son, a practicing surgeon, lost a colleague to suicide this year and that was not the first suicide at his hospital. Everyone was shocked. The suicidal doctor clearly did not communicate what must have […]

I am not sure what your doctor means by “stabilized”. In young men, the hair situation is progressive, so unfortunately stability is not the rule. After a hair transplant, some of the hair loss will increase (shock loss)… so a hair transplant is destabilizing. You should be on finasteride for a good few weeks before […]
Snippet from the article: Read the rest — Wenger warns stars over hair loss products He says hair loss medications can lead to liver problems, though he doesn’t specifically say which medications he’s concerned about. As far as I’m aware, finasteride (Propecia) does not have any adverse effects on the liver.
Snippet from the article: Read the rest — Kim Kardashian displays shocking hair loss and extensions after ‘relying on weaves to boost her post-pregnancy thinning locks’ It’s possible that the loss is caused by hormone changes following her recent pregnancy, but hair extensions into weakened hair might be doing more harm to her hair. The […]
Snippet from the article: Read the rest — Hair loss linked to Chch quakes The earthquakes and aftershocks in New Zealand’s 2nd largest city were obviously quite stressful to the residents. This is an interesting article, but earthquakes themselves do not cause alopecia areata. The stress associated with the earthquakes surely can bring upon alopecia […]
While it is possible that you won’t advance beyond a Norwood class 3 hairline, I don’t trust doctors who give eyeball opinions for predicting hair loss. There are some good tests (miniaturization mapping and better yet, bulk analysis) that will tell you with some certainty if you are balding. The decision to take drugs like […]
Borage (also known as starflower oil) is used by herbalists to treat PMS issues in women. At least, that’s what I found via Google… because I wasn’t familiar with it. It’s just another herbal treatment that some people claim can treat hair loss. It doesn’t. There’s no herbal treatment that I’ve found to treat MPB […]
Propecia is taken for treating androgenic alopecia, not for shock loss following underbite correction surgery. Hair loss after general anesthesia or medical issues is not related to androgenic alopecia. If you were prescribed Propecia to treat your genetic hair loss, it might protect you… but I wouldn’t recommend the medication solely for protecting from a […]
If you want to have a hair transplant, taking Propecia (finasteride) in advance and through the process beyond 8 months, should reasonably be expected to prevent shock loss from the transplant. This has been my experience. Hair loss is progressive, and taking this medication should halt or slow your continued loss so that you’re not […]
That’s a nice looking transplant result in the first photo set in the article. The article goes over the various treatments that are available, and warns about scarring and shock hair loss following transplant surgery. Nothing new here that we haven’t written about dozens of times before on this site, unless I’m missing something. It […]
False. I’ve never heard of a case where donating blood has caused shock hair loss.
Practically speaking, unless your health insurance pays primary doctors for hair loss exams, it will likely not be on the agenda. Hair loss is seen as a cosmetic issue and most doctors don’t know much about it. Perhaps if the majority of patients are willing to pay the doctor for a hair loss exam it […]
Keep in mind there is some cursing in the video, so if you’re at work or somewhere that requires the F word not to be uttered, you should probably wait to watch the video. It’s very funny, though! Here’s the trailer: Teaser – Chris Weisberg is Growing Bald – watch more funny videos
I love this. Thanks for sending it! This is a clip from season 1 of “I Love Lucy” that originally aired in 1952. There’s not much more I can add here, so just watch the video below and enjoy!
If you are losing this much hair at such a young age, it is not a good sign. There is a risk that you may go on to lose all of your hair before you are 30 years old. Despite what you may think, you will still care how you look like when you are […]
