  1. I'm a woman... I would also recommend having your thyroid tested too. In 1994, I had a tubal pregnancy & my hair thinned a little & by 1996, I was so concerned that I went to the doctor & found out my thyroid was very low. Pregnancy (as well as other hormonal changes) can affect your thyroid function. After being on thyroid replacement for two years, my hair didn't get grow back but did not get any thinner. Then, I had a few surgeries in a short time & experienced more shock loss (which is why I ended up having HT eventually) But, I'd check my thyroid & iron levels to be on the safe side. If you catch it early, you may not lose as much hair.
  2. Rugger, have you had personal experience with Bosley SF? I don't have an opinion of them as of yet (I had a procedure with them six days ago so too soon to tell) but they charged me $5.50 per graft. Obviously, I won't know the results of MY procedure for a few months and yes, I've read about all the troubles they've had. I learned of the problems a few days ago, after the procedure was done & yes, I'm concerned. But, I also know Bosley has several offices across the country. I'm only concerned with the office that did my procedure in San Francisco. I'd like to hear more from actual patients that have been there.
  3. Seems I found this site a day or two too late & have been hearing horror stories about Bosley. (But not so sure it's coming from actual patients) I went in for consultation Monday & had the procedure that Wednesday (six days ago)in San Francisco. I'd like to hear more from actual patients that have had good or bad experiences & not just from people that have read of the problems others have had with Bosley. I'm not in denial that it may have been a mistake (only time will tell) & having read all the info the past few days, I am doing my best to avoid becoming depressed. Most of the people on here are men, I assume but I'm a girl & it's a lot tougher to deal with this problem. (socially it's more acceptable to go bald when it's a man vs. women)
