hair loss

Could you abnormal thyroid be that is a little on the high side? I had two friends with thyroid problems, one hypothyroid and one hyperthyroid. Both had problems with their hair thinning. The one with the hyperthyroid was not significantly under weight.

Good luck, I remember how stressful my hair thinning was.

hair stylist weighing in... sorry for the novel.

#1, it is strongly recommended that you go to a doctor. i literally got out my textbook, and it says: "In general, anyone who has unusual, excessive shedding should see a doctor." i understand your fears and it's your decision, but just know that it's highly advised.

#2, you need to determine whether the hair is actually breaking off or falling out, because those are two very different problems. if you run your fingers through your hair, do the hairs that fall have blunt ends on both ends, or does the part that came out of your scalp still have a little "nubbin" (technical term, haha) of follicle on it? some hairs with follicles are natural, but if the majority of them have follicles, that's hair loss.

some hair loss possibilities:
alopecia areata - an autoimmune skin disease that affects people with no obvious skin disorder or serious disease. reversable.

telogen effluvium - can be caused by childbirth, shock, drug intake, fever, crash diets, birth-control pills, low protein intake. reversable.

traction alopecia - caused by pulling or twisting, like wearing tight ponytails for many years. the times that i have seen this it's been at the hairline from the hair being pulled back so tightly. how tight is your helmet?....seriously.

androgenetic alopecia is genetic hair loss which causes overall thinning. for this one, your hair follicles are actually shrinking, causing each hair to become thinner and thinner until nothing is produced. i've never done this but it's recommended that you can hold a white index card behind your hair at the scalp to see more clearly, and you should actually see the "miniaturized" (that actually IS the technical term!) hairs. do your parents or other relatives have hair loss?

i hope that's helpful!

I have thinning caused by PCOS. It's a hormonal issue that can be identified with a hormone screen by your doctor. It's treatable, though the hair loss is difficult if not impossible to reverse - I'm OK with just making it not get worse, personally....

I also have PCOS and have been losing my hair for nearly 10 years. Unfortunately, I've lost most of the hair on the crown of my head, looks very much like male pattern baldness. What looks DAMN SEXY on a man, I don't think I'm going to pull off well if I continue to lose my hair. Many of my photos looks like I'm bald on top. Good luck

Hair fall is the last worst things in life. I hate to lose my hair. I have been gone through this and I know the feeling very well. Unlike man, saving head is not an appropriate solution for women. Without hair or thin hair you look ugly and it's going on self-esteem. There will be the time when you went crazy when you see notings goes well. In the market, you will see thousands of hair products who are promising to reverse hair fall in 30 days or less time. But the maximum is fraud or scam. You have to fioud the real one that really works. as I have found one for me. From then to now I have used this product on regular basis. It helps me to restore my hair. I have done cryziest things to get beck my hair. When all things failed to save me from my severe hair loss problem then this products has comes with the light of hopes. I'm talking about amplixin hair support produts. Its an amazing product for your hair health. It works for men and women both. I'm suggesting you consult with a doc first. Then follow proper instruction and besides use this product. It worth trying. If you interested to know more you can visit their website. https://amplixin.com/

I want to get rid of hair loss, I have heard people saying that long biking makes your hair root weak and as a result, hair fall happens. How true is this?
