Dose titration periods During titration, when you are gradually increasing your dose to manage side effects and find the optimal level, avoid prefilling large batches
The 28-day mark is not a chemical cliff, and a vial punctured twice with good technique is not meaningfully different on day 30 than on day 27
Micronutrient supplementation may be beneficial, though ideally guided by laboratory assessment rather than empiric supplementation
Do: Use a gentle, sulfate-free shampoo Condition every wash (hydrated hair is less prone to breakage) Pat dry gently rather than rubbing vigorously Use a wide-tooth comb, never a fine-tooth comb on wet hair Sleep on a silk or satin pillowcase (reduces friction) Keep up regular washing (skipping washes does not save hair, it just saves the fallen hairs for one dramatic shower) Do not: Use tight hairstyles (ponytails, braids, buns) that create traction Apply heat styling tools frequently Use harsh chemical treatments (bleaching, perming, relaxing) Pull or tug at shedding hair (it will fall when ready) Obsessively count fallen hairs (it amplifies stress, which worsens shedding) Strategy 6: stress management (seriously) This strategy sounds soft compared to lab work and supplementation, but the cortisol-hair-loss connection is well-documented
