My Scalp BIOPSY results...what do they mean? (Breast Implants & Hair Loss)

posted by lynnwood42, 29.01.2007, 12:08

Here are the results of my scalp biopsy results:

--non-scarring alopecia and mild androgenetic alopecia is favored although this could be normal for some individuals,
--telogen effluvium cannot be completely excluded,
--focal chronic perifolliculitis is present.

Does anyone know what all that means? The only thing the dermatologist told me about the results is that they really didn't show much and that rogaine was her only suggestion. The mens version twice per day over my whole head. HELP!! I need help to understand the biopsy results more!
