What should i do? ideas? stressed-ish

i’m 44 years old and have been on fin for about 2 years and haven’t really noticed much thinning, but i recently in the last 6 months lost about 35 pounds on this fitness journey and now of a sudden i seem to be thinning much more rapidly. or maybe i just didn’t notice until recently. it almost feels like it was just overnight that it was this thin. my hair has always been very fine, so it just seems to be a bad combo.

about a month ago i added twice daily minox, daily vitamins ie biotin and some others. i’m also rotating 2% ketoconazole shampoo and a few other anti thinning shampoos. i’m also 3 weeks into derma stamping once a week.

two weeks ago switched to dut, but am slowly introducing it by taking 3 times a week and continuing the fin the other days.

any suggestions? any tips? i can’t think of anything else.

how do we feel about prp treatment? i have savings and if it meant getting my hair back id spend the money.


Given your sudden weight loss, telogen effluvium might be playing a role, alongside your ongoing battle with AGA. With your regimen now including daily min, biotin, and dut for a couple of weeks, it might just take some time for things to stabilize. PRP doesn’t do much for most people. Stay on course with the treatments and keep microneedling; it could aid min absorption. Check out the tressless guides for more insights.
