Just Had An Appointment With A Trichologist

Hello, I went to have my hair checked under a microscope for miniaturisation. My hair on top of my head had less miniaturisation than my side and back. Any idea why this is?
She was on about my diet and lack of protein.

Im currently alternating Avodart and fineasteride. Also using minoxidil on temples.

Also she was on about pea protein, do anyone use this?

Probably just because of male pattern baldness, your diet is irrelevant unless you're insufficient as f***

What did she say about pea protein? Never heard anything positive or negative about this in my life.
That said, diet can affect every aspect of her health.

She said it was good protein.....something along the lines of good amino acids for hair health and told me to stay away from whey protein. She had a picture of a guy who had regrown ALOT of his hair from pea protein, whether its true or not I dont know ( she showed me pictures).

She didn't believe in Laser helmets but would happily prescribe finasteride and minoxidil.

I soon as I saw my diet that she wrote down i was gobsmacked how bad it actually was. Literally nothing good. She also recommended eggs and red meat for hair health.
