Hello All, I am venturing into new territory. It just dawned on me that a good experiment would be to try a medical grade CBD oil tincture on my hairline and see if it affects the redness. CBD is the nonpsychoactive part of marijuana that is being…Continue

Hello all - I know that you don't log on daily but it would be REALLY helpful if we all knew your location - I'm UK. I hope you all don't mind if each time we all log on - we ask folk to go into their profile and say UK US whatever - for me now there are so many of us - it helps to identify and remember in a way - I hope that's OK. Many of us did that a short while ago but there are many new people now. Thanks so much X
Jules, what Dr Harries said makes sense to me. I think a lot of us have had considerable hairloss on the sides with no visible sign of inflammation and many signs of inflammation on top without much hairloss. I've never understood that. I also don't understand the connection between autoimmune and inflammation. Can one have the former without the latter?
Jules- thanks for the encouraging words. If the injections aren't helping i'm going to ask my dermatologist if i should stop them. Last year i used womens minoxidil for 4 months and I should have kept it up. I tried Nioxin last year and it caused a rash on my face and scalp. I use Free & Clear shampoo and conditioner. Very mild.
