A female user is experiencing hairloss from the root and dead ends, likely due to post-partum effects, ankylosing spondylitis, and low iron. She seeks advice on improving hair health before going fully blonde.
Hairloss in moms can be caused by hormonal changes, stress, genetics, and nutritional deficiencies. Solutions include hair toppers, Minoxidil, PRP therapy, and a healthy diet with supplements.
High prolactin levels can cause hairloss, and finasteride may increase prolactin. Cabergoline or Vitamin B6 might lower prolactin, but combining them with finasteride requires caution.
Finasteride users may have an increased risk of depression, anxiety, and suicidal thoughts, though some attribute these issues to hairloss itself. The link between finasteride and mental health effects is debated, with varying user experiences.
A 28-year-old woman with genetic hairloss has tried various treatments, including oral minoxidil, finasteride, dutasteride, vitamins, ketoconazole shampoo, exosome needling, and hair extensions. She plans to pause treatments for pregnancy and is concerned about potential hairloss during that time.
