I used hair dye a few time to much in a one month period and i ran my hands through my hair and it came out in clumps. I was wondering if it would come back. Its been about a year since i last used hair dye and i dont see more hair loss or notice any more falling out. But its hard to notice if its getting better. I’ve been to so many doctors and they never tell me anything helpful. Is there anything i can do? I tried rogaine but didnt notice any difference with it. what should i do? help please. thank you

If you have been evaluated by many doctors and have come to a dead end, I doubt I can be much help either. Hair loss from hair dyes are a difficult problem, because it is difficult to treat or even understand why it happens. You may have induced genetic hair loss with the use of chemicals, but the chemicals themselves may have worked their way down the hair shafts into the growth center of the hair and killed or damaged it. As long as you have ruled out any medically related causes of hair loss, there are no proven treatments available (many products claim to reverse hair loss, but it is a buyer beware market and it targets the desperate consumers in a society obsessed with personal appearance and image). Minoxidil may help and is worth a try. With respect to hair loss after using a hair coloring dye, your hair should have grown back after a year.
