brazilianboy Posted August 19, 2018 Report Share Posted August 19, 2018 One month ago I found out I had syphilis and took the 3 weekly injections (2.4 MU penincillin per week). Hair loss was one of the first symptoms I had before the diagnosis. My last injection was 18 days ago and I'm much better now, all the other symtoms are gone, but I'm still losing hair and it's very patchy. Has any of you guys experienced that? And if so, how long did it take for the hair to grow back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
workmyhole Posted August 19, 2018 Report Share Posted August 19, 2018 I had it about eight years ago, it took a few months for my hair to grow back. In the mean time I kept it really short, a step above a buzz cut, and no one noticed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But even so, it's possible to notice that there's less hair in some areas of the scalp :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may try Rogaine next month. The only reason I haven't tried it yet it's because I heard that during the first month of use, it's very common to lose even more hair before it starts growing. So I want to see If it gets better on its own before using anything. But thanks for the help! Edited August 19, 2018 by brazilianboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
