After my estrogen levels go back to normal will my hair go back to normal.

My hair is normally thick its letro that has made it thin out quite a bit. I was on 1.25mg ED now i have dropped to a quarter a day then will slowly drop it to a quarter E2D then taper off with a few weeks of nolva :)

Anyone experienced this? my mate did but he said once he got off it, his hair slowly returned to normal....

If you're on cycle it's more likely the steroids...

If you're not on cycle... why are you taking letro? And at such a large dose?

This thread reminds me, I'm going back into my research regarding hair loss prevention and mitigation - I once had a compiled list and synergy of supplements and hair products I put together after corresponding with a few leading experts and combing (haha pun) all the threads across the internet dealing with the subject.

I used Dutasteride for around half a year, and it was alright - but I don't like totally eradicating myself of DHT altogether, more trying to target the scalp location DHT issues.

Anyway, sorry to hijack your thread but this is an issue many/all users face at some point in their athletic ambitions, so I'm sure it will be helpful. Best of luck.

I can't answer this compound specific question, but I can say my hair slowly thickened to a noticeable degree around 3 months after cessation of my last cycle. I am however, on the generic version of Rogaine, which is MUCH less than name-brand at Wal Mart, and even LESS at Sam's Club :)

Massage your scalp with Castor Oil for an hour before you get a shower. Supposed to regrow hair quite well.

Never heard of this, just google'd and it looks like it takes a few months to begin working but it also regains hair thickness and growth. An hour every day though is steep...

Did you get rid of your gyno?
Pretty much! not ALL of it is gone but it is barely noticible

Im happy with the results :)

Just not happy with the hair thinnning!!

Jus spoke to my mates doc in regards 2 the hair loss n he confirmed that once my estrogen levels go back to normal my hair should return back to it's normal state before the treatment whatever that may be. He said it can also affect my test/estrogen balance so I need to wait until my levels return. I suppose your joints will get better or your sex drive will return to normal after stopping Letro...

I have no idea who to believe!!!

If the doctor said so, probably.

Just make sure you TAPER OFF with letro to prevent any strong rebounding.

Joints will go back to normal and so will libido once normal T/E ratios are established for you.

Yeah, i think thats we was getting at as well. Once al the levels are back to normal your body will go back to normal, hair, skin, libido and everything else.

Now i have been on 1.25mg ED. I have gone down to a quarter ED for a week then going to go a quarter E2D for another week, then maybe go a quarter E3D then come off. Then 2 weeks of Nolva...What you guys reckon?

Yea harsh lesson, the fact that you got gyno twice from H-drol maybe suggest to keep natural.

Ok. that is a very blunt comment.

I dont know, I am just going off what my mates dad said (Doctor). Letro can cause hair thinning but it is not a permanent side effect!

I didnt play with fire, i took the neccessary steps to get rid of my gyno! before surgery!
