Dr. Rassman,
Thank you for your reponse to my inquiry regarding significant hair loss after discontinuing Propoecia. I do believe that Finasteride has altered my hormonal balance and caused a dramatic acceleration of hair loss.
I am going to get some blood work done, what should I test for?
I am also seriously considering coming to see you in Los Angeles. How long would it take for me to get an appointment?
I appreciate your kind understanding of the desperation I feel.
Thank you for keeping my name confidential on the website.
Before coming to Los Angeles, see your doctor to rule out the various medical conditions that cause hair loss, including thyroid disease. He should know the differential diagnosis. I cannot comment on the acceleration of the hair loss with Propecia as that has not been my experience, so a medical work up is critical before you make the long journey to California.
