    Female baldness.

    I am actually seriously stressing out as my hair is thinning serverly.
    Either side of my head at the temple area I have very dine hair and even baldness is some areas.

    The whole issues is making me feel I'll. I have made a dr appointment but it's getting me down massively.

    I'm a girl I'm not meant to go bald I getting married in Oct and will have to style my hair very precisely to not show it and I have to wear my hair down to hide it

    I can't afford those hair clinics as they are thousands of $$ I just can't lose my hair.

    Try Nioxin. I swear by it. I have posted about it a few times on here before. I was losing my hair quite dramatically when I was pregnant with DD2. I was recommended Nioxin so I bought it and in no time the hair loss reduced and my hair was thick & lovely again. My Mum used it when going through chemo and lost little to no hair; actually, she went and had her hair thinned by the hairdresser not long after finishing her chemo!
    It is rather expensive, but you do use such small amounts at a time. It is worth every single cent though.

    Good luck hun

    I was going say get the Nioxin products too. Female pattern baldness is something a lot of menopausal ladies deal with and they all rave about the nioxin stuff.

    I have masses of hair falling out at the moment - it's nearly back to what it was like when I was having chemo - but I've got lots of hair to start with so (apart from the embarrassment of feeling like I'm covered in hair all the time) not so much of a problem. If it was bothering me I would get the nioxin products.

    Definitely discuss it with your doctor, too, there could be some measures you can take on that front too.

    maybe ask your doctor about the effect, of going OFF Implanon. Like will it stop the hair thinning, and how long will it take before the Implanon is totally out of your system.

    (JIC it's the effect of Implanon, and something else causing the hair thinning).

    i hope it is all resolved by October, so you CAN have the hairstyle YOU want, for your big day.
