The hair before - my hair now
I’ve always had thin fine hair but since 3 years ago it’s started worsening. You can check other post in my profile and see how my hair looked roughly 3 months ago. Surprise - it got even worse. I started loosing hair in the temples and overall further thinning. After many months visiting doctors back and forth, checking hormones, blood, iron, vitamin D, ferritin, all were in place, except ferritin that was on the minimum but according to my doctor still “fine”. I didn’t accept “fine” as the answer and was told they can’t do anything else and I may also visit psychologist because it’s likely all “in my head”. Disappointed by all the specialists I’ve been to, I have decided to start taking high dose of prolonged release iron, zinc, vitamin D shots and minoxidil foam. Hair shedding is much less and I start seeing some regrow. The future still remains unknown. I still have hope. Please share other tips if someone shares same story as mine. I’ve learnt a lot from this subreddit.
P.S. The first photo collage: photo on top is my temples 2 months ago, bottom is hair regrow now. Second photo is my hair 3 years ago (and yet I was complaining about it being too thin, how little did I know what was waiting in the future).
