ugly + PCOS + thinning hair. fucking genetic lottery Anonymous 22986

Being born ugly was already bad enough but now my hair is thinning too. I have PCOS so i guess the hair loss isnt exactly surprising but its still fucking brutal when youre already ugly
every shower I end up with loose strands all over my hands and then I’m finding hair everywhere after. I’ve started keeping it in a bun with a hair band most of the time because I dont even wanna look at it.
I bought rogaine at Walgreens and started reading about it, which somehow just made me feel worse because apparently if it gets bad enough a hair transplant is basically the only way to fix the appearance and thats obviously not something i can afford
men can go bald and just buzz it off and nobody cares but as a woman thinning hair feels like a fucking death sentence
i dont look halfway human with short hair so i cant even hide it that way

I know you don't want to hear this but I think you should embrace it. It's not uncommon these days for women to shave their hair off. You could always wear a wig if you wanted to look normal.

If you have the confidence to learn how to style wigs, I'd look into that. You don't need to remove all of your natural hair if it's thin enough to tie down and hide. Look into your magnesium and iron levels. Manage insulin resistance. I don't know if this is relevant to your particular issue but it's worth a try, I wish you the best ♥︎

try and get an oral minoxidil script instead of applying it topically. i’m so sorry you’re going through this:( i’m suffering from traction alopecia right now and it is seriously killing my self esteem

>a hair transplant is not something that I can afford
The good thing is that you know what is coming so you can start saving for something like that when the time comes. Not ideal at all but baldness is that thing not even moids have been able to solve for themselves.

>born ugly

seeing it this way does not help you. humans have the ability to change themselves in astonishing ways if they know how and can overcome the gravity of their habits. you can not choose your starting point in life but you can choose which direction to go; if you are piloting your plane and not being on autopilot that is. if you keep letting yourself be unconsciously seduced into doing things that aren't in your best interest just because they satisfy some unimportant craving in the moment, then nothing will change and the autopilot will fly you towards being sick and ugly.

you can choose to fly the airplane of your life towards beauty and health and i hope you do and i wish you luck in case you decide to.
