I noticed hair loss after the birth of my first child, 4 years ago. Since then I had another child, 18 months ago and noticed even more hair loss. I was on a birth control pill that had a high estrogen. My Gyno told me that this would cause hair loss. I went to a dermatologist and he told me I had Ludwig stage 2 and my only treatment is Rogaine. I used it for two days and my head itched so bad I stopped using it! Has anyone else been diagnosed with this and if so what did you do. Has your hair grown back. I am only 28 and don't want to be on Rogaine for the rest of my life. Any information would help. Replies:
