Title: Hair shedding after stopping Testo
Post by: Evie606 on June 10, 2025, 05:36:56 PM

Hi All,

I’ve been off Testosterone for 6 weeks now and the hair shedding has started, luckily I’d been warned about this but was wondering how long it lasted for anyone that’s been through it.

On the plus side, my mood is much better, I’m sleeping through the night and the acne has virtually disappeared!  :)

Is it shedding in handfuls or more than 'normal'?

Not quite handfuls but way more than normal. It’s very noticeable especially after brushing & washing, as I say I’m not too concerned as I was told this would happen 4-6 weeks after stopping so not unexpected.

Just interested if anyone else had a timeline for how long it lasts.
Thanks
