alopecia
"I have been using spironolactone for the past 6 month.  I take a total of 75mg per day (1-25mg in the morning and 2-25mg in the evening).  The first month or so, I did not see any changes.  By the second / third month, my hair was shedding; however, I also started to see hair growing in areas that I had none.  At the six month mark, the sprouts of hair I saw in the third/fourth month are approximately 1/2 inch long. Now, I do not see my scalp or that shiny scalp that you see on balding men.  Periodically, I have experienced scalp soreness.  Overall, I am very please with my hair growth."
