Has anyone used Rogain for women?
I am so worried about loosing my hair!!! I know it will be worth it, but my hair is my absolute favorite part about myself :-( Its down to my butt almost and blonde blonde blonde. Its already on the thin-side, so I am worried about when I start losing... its going to look horrible :-( I thought about not washing it everyday but my hair is so blonde and thin I dont think I could get away with it.
Has anyone used rogain for women and if so did it help at all??
Any tips on how to make it not fall out as fast ...or any products I should try?
Is your hair curly at all?
If not, have you considered investing in a really good, big barrel (think Taylor Swift-ish / etc) curling iron?
Curls tend to make your hair look fuller, especially big loose curls.
Sorry, wish I could help you with the rogain, but you'll be in surgery before I am :)
From talking to women around on the board (hair issues are a big concern for me as well) I've gotten the impression that when you're body goes into shock (like in rapid weight loss) is when your hair may fall out (kind of stuns your follicles like fainting goats) and once it gets comfortable and gets it's bearings again will resume like normal.
Or start looking up really cute up-do's on the net?
Should only be for a few months, so even just a temperary change of style may be all that's
needed :)

Hi there! I under stand! I had my surgery march 17 2003 and when my hair started circling the drain I freaked out! My hair was long black and curly and was falling out all over mainly on the top and the front edges so what I did was buy a good draw string ponytail! They are inexpensive and their are different lengths and you can go stright to a little curly. At first I was a little afriad of people staring at me but I got over that real quick! For me it was either people stairing at my bald spot or looking at me like wow! there goes one fine confident woman! Oh and I used hair gel to slick down the sides and the edges a good protien one and you can go to just about anywhere to get a drawstring ponytail and just remember to use bobby pins to hold it in place. But eventually your hair will stop falling out. A friend om mine who also had it done uses probiotics Hair Skin and Nail vitamins and her hair is nice and thick and I use them too and I swear by them! Rogain......I didnt bother
Take a Zinc suppliment to stop hair loss. The easiest one to take is called cold-Eze, it is a lozenge and you let it melt in your mouth, the cherry one is good, but the others have an aftertaste. If you can't get that use a 50 mg Zinc tablet for about a week, ... since Zinc is a metal it stays in your body a while, I take mine in alternate weeks...When I use the losenge it is more fully absorbed and a packet will last me a month.. again see my other posts for tips....Denise
