omega 3 and hair growth

I'm looking for a way to improve my skin, hair, and fingernail strength and growth. My skin is constantly dry and full of acne, my hair falls out in clumps, and my fingernails break extremely easily. I'm a type 1 Diabetic as well, if that means anything. I've tried using skin cleansers, lotions, acne creams, Biotin and Collagen vitamins, and even changing the temperature of my shower water. I eat quite a bit of protein (fish, chicken, and nuts) as well.

So I have a four year old pom, well we have her now about 7 weeks, we got her hair trimmed a like 6 weeks ago and it came back fine, we got her hair cut by a different groomer and she cut it tooo short for my likeing, now my questionis will itcome back like it used to be, the nice beutiful pom fur. I really hope so butI read alot about it and they said they won't, I want that nice pom coat back. right now its about 1 inch long.

So im not crazy after all.. I have told doctors and other people that fish and omega 3 bother my arrthymia. Noone believed me but I know what happens and it isnt pretty. I stay away from it. I did find an article once that said its good for the heart but people with arrythmias it can make them go into life threating ones.

I read where Omega 3 was good for your dog. Is it a different Omega 3 or is it the same that humans take?

I take one to fight babybrain. Omegas are stripped from myelin shealths during pregnancy and since they act as lubricant in the conduction of, essentially thoughts, our thought process is slowed. I didn't ask my doc about it yet but it does clear up fog in my brain.

you know, I haven't been taking the Omega 3 since I got pregnant - they make me nauseous. I just take my prenatals daily. I try to eat healthy(doesn't always happen) but i do try. I didnt take any Omega 3 with my other kids and their fine, so oh well.

I take my prenatal pill one times a day. And It has everything I need But No omega 3 an I heard to take it 2nd or 3rd trimester. Just don't remember what was said.

I took an Omega-3 supplement for the first time before going to bed last night, and when I woke up one eye was very swollen and puffy. The only allergies I have had are seasonal. Could I be allergic to the Omega-3 supplement?

I'm off to take some fish oil now! I have actually had a thinning hair issue since I was about 19, I cover it up well - most people wouldn't know 'cos I use some good products (Couvre from Spencer Forrest their website is under the name toppik I think but you can google your way to it) and it's just on the top of my head - thank God for hair spray. Now that I realize I have a thyroid problem I'm wondering if the hair problem is related.

humans can make all necessary fatty acids but omega-3 and omega-6. Usual contemporary diets are low in these nutrients and have been proposed as a cause of many conditions.

I am not sure of your question. Are you asking where omega 3 and omega 6 foods come from? Omegas 3 / 6 are polyunsaturated oils that help lower cholesterol and help prevent blood platelets from clotting blood vessel walls. The best source is fish especially mackerel, tuna, salmon, and lake trout. Fish should be eaten 2-3 times a week. Omega 3 are found in whole nuts, soy nuts / oil, and canola oil. Recommend 1-2 teaspoons of nuts daily. Hope this answered your question.

I go to the gym regularly and is supplementing with mucuna prurian , l-argnine, l-leucine, and indian ginseng for promotion of growth hormone. Is this safe. My dosage is safe - 1g of l-argnine, 1g of l-leucine and 1g of mucuna prurian before going to sleep accompanied with indian ginseng mixed in milk. Please tell me is this safe or not. I also take multi-vitamins, omega 3 , biotion for hair, calcium, and b-complex supplements. If taken all of these together can they react with each other.

It is important to maintain enough calorie intake and increase omega-3 fatty acids. Omega 3 not only enhances anabolic actions but it also assists in protecting against insulin resistance.

put them on holistic blue grain free chicken kibble and also adding salmon oil omega 3-6 in their food daily for one week now. What else could this be? I have bathed them in oatmeal shampoo as well. They are eating drinking and playing normally. Very happy pups.. But something is causing them to scratch their neck and lose hair, no redness to the area, no bumps, nothing but hair loss ..

Has anyone else hair grown since being pregnant?

See the growth cycle of hair is in two phases, anagen or growth phase and telogen or resting phase. During telogen, the resting hair remains in the follicle until it is pushed out by growth of a new anagen hair. In telogen effluvium, a large number of hair enter telogen at one time. If hair loss persists then you need to get this possibility evaluated from a trichologist.

I have 4 inch hair and 3 inch hair. I think it will about 18months before my hair is returned completely. The top grew in the slowest, but overall it gets better everytime my hairdresser gives me a cut.

It is true, for most women I think. In my first pregnancy my hair grew fast and got thicker. But this time my hair is so thin and even my eyebrows and eyelashes are sparse.

Hi, I had been taking Doxycycline for 4 months to treat Blepharitis (an eye condition). I noticed the same as you, itchy scalp and dramatic hair loss. Worst of all I suffered extreme oesophageal injury including and ulceration and became incredibly unwell. I stopped taking Doxycycline 1 week ago now and am really hoping that my hair will stop falling out in clumps now and that it will regrow.

I'm 33 weeks and was wondering how are you ladies getting rid of the hair that's growing on your private area sorry if tmi???

Yes, I do take ******* Omega Guard which is a full spectrum of seven Omega-3's including DHA and EPA. I understand that there have been many studies on the benefits of Omega Fish oil on the eyes and body as a whole, so I started using it sometime ago. I'll continue with that and give the Restasis a good try. I have no risk factors such as high cholesterol, high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes or obesity, so I think your suggestion of 2 a day is fine.

Just curious how many people out there that have suffered moderate-severe hairloss from hypothyroid have had a substantial hair regrowth. I lost over 1/4 of my hair and I am worried it will not grow back. I have heard synthroid can actually make you lose more!

I go for the VCO, virgin coconut oil. It is also antiviral and antibacterial, thus would maybe even help prevent or diminish rashes. It is great on the scalp and hair too. I have been very lucky not to have any dry skin problems, yet... Maybe I can partially attribute it to drinking about 4 liters (1gallon) or more of water per day. I am not using more creams than I did before tx. The only place which feels dryer are the soles of my feet and I use a mixture of shea butter and VCO on them.
