S3 Ep 1 - Hairs to you, Dr Donovan

Dermalogues is back for Season 3! One of Canada's leading dermatologists and hair experts, Dr Jeff Donovan, joins Dr Kerri Purdy for a fun, fascinating and in-depth conversation about hair as we kick off our third season. The topics they dive into include: female androgenetic alopecia, why Dr Donovan isn't a fan of hair pull tests, what is a normal amount of daily hair loss, what to do when patients bring in bags of hair, what to look for when using a dermatoscope, prescribing minoxidil, spironolactone, finasteride, reliability of patient photos, how to time a hair transplant in men and women and much more. Two derm Residents sent in questions for this episode. Many thanks to Dr Danny Mansour from the University of British Columbia and Dr Anastasiya Muntyanu from McGill University. Dr. Jeff Donovan specializes in the diagnosis and management of common, uncommon and rare reasons for hair loss at his practice, Donovan Medical, in Whistler, BC and Vancouver. He is also the President of the Canadian Hair Loss Foundation, and a faculty member in the Dermatology department at the University of British Columbia. Dermalogues is made possible by a grant from AbbVie, via the CDA Corporate Supporter Program. Dermalogues is produced by David McGuffin of Explore Podcast Productions in Ottawa. Our theme music is by Lee Rosevere.
