Title: Hair loss or growth on Livial, [Tibilone]
Post by: jaycee on June 08, 2020, 01:10:58 PM

Has anyone had any difference in their hair, on Livial, loss or growth
I am still trying to find out whether my hair loss is caused by taking it,my daughters hair thickened on it, so maybe its not that with me, but i know everyone is different
I would just like others views on it

jaycee,
I was on it for around 18m and had no noticeable change in hair growth or hair loss.  My hair is naturally fair & fine and even after pregnancy I didn't experience the hair loss lots of women have.
HTH,
S

Thank you Sooze, i have never experience hairloss after pregnancy either, at least not that i noticed,
It had seemed to stop shedding, but recently started again, none in the plughole, but when i comb my hair it is coming out a lot
Really fed up now, one Dr said livial is androgenic, stop the livial,
Dermatologist says it's not androgenic, and would grow back, still waiting  and don't stop the livial
I see everyday ads for hair loss, and all mention DHT which apparently testosterone changes into on your head, but it can't work for everyone,
I reallt think these ads are giving people false hope and cost a fortune
Derm says don't waste money on them they don't work, only Minoxidil works
I would try that, but i believe some falls out before it starts growing again
