Falling and thinning of hair (androgenetic alopecia) in women?

Question

My sister 27 yrs old has been experiencing thinning of hair and hair loss since 3-4 yrs . (possibly triggered off by stress and dieting).Her test results of hormones ,blood , sugar etc r normal . Dermotologists prescribed Minoxidil /Mintop .This was of little help and the hair growth is reversible once the medicine is stopped . Is there any cure for this condition

Answer 1

Same thing happened to me. I lost so much! I filled a plastic cup in two days to show my doctor. :(((((

But I had an eating disorder. Vomiting triggered the hair loss and after I kicked vomiting because my hair meant more to me it still kept falling out! :( It has been falling out now going on the 3rd year. I had the SAME TEST done and all was fine. I don't know what to think of it. Medication didn't help nor did Rogaine with regrowth.

I use combs now and extra conditioner so I don't pull out the weak roots of regrowth. I live in the country and started wondering if it could be the hard water too.

it sucks. my heart goes out to your sister. it really does. im 28 so close in age.

I use nioxin cleanser for fine hair. early stages of thinning and that makes a bit of difference with strengthening it. it's spendy but I use it. the phase 1.

Eating almonds,regular massage might be some home remedies.
Is she in some kind of depression or over-stress?That might be the reason for hair loss.

Answer 5

Sounds like your sister is suffering from androgenetic alopecia. Even though there are plenty of treatments such as minoxidil, I do not think there is a cure.
