Title: Gear change
Post by: Padma on January 27, 2012, 01:06:36 PM
So... I had my oestrogen dose pretty much doubled around 3 weeks ago, and I'm noticing that my head hair growth has speeded up, but in the last few days my facial hair growth has slowed down (no complaints there). Has anyone else had this happen?

well it is known that Estrogen will speed up the growth rate of hair, as it makes the growth period longer. so it makes sense that estrogen would help contribute to hair regrowth.

Yep. Pretty much the same result for me. It's really cool when it happens to you though. It puts things in perspective and shows that there is some light at the end of the tunnel.
