Avatar n tn Hi, Thank you both so much for your input. I read on the information page one gets from their prescriptions under "Side Affects", this one being Tamoxifen, and it read "hair thinning". I have read it quite a few times to be sure. I also pulled it up on a couple web sites and asked about hair and Tamoxifen, they said same, "hair thinning".. If this is the case, I needed to know if hair will come back to normal after treatment.
Avatar f tn Are you screaming? LOL, Anyways, be a bit more specific and people may be able to help you. Perhaps, what you are taking, how much and what you are trying to achieve.
Avatar f tn My period has been thinning for months. I did a hormonal imbalance test and it turns out my estrogen level is at 203. The doctor told me to eat healthy, no carbs and no sugar. They also say irregular period is due to stress. I did my research stress leads to high estrogen. So I am guessing that is what causing it to be high. But I also read eating foods with lots of vitamins (ex. Selenium. Melatonin, vitamin b, magnesium, etc.) helps reduce it.
Avatar f tn I'm almost 9wks and I was just wondering if anyone has experienced thinning hair. Mine seems to be a little thinner right in the front. And I'm not sure if this is normal or if it's caused by another reason.
Avatar n tn All my life I've been told that I have thick hair. I'm 21, Asian, male; for the past few years I've been noticing that I have thinner hair on the right side of my scalp. When I run my hand gently through my hair I notice that hair falls out WAY easier than the left side of my head. I'm not shedding clumps of hair, it's just my right side of the scalp sheds more in comparison to the left. Is this something normal? I've been stressing about this a lot!
Avatar m tn Well, yes, it would be some time before you actually notice that your hair is thinning. The low iron could be due to chronic blood loss due to piles. Post surgery, may be this was not corrected. Also, additional low vitamin D could be contributing to hair fall—and this may be a recent development or may be persisting. To improve the quality of hair, you’ll need to take iron and vitamin D supplements and improve your diet to include healthy meals. Take care!
Avatar f tn Are you on meds for PCOS? As I understand it, being on meds and losing weight, help to control all the symptoms of PCOS, including thinning hair. I myself haven't tried any products, but I wish you good luck with that, honey!
1300834 tn?1273123354 My hair has been thinning for about 4 years now. I honestly can't tell if its halted. I think it has at least slowed cause over the past year I haven't noticed in increase in the view of myscalp. I can't get any confirmation from my hairdresser or my doctors because my job had me moving around a lot and I've never had a consistent hair dresser or doctor for more than a few years.
Avatar n tn My hair has been thinning for the last five years I am 59 years ,through menopause ....whats up ? Maybe iron or iodine defecency?
Avatar m tn After around 6 months i could see my scalp.Taking a closer look it appeared red and the hair was thinning especially in the mid scalp region.I could also scratch some white crust with my nail.I had moderate itching.After some months i had extreme itching and a burning sensation like ants crawling and i could sense warmth.The scalp was really red so i went to dermatologist.I think he said i had pytiriasis.I was given ketekonazole and nizoral and after 1 month of treatment the symptoms were gone.
Avatar n tn Ive heard its common to lose hair AFTER pregnancy but has anyone had or is having hair loss while expecting??
Avatar m tn Thyroid hair loss would be all over - as in thinning throughout the hair for general thinning, while pattern baldness would be thinning in certain spots. At least, that is what happened to me.
Avatar f tn During pregnancy estrogen and progesterone levels need to be high to maintain the pregnancy. These two female hormones are produced by the ovaries until the placenta takes over. These hormones relax smooth muscles of the uterus and are necessary to allow the uterus to stretch to accommodate the developing pregnancy. Unfortunately this muscle relaxation is not confined to the uterus Disabled World: http://www.disabled-world.com/artman/publish/gerd-pregnancy.

721523 tn?1331581802 My sister who is dx with MS started losing her hair and she thought it was due to the meds she was taking but went to the doctor and got tested and they found she had to much testastarone in her system so they gave her some meds to level it out with the estrogen and she is doing well with no more hair loss. And she regrew the hair she lost. I hope you find out what is causing the hair loss.
Avatar n tn I am a 22 year old male, and I was diagnosed with both hypopituitarism and hypothyroidism about 3 1/2 years ago. My GH levels are normal with replacement therapy, but since I started taking these medications, my hair has been thinning. I am ready to accept that it's MPB, but it would be nice if it was just low thyroid and my hair could grow back more certainly. I have other symptoms of hypothyroidism like sluggishness, dry skin, and fatigue.
Avatar m tn She squeezed it and extracted it like a blackhead. Now he has a patch of thinning hair around the same area where he had the ingrown hair. His pediatrician told us she wasn't sure what it was but it might be a reaction to the ingrown hair (which might have been an infection) or alopecia areata and to wait a few months to see what happens.

Avatar f tn I have had significant diffuse hair thinning for 10yrs (I'm a 30yr old female!) to the point where I can almost count the hairs that are left. I have had an 'enlarged goiter' since I was a child, and my neck is quite large/round but no noticeable lump - I am very overweight so this probaly hides it a bit. I was diagnosed with female pattern baldness and poly-cystic ovarian syndrome because of the hairloss and weight gain/difficulty loosig weight....not a thyroid problem.
Avatar f tn As Dr. O says, do have yourself checked out by an opthalmologist. If he does not find blepharitis, there are other factors to consider. Since you have always had plenty of eyelashes, you might not be aware of any asymmetry in that department, but I'm very fair, with fine, light hair and I have noticed with the passage of time that one side of my head has slightly more hair than the other (weird, huh?), and interestingly the side with more hair has thicker eyelashes.
