I'm day 10 of 2nd EC not doing too badly with side effects following similar pattern to last time fatigue just starting to recede. Currently have very little hair left but scalp is so sore, any tips of how I might soothe it?
I'm 7 days after fec and still tired. I use Johnson baby oil on my head. I lost all my hair after first cycle of fec. My scalp is still a bit sore but I wash it at night and put oil on it while it's still damp them put my cotton sleep cap on. X
I'd suggest silk pillows, they make the friction on your head a lot less. I shaved after round 2 of EC and wore cap to bad but often it worked its way off.
Hi Autumn49, its really sore isn't it? I wasnt expecting it. I use Aveeno shampoo which is really gentle and other people have mentioned aloe vera gel helped. Hugs xxx
i too am on EC had my 3rd and final session ten days ago....on the whole my hair seemed to have settled down compared to the thousands of little needles savaging my scalp in the early rounds...
I have found around the 10-14 days post session is when the hair is either going to fall out again or relax a grow. Which I think irritates the follicle...what did was put Nivea on my head, and wear a beanie hat...i even wear a hat at night..
as a man I also found the odd facial hair, that regrows can feel like shards of glass, so if end of this feeling by shaving off ASAP..
