1765695 tn?1313669583 There are vitamins specially formulated to emphasize the ones most beneficial for hair. The best is probably Ultra Hair by Nature's Plus, but there are several. Most are for hair, skin and nails combined. As for texture, rosemary oil can be very beneficial. Aubrey makes a good one. Shea and cocoa butters are also beneficial, but gooey! A chinese herb called Fo Ti, or Shen Min, is good for hair, but mostly for thinning hair.
Avatar m tn Niacin is important for the conversion of carbohydrates, protein and fat into energy! Adults need about 16 milligrams a day. Almonds, Niacin Content: 1 oz, 1 mg Daily Value: 6%. Eat them right before you go the gym. Their high in L-arginine that can actually boost your carb and fat burn during your workout. Navy Beans, Niacin: 1/2 cup, 1.5 mg Daily Value: 9%. They contain resistant starch, a type of fiber that boosts calorie burn by up to 23%.
Avatar m tn -0 It was not a good sight. But I recovered and the hair did grow back for me. I have read to stay out of the sun. The sun weakens it even more while you are trying to recover. Try not to blow dry and air dry instead. Take a health supplement with biotin and niacin in it. Choose a shampoo with botanicals and essential oils in it. Maybe this article will help as well. https://www.dermatologytimes.
Avatar m tn For a good multi-vitamin, I consider the minimum to be at least 25 milligrams of each of the main Bs (B-1, B-2, B-6, e.g.). I also consider more to be better as far as the water-soluble vitamins go (the Bs, vitamin C, and some others are water-soluble, while A, D, E, and K are fat soluble). 'Bear in mind that the RDI (recommended daily intake), DV (daily value), or whatever, is calculated to be the dose that keeps you from overtly DYING of a nutrient deficiency.
1063764 tn?1272821064 I was watching a documentary and heard about a case where a woman was put on niacin supplements for depression. She was taking very large dosages, but it completely pulled her out of her depression. So far fluoxetine has helped me, but I think in time I will need a larger dosage. I would really rather not do that, so my question is: is it safe to take niacin supplements of 100 mg daily plus an extra multivitamin with 20mg. I don't want to end up taking too many vitamins.
Avatar f tn It's normal for these things to start happening following menopause due to testosterone. You can get help with this, however, by visiting a doctor and being prescribed certain hormones.

Avatar m tn I lost a probably about 45% but luckily it thinned all over. the only part I had to hide was a receding hair line in the front (Like my dad has) So I didn't put my hair up and just combed long hair over for a while. I have been done with treatment for a couple months now..and my hair, (while still thinned out) is a completely different texture then it was on treatment. I noticed within a few weeks after tx the shine was back and it did not look so dead anymore.
Avatar f tn With my first and second pregnancy my hair grew long and thick on my head. This pregnancy my hair is comings out everytime I wash it. The plug is full of my hair. Luckily for now you wouldn't notice because I have so much. It does appear to be growing faster tho.

9263335 tn?1403463032 My hair was damaged bad before pregnancy and I heard your hair does grow faster so I cut it to a little above my shoulders at like around 4 months im now 9 months and it has grown to the middle of my back and feels so healthy and thick but I also stopped using heat on it as much and using heat protective stuff when I do
Avatar f tn Really? I thought I was weird for growing hair on my stomach lol my boyfriend always makes fun of me.
Avatar f tn Has anyone else had hair growth on their belly? Ever since I got pregnant my belly is super duper hairy, like grossly hairy. And thick too. I don't want to shave or wax cause I don't want it to come back even thicker but I'm starting to get self conscience cause its really gross! Will it go away?
1135275 tn?1586565652 Niacin is toxic in too high a dose. Niacinamide isn't, and so that's usually used for mental health purposes, but it doesn't yield a lot of niacin. Niacin will also give you a hot flush on your skin, unless you buy a non-flush niacin, which is usually, again, niacinamide. Niacin is usually used for the heart.
Avatar f tn My arm hair and leg hair seems to grow back super fast it's annoying. Anyone feel me on this ?
Avatar f tn Didn't think that your hair was supposed to grow faster I just thought that you didn't lose as Much hair due to it shedding
Avatar f tn I have hair growing everywhere its so nasty I got more hair on my legs than even who ha needs shaving every other week now I got hair on my boobs this ***** *** why on my boobs I'm such a freak belly kinda hair I'm so embarrassed
7136384 tn?1390142888 s because of your prenatal vitamins. They help hair and nail growth. And the idea about it being a boy because you have a lot of extra hair, could be true. Before I got pregnant I just had peach fuzz on my tummy and now it looks darker and longer, and I'm having a boy. But yet again, I shave my arm pits and legs a lot more than usual. Also your pubic hair will probably begin to grow so much you can't keep up with it.
