Question Sore scalp usually = Hair loss?

When you experience a sore scalp, does this usually mean more hair loss for you? My scalp is sore today, and I think it usually means heavy loss.

Anyone else experience this?

Yes unfortunately for 99% of people a sore and sensitive scalp means hairloss.

If you go to a forum called HERALOPECIA most girls/women on that sight experciece a sore scalp during and before hairloss.

Some say has the DHT - free Testosterone works to miniturize the follicles (thats how men and women lose hair, the follicles just get smaller), the scalp doesn't need as many blood vessells or capilleries to feed the follicle as its smaller so that soreness is the blood vessles dying.

It makes sense to me. When I was losing on the crown of head... it was sore and sensiteve - the hair there was falling and now its much thinner.

The same way men thin - if you watch closely at a man with thinning hair... he still has a lot of the follices but the hairs a tiny and wispy fine.. making him apppear thin and those men that are actually "shiny bald" that is where the follices have finally died. This doesnt really happen juch in women though with AGA (androgenetic alopecia). Except if the have Alopecial Areat or universalis - but that is an auto immune problme and not much to do with testosterone and DHT.

Nizoral treatment - 2% leav on for a few minutes , helps to reduce imflammation and helps to remove the DHT from the area.

Most people men and women who know about hair loss use Nizoral ever 2nd or 3rd wash. Its all over the hairloss sites.

Along with Rogaine its one of the top 3 treatments

Nizoral, Rogaine and things like Spiro, flutamind and propecia.
