Roll call/support for all of us whose hair is falling out!
As a woman, my hair is part of my image...I am lucky enough to have a big enough mop of it so as my hair falls out (more on my hair brush, way more shedding strands than normal) I have not noticed patches gone or anything yet..But I know there are some women who have thinner hair and really notice it
It sucks either way!!
So I wanted to say to all the other people with VSG hairloss, especially the young women who are probably as sad as I am to be losing it..
We will be ok, we will get through this together, we tried to do everything to avoid it but some of it is inevitable..It will start to regrow within a few months..and we will be ok.
Hugs all around

How about VSG hairloss combined with male-pattern baldness? I know mine's not growing back!
I think I went through hair loss/thinning between months 3-6
The good news is that it grew back stronger than before with fewer "grey" hairs......and filled in stronger in an area that I was thinning......
I did take Biotin during that time (don't know if it made any difference?) but I think it was/is the high protein that has helped in regrowth.

Honestly if my hair were thin I would have purchased a few wigs until it grew back.
Now I am trying to decide to I cut it? It goes down to the middle of my back, but it is so much thinner and 'looks yucky"....but I don't necessarily want body, I have wavey hair and keeping it longer helps me to keep it straight. ugh
