Regular Member Tim Posted August 22, 2014 Regular Member Share Posted August 22, 2014 Hello, I had my HT Surgery by FUE technique 3 months back. I am in propecia and minoxidil but still I am shedding in clusters almost 200-250 strands in one wash and these are my non transplanted hair at mid scalp. And I am using propecia and minoxidil from last 1 and a half years. Reasons for such huge shedding?? And will these hair grow back?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Tim Posted August 23, 2014 Author Regular Member Share Posted August 23, 2014 How can it be shock loss after such long time. And yes I did contact my surgeon he said this is quite rare and cannot see any reasons for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with your surgeon because my best had a same problem and even still his surgeon can't figure it out why this happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member venkz111 Posted September 11, 2014 Regular Member Share Posted September 11, 2014 I am 4 weeks post op and obviously look terrible. But I have noticed reduction in the loss of existing hair. It was extensive during week 2 and week 3. Are you noticing this from your donor or recipient area?

Rahal Hair Transplant Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 You could be experiencing telogen effluvium / shock loss from your hair transplant or you could even be experiencing shedding from using Propecia and minoxidil if you’ve only just started using them in the last couple of months. That said, I recommend contacting your hair transplant surgeon and getting his or her input and reporting back to us.
