Hair Loss & Replacement Blog

Right off the bat I will tell you- I have NO ovaries..I am 20 years old, and i have two children. My husband is EXTREMELY frustrated..because for the last two years I have wanted ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to so with sex…no exageration..NOTHING.
However, my dr just drew my blood to check my hormone levels to see if I needed hormone replacement therapy (because I am not receiving it at this time and never have) and she said my hormone levels were perfectly normal….for a normal 20 year old with two working ovaries….I haven’t had ovaries in well over 6 months..so why are my hormones high???
Also, with in the past two days or so I’ve started lossing A LOT of hair…if I run my fingers through my hair I end up with a HAND FULL of hair in my hand..no exageration…
My Dr won’t tell me a thing until she gets the post op report from my obgyn…..so just to be knowledgeable I want to know what this could be…PLEASE someone help…I hate my brain spinning like this..I’m bound to think of things a lot worse than they actually are…so anyone who has a clue..please tell me..I posted this a couple days ago and got no responses…Please help…
Thank you
I did get a copy of the results…and the retest results..and the post op report..Both Ovaries are GONE, and my hormone levels are in the normal range for a woman with 2 ovaries…still in the same boat with no answers as to why. Thank you for the tips with my sex drive though..
and as far as symptoms go….the only new symptom is the hair loss….the lack of a sex drive has been going on LONG before my ovaries were taken out..so its not because of the oopherectomy

I am a 26/f. I have been having hair loss for the past 6+months. Doesn’t seem normal. When I take a shower, I run my fingers through my hair and 4-5strands come out at a time. I am wondering if it is because I wear my hair up in a ponytail 24/7?! It doesn’t run in the family. I want to start taking a good vitamin to see if that is the cause. Any recommendations? Can wearing a normal ponytail cause the loss?

Each Time I Run My Fingers Through My Hair, Some Of It Comes Out.. Like Five Or Six Strands.. I’m Worried.. Is There Anything That Will Help This??

For the past 2 months or so my hair has been falling out. Each day when I just casually run my fingers through it, I get almost a full handfull of hair that just stays in my hand. I’ve never had this problem before; I don’t dye my hair, I don’t use any damaging hair products and the like, so I can’t figure out what can be causing this. I even changed my shampoo and conditioner and stopped using gel just in case, but that has not helped with the hair loss. I think I eat a pretty balanced diet, I don’t take any medicine, so I’m pretty much at a loss as to why my hair keeps falling out. I don’t take any vitamins, but I’m considering starting to take some in hopes of stopping the hair loss and generating new hair growth. I’m relatively young – in my early 20’s, so I know that it’s nothing attributed to age. Though I have had some stressors for the past few months -but I’m not sure if stress can cause such significant hair loss. I would really appreciate some advice regarding this.
