I've lost the most hair from my chest, armpits, and pubic areas. In addition, the hair on my head has been going white much more rapidly than before. Not grey, white. I'm not sure what color it will be by the time this is over." - Matt ______________________________________________________________________ What I've Felt : "My hair just continues to get thinner and thinner. I do see some stray babies here and there. Nothing that looks promising though. This really has done a job of my self esteem and I am trying to learn to love and accept myself as I am. Body hair is slow to grow too." - Sandy's six month update _____________________________________________________________________ What I've Felt : "Hair loss – Telefuvium hair loss. Started almost 90 days exactly after I stopped the K. It's caused by a shock to the system. The hair loss lasted about two months, but it's coming back thicker than ever now!"
