Hair Loss & Replacement Blog

My hair (I’m 17) and my mom’s hair (she’s in her early 40s) is falling out. I can understand her hair falling out because she’s getting older but I think I know why my hair has been falling out… I haven’t been eating meat or anything with Iron in it and other important minerals.

I’m starting to eat healthy again but was wondering if anyone knew or took any kind of pills that helped their hair stop falling out. Thanks!

Oh.. besides "One A Day Women"
I’ve never dyed my hair.

I have been losing my hair for almost 3 years now. I’m only 23 years old and there is no history of women in my family losing their hair. I have been to several doctors including a dermatologist and an endocronologist, for my scalp and possible thyroid issues. However all my tests came back negative. I have been told that it may be cause by stress, but I’m not stressed. I did suffer from depression at the start of the hair loss, but that is no longer the case. I don’t take any medication with the exception of tylenol every once in a while for a headache and vitamins. But my hair continues to fall out drastically. I have to clean my drain out everyday because of it and I am constantly looking for some sort of shampoo or conditioner to help. Can anyone help me?

I just wondering if lack of vitamins and lack of drinking milk does it effect hair loss? I’m 20 now and since I was little I don’t really drink milk. But I eat others nurtientions food for the vitamins. Does it effect hair loss? I have very very thin hair and everytime I wash my hair seems like I’m losing a lot?
