I have first signs of regrowth on my patches after 6 months. I feel its a combination of healthier diet (more fruit and veg, no fizzy drinks, reduced alcohol intake, reduced processed foods), reduced stressed, increase in relaxing activities and the odd rub on my scalp with castor oil. Ive also been taking flax seed oil capsules 3 times/day and a hormone balancing supplement called IntreFem. Who knows what if any of the above has helped but Im gonna stick to it!
