I am not pursuing any treatment. I will occasionally use the Olux when some itchiness flares up, but that's it. I flatly refused the shots and transplant option when the Derm first suggested it. Too much money and too much pain. I am just darned glad the Olux worked for me since I hear that for some folks it doesn't help at all. And after some initial issues, I've come to terms with a large portion of my hair being gone and not coming back.
The remainder is still growing at a decent rate even though the thinning area seems to be widening. I have about 3 or 4 spots that are totally smooth, but the tight curl of my hair texture disguises it a bit. Unless **chuckle**, it gets a too long so my fro looks like it has a dent down the middle. Bwahahaaaa.

Hello new friend!
The remainder is still growing at a decent rate even though the thinning area seems to be widening. I have about 3 or 4 spots that are totally smooth, but the tight curl of my hair texture disguises it a bit. Unless **chuckle**, it gets a too long so my fro looks like it has a dent down the middle. Bwahahaaaa.
Hope I answered your question. :) TTYL
How are you today?
