Brandon Posted December 14, 2004 Share Posted December 14, 2004 Hello, I had a translant about 5 months ago (4,621 grafts in all). I would estimate that I lost about 1/3 to half of the follicles in the first month after the surgery. Then the remaining hair started growing. All was going well and I was very impressed with the results. But in the past few weeks, I've noticed that the hair has been falling out. If I run my fingers through it, I've noticed that a significant amount will fall out. And I notice that my hair is definitely less dense now than it was just a month ago. Is it normal to lose transplanted follicles this long after my procedure? And if so, will it grow back? I am using proscar and monoxodyl daily. I don't want to freak out, but this doesn't seem right to me. Many thanks for any answers you can provide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
