There are two types of loss, the one you see and the one you don't.  What you see in the comb, shower, sink, etc.....that's normal.  100 hairs a day is the norm.  (The follicle gets tired and goes into a dorman period. That hair will return in about 3-4 months).  

Go under a bright light and look at the hair in your corners, for example.  You'll notice some thick strands.  Nice robust hair.  You'll also notice finer strands and some so tiny you can't hardly see them.  We refer to this as miniaturization.  Eventually the hair withers away.  That's hair loss.  What you're experiencing is normal. 

I am surprised you are seeing significant results.  It typically takes 3-4 months for the hair to start coming in.  The hair will then start thickening up and it will take about 12-18 months to really mature.  Remember, it is the hair that came from the donor, (the best hair we all tend to have).  Let's wait the 12 months and re-post.  I would start taking photos so you can compare, otherwise you'll forget.

Some of the shedding could be some lingering shock loss and it’s not unusual to see one side recovering more than the other.
