You might ask your dr. If it’s not good to color our hair not sure about Rogaine.

Yep he already said no to the color and I don’t mind going naturally gray but geez the fall out 🙄

I took Urso 2 weeks & noticed immediately I was losing more hair than normal when I shampood. Once off of it I didn’t notice the hair. I’m natural but that’s ok😊

Between medications and my 4 auto immune diseases. I am constantly battling hair loss. My son's fiance is a Salon owner she recommended me using Monat I've only been using it for a few weeks and I've already noticed a big difference you have to buy it online. monatglobal.com she colors my hair with a Redken product that is ammonia free that my Dr approved. She recommends Naturtint if you are going to use a box color. You can find it any health food store.

I use Intense Repair shampo, Revitalize Conditioner & Intense Repair Treatment. I'm trying to get a hold of her to get her account information so you can get a discount & not pay full price.

I think rogaine has lots of chemicals, your Dr would probably say no. But who knows doctors say whatever they want for no rhyme or reason.

Can I check if we have pcb we're not meant to colour our hair, I'm gonna guess no bleach either? but I don't get why

I had hair loss though was just me but its probably got worse since usro,

Hi I used regain for hair loss years ago but I can’t honestly say it made any difference I also used the men’s strength one as stronger, recommended by specialist at hospital. I didn’t have to worry about hormones as gone through all that. Still made no difference it’s expensive and you have to use it regularly and they say 3 months before you notice anything. But not that I noticed.

I've used it with no problems, it was cleared by my consultant. I also colour my hair again, no problems and my levels are all good.

Hi

I coloured my hair for 20 years with PBC with no ill effects and consultant didnt say not to but now that I have cirhossis I don’t dye it but luckily I am in my sixties and have let it go grey..it has also gone white in convenient streaks..very happy with It! I thought it was thinner with Urso and wanted advice but the consultant just said..... Well its your hair or your liver, you choose.... well obviously I chose my liver and am on Urso! I find that now hair is cut short too it is a lot thicker looking. Also dry shampoo seems to bulk it out.

Hope you get a solution to your hair. All the best,
