Hi there,

I'm new here. I've noticed a lot of shedding in the past 6 months. Saw a dermatologist who prescribed spironolactone 100mg. I'm also on cimetidine 1000mg/day plus biotin, multivitamin and just added fish oil. The thing I noticed that has been helping me the most is, however, is acupuncture. I just started a few weeks ago and the hair loss diminished a lot. I'm hopeful!

Hello,

I have to say I'm actually a little disappointed today. I started acupuncture two weeks ago, The first few days I noticed a big difference, no more hair in drain when I took a shower. Last week, it started again. The doctor said it was because I was having my period, but it should get better again soon. We'll see. I did notice some new hair yesterday, which made me hopeful. I have another session tomorrow. I'm supposed to have 10 sessions. The doctor does not specialize in hair loss, she actually specializes in hormones and infertility, but I thought I'd give it a try. I'll keep you posted. I decided to try acupuncture because I had tried it before for carpal tunnel and it was amazing. It really works! Another thing that I noticed is that I'm a lot less anxious and stressed, so that is a plus. Good luck! I'll let you know how the treatment goes as it progresses.

I love Acupuncture I had no idea you could do it for hair loss! I do it for digestive stuff (I have Celiac Disease) and used to do it for grounding|centering. I started in 1996.

Hope you get what you need from it! :D

My hair dresser notice my hair was thinning on top when I was 20 almost 23 years ago. I have tried everything. I went to a dermatologist and was diagnosed with Female Pattern hair loss (even though the rest of my family(even brother has a full head). I started acupuncture a couple weeks ago and have noticed that I am more relaxed. I will keep you posted on my progress. I am going to continue for a year.
