I was diagnosed with ADA a few years ago and I’ve been on Spironolactone for like over ten years due to acne and now hair loss. I’m at 100mg. I went to the derm in Jan due to my hair loss getting worse. She prescribed 2.5 mg of finasteride, kept me on the spiro, and gave me a topical minoxidil (it’s a mixture they use w other ingredients in it but a stronger percentage than what I was using before Jan). I’ve been seeing growth along my hairline, especially on my sides which were thinning HOWEVER my part has gotten way worse. I used to be able to pull my hair back with no issues and now my part is always visible no matter how much I back comb or comb side to side. Is this normal? I know there’s a shedding phase and I have seen my shedding turn from shorter hairs to my actual length hairs but why is my part getting worse and the other areas on my head improving??? It’s driving me crazy because I can even wash my hair, style, and if I try to pull it back you’ll see my scalp. I’m not even seeing any baby hairs at all around my part and I figured by now from Jan I should see something instead of backsliding!   submitted by   /u/Maleficent-Friend939 [link]   [comments]
