Hi guys

Basically i finished my 6 months accutane course about 3 months ago and I've got to say that the results are impressive

Although one thing that has been bugging me for quite a while is that before accutane my hair was extremely volumous and heavy, however that is not the case now :( . My hair now is extremely thin and im really worried. I would appreciate if someone would tell me what can be done for this and have me regain all my hair :)

Thankyou!

I am going through the same thing, only I am only two months into my cycle.

I asked my derm about it and she explained that accutane can mess with hormones that control the body's natural shedding process and accelerate it (at least from what I understood). She said that if it gets worse, they can use men's rogane (even though I am a female...). Not necessarily to force the hair to grow everywhere, but instead to stop the shedding cycle and restart the growth cycle.

I hope that helps a bit.
