So what casued this after 5 months...Return to Shedding..

[SadinOregon]

Hi Folks,

Was on here about 5 months ago..used minoxidal foam for about a week and a half..totally wiped out my tuft ( better than nothing) LOL. After a couple months it grows in but thinner then it was (pretty much where it was was before I used minoxidil but not as dense. So everything stats about the same until a month ago when I start to notice that on one side it is noticeably thinner again? I have 3 theories none of which are rooted in solid evidence so thought I would ask you guys about similar experiences. There was no way after a week and a half the tuft hairs became dependant on Minoxidal so I think I can rule that one out. BUT I was a vegetarian since the beginning of the year and theory 1 is I seriously messsed up protein, essential vitamins for the folicles and they started to get damaged. Theory 2 is I used (off and on) Nizoral but stopped when I started to notice this. Theory 3 is that the hair that regrew was on a natural cycle and this caused it? (although I though terminal hairs hang around for quite some time)..

I appreciate the input and I post updates because there are some like myself who decided not to stay on Minoxidal after a shed. However, information and follow up is few and far between,,

Regards,

Kev

Nizoral had nothing to do with it. maybe it was your diet but i DOUBT it wad that.

Thanks for responding... I have read things about nizoral before googling it so thought might be the culprit..I find it weird maybe hairs that grew back and cycling after 5 months..Diet..who.knows

When you say one side is thinner, you are talking about a receding hairline, correct?

well my hairline had been receding for years but I still had this middle tuft part at the front.when minoxidal caused it all to.shed (see my posts from last Sept)..it was actually more pronounced on one side..it came back..thinner..but then after 5 months..this..I have read with interest your thread with secretbatman btw..

Right. So for years my hairline has been receding but the front tuft remained. You can see my Minoxidal foam posts from Sept about that fiasco. After it wiped out the tufit slowly grew in but thinner. And yes it looked like one side was more affected than the other..which of course is the side that appears thinner even more over the last month..I.have looked at the thread with you and secretbatman btw
