Natural Remedies/Hair loss
Hi all, I have lupus of the joints and am currently on hydroxychloroquine. I have only been on it for 1 year and my hair loss is quite bad at the moment. I am not sure if it is the autoimmune or the medication? I am only 34 and the thought of being on medication for life is horrible. So I was wondering

Alopecia
I've got a bold patch around the temple area and when I googled it last night the word '
alopecia
' came up and that it was an auti-immune problem. So, on top of everything else I'm going bald. I'm thoroughly depressed by this; seems there's no end to the joys that this disease brings.

23 weeks pregnant and really scared.
My eldest is nearly 14 and has developed a tiny bald patch on her scalp, I am so scared it's
alopecia
because Ive stressed her out so much. I feel so selfish, I've not thought of anybody around me. Maybe even writing this is selfish?

Hi everyone, hope you're all well. I had excision surgery 3 months ago and since then I've noticed lots of hair loss. It's breaking out at the root very easily and also snapping off at the ends. I have very thick hair so it's not noticeable but i can feel it thinning out which scares me. it's also

Endo and coil
I've been struggling with awful periods for 20 + years and just death with them. It got to the point I just couldn't deal with them anymore and saw a consultant Monday. He took a biopsy and said it's probably endo and he thinks I should have the coil fitted. I had 4 cesarean sections my last being 16

Saw palmetto capsules
Hi since I was diagnosed as hypothyroid, I have lost more & more of my hair on the top & sides of my head, and it was becoming a real problem. My mother (also hypo like me) has the same problem and her hair is terribly thin. I did some research on line, and for a month have been taking 1000mg saw palmetto

Kelp
Just wondering if I was right to stop taking my thyroid support supplement now I am taking levothyroxine. I have read that kelp itself will now be useless (but harmless) however there are also other good things in there such as selenium manganese , chromium and L-tyrosine.
