I am covid positive while taking immuno suppressants

Do you think the trichogram would have picked up something abnormal? I developed mild peyronies which also is autoimmune related idk. Maybe you’re right about all of this but I try not to stress about this anymore. Life is too precious and I don’t want to waste Years. I already know there is no cure to any of this, so I really try to forget it

A trichogram is used to test for telogen effluvium which is why your derm did not find anything. So he concluded that you have androgentic alopecia, which is honestly annoying for me to hear tbh.

btw, if you have any other autoimmune issues than you very likely have some sort of alopecia areata, which evidently can be a very slow process when caused by accutane

Here is a good response of an analysis on accutane hairloss-


Accutane hairloss appears to present itself in three forms. TE, Diffuse AA and an acceleration of MPB.

For the latter i believe the process needs to of been established before hand for it to be accelerated. If you had no signs of MPB before you began accutane, then i do not believe what you are suffering from now is MPB.

That being said, diffuse AA can present itself exactly like MPB in some cases. In that the inflammation involved in AA can cause a pattern similar to MPB to emerge. What we need to remember about AA is that the follicles are not permanently damaged, assuming the process corrects itself at some point, the hairs all have potential to regrow to pretty much their original state. This is why many dermatologists tell you to use minoxidil when the shedding stops (or even if it doesn’t).

I actually believe TE is not seen very frequently in accutane hair loss. I am of the belief most cases are Diffuse AA, i have read of cases (and been informed by Tony Chu) that Diffuse AA induced by accutane can resolve from anything from two months, up to two years (without intervention). Even the short lived cases can involve body hair loss (most frequently the eyebrows/lashes, but also the pubic region).

It is obvious however that the hair loss can seemingly persist for life.

AA is an auto immune disorder. The real reason why the hairloss is initiated from accutane is unknown. I have several theories, ranging from a huge increase in staphylococcus aureus (Nearly every patient has this from accutane) these bacteria survive much better on dry skin than other bacteria. It has been proven that these bacteria secrete toxins which also stimulate the immune system at the hair follicle.

Another theory is that the hair itself is altered in its structure, causing the body to mistakenly attack the hair, the changes can be minuet (not at all noticeable by us) or in some cases a huge difference in the texture of hair, or even the colour, may be enough to trigger the initiation of the immune response.

The latter theory may explain why some people have the hair loss persist for a lifetime and it has been documented in chemotherapy patients (which accutane is a form of).

It could simply be down to the alterations in the immune system that have been extensively linked to accutane, the drug essentially unbalances the immune system and this obviously doesn’t resolve in everyone.

The typical treatments for AA can also be affective for diffuse AA, kenalog intra-dermal shots are probably the most affective, however you do have a greater chance of atrophy. Topical steroids are what i have been using for about 5 months now and they are helping to maintain my hair pretty well. I cannot predict how my hair loss will progress as i know of no one else who has continued with the steroids. This combined with minoxidil does lead to substantial amounts of regrowth, atleast for me and believe me my hair loss is pretty severe.

PUVA treatment is a viable option if you are willing to shave your hair very short, or if the hair loss has become very substantial.

The best advice i can offer is you leave the condition for about a year to see how it runs, if after this time period things aren’t improving then you can begin with the topical steroids to see how you respond. Couple this with minoxidil and you should maintain your hair for many years...


This is why I am using tofacitinib, to fight off inflammation

Reading this makes me fall into depression again bro, thanks for your replies but I’m just so done with all of this accutane bullshit. I try to make the best with what I have. I had a hot gf for 2 yrs right after developing accutane hair loss. So it’s possible for me. I’m not taking any drugs anymore Tbh. Appreciate your effort tho, I wish u all the best

Just know that accutane hairloss can revert itself entirely even if the hairs are minituarizing (which is caused by inflammation btw).

I'd recommend ordering Sebowash from in house pharmacy to stop more minituarization, it is a mild steroidal shampoo

yeahhhh bro.... I just went through your post history and you 100% have diffuse alopecia areata caused by accutane. Honestly you should consider 10mg tofacitinib a day, it will revert your hairloss in about 1 month

don't bother with fin or minox, they won't do shit in ur case

How will I get any autoimmune process diagnosed?

I ordered the meds without a prescription because no derm in their right mind would prescribe this drug for accutane hairloss. So I'm not sure how you would go about getting diagnosed.

Here is a link to site to purchase the medication if you ever want to embark on that path-

I’ve had a trichoscopy tbh, everything was fine.. I don’t know about this. I really don’t want to bother anymore with anything accutane related

ok but like I said a trichoscopy only looks for broken hairs and looks at the ratio of anagen/telogen hairs. But I respect how you don't want to bother with this med, it is kinda dangerous ngl. I'll let you know in a few weeks if my shedding has stopped.

I did some research and found that isotretinoin has been associated with thyroid autoimmunity. My thyroid functioning was just recently tested. Nothing abnormal Thankfully. Tbh I don’t have the worst hair for a 23 year old but it could be better definitely

Because you have to be genetically susceptible to it. Do you have any autoimmune issues in your family? I remember you said you have the penis disorder (jfl), so you were definently already predisposed to alopecia areata.

I have a bunch of immune issues in my family including psoriasis, asthma, allergies, and ibs. So it makes sense this would happen to me.

In short, the more sub-human you immune system is, the more likely you are to suffer from long lasting side effects

How bad was your hair shedding when it first occured? Also, if my tofacitinib medication works in the next few weeks, you should give it a try to bring back your hair

Not extremely bad but everytime i ran through my hair there were like 5 thick hairs strands falling out.. this lasted for 2-3 months and then it stopped. Apparently what I’m currently experiencing is normal (losing 1-3 hairs almost everytime i through my hair)

Idk man maybe the norwooding reaper is just raping you and it has nothing to do with accutane. For me, I know it's due to accutane becuase my hair changed texture and sheds 300+ hairs a day

My cousin is 2 yrs older than me and he has a pathetic combover. He had worse hair than me when he was my age and he never took accutane...

You're the lowest IQ user on this forum.

Taking accutane is a super stupid move when there are many safer, although less quick, acne treatment options available.

You wanted a quick fix instead of being patient about it and started losing your hair as a result of your stupidity. Don't even get me started on that moment you decided it was okay to tan while on that shit.

AND NOW THIS?

I wouldn't feel sad if you die I'm just being honest...

You don't deserve to spread your low iq genes.

No I don't feel the need to, anyways my shedding is slowing down already from the tofacitinib. It's not even a theory tbh, people just assume hairloss is due to mpb because they don't put in the time to research this shit

 

[RAITEIII]

How over is it? I have no taste or smell and feel super drowsy rn. I am taking 10mg of tofacitinib to stop my accutane hairloss and now I think I may have covid while my immune system is suppressed so I think it's game over for me. I can't even go to a hospital because I would not want to tell them I'm taking this medication FUARKK

I also think im covid positive jfl

You can always try a mild steroidal shampoo and over time it may thicken up your hair if my theory on diffuse AA is correct

No side effects with a mild one. Purchase "Sebowash", that's a good mild one ngl. But it is prescription only so you would have to use ebay or in-house pharmacy
