Regular Member willhair Posted June 8, 2009 Regular Member Share Posted June 8, 2009 Dear all, I had a hair transplantation of 2000 grafts 8 months ago and have been on propecia for 4.5 months. My problem is, after I started propecia I experienced a lot of shedding and the shedding has not stopped yet. At the moment when I comb my hair I see a lot of but really a lot of thin hairs falling out with white bulbs. The shedding I have, results in a situation that I cannot judge the success of my HT. My questions are: 1- Do those thin white bulbed falling hairs show progress of MPB or should I expect that it is because of propecia and new fairs will replace soon. 2-Is there a way to distinguish between telogen efflivium and androgenic alopecia by looking at the hairs falling out. Additionally, does the white bulb indicate something? 3-If it is because of peopecia, I'd like to ask if someone on this site has ever experienced 5 months or longer shedding because of propecia and how did it turn out 4-If it is because of male pattern baldness why only thin hairs are mostly shedding not the others 5-If new hairs start to grow do they grow as thick hairs or thin hairs which get thicker in time Thank you for your time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
