Sea kelp
Hi, Wondered if you can give me advice on taking sea kelp? My weight has gone up so much in 6 months and I'm trying so hard to lose it (just under 2 Stone) but lady in health shop said I need to speak to doctor before taking it. Sea kelp will help with weight loss so that's the reason to buy it whether

When to stop taking Biotin before thyroid blood test?
Happy Friday everyone :) I have been taking biotin every day and my blood test is in 5 days. Would the results still be affected even if I stop taking them for 5 days?

Kelpās benefits are not without risk
I am more than happy to accept there are benefits from taking kelp supplements - the research convinced me to add some to my diet - just a low dose of 200mcg / day just around the RDA so no big deal in the scheme of things. I also took on board the very clear advice to dose up with selenium at the same

Encouragement for those who suffer hairloss
I just wanted to offer my experience of hair loss with severe primary hypothyroidism. I was so upset back in November when I was diagnosed. My hair had fallen out all along my hairline but following the advice of my endocrinologist I bore with my dosage of 125mcg Levothyroxine (first thing in morning

Querying Biotin before a blood test.
I know itās best to stop taking Biotin supplements before having a blood test, but does that advice apply to toiletries too? I use Biotin shampoo and conditioner.

Vitamins for loss
I'm taking a number of vitamins to try to stop hair loss and promote growth. I suspect it could a side effect of high dose of Levo for for thyroid condition. Need the dose to be high to feel normal. Wondering if it is beneficial to be taking this much vitamin together. Or would it be better to do alternate

Lap scar pain
Hi ladies, I had my first lap at the beginning of sept last year and every so often my scars get really itchy and sore. Does anyone else get this? Is it normal? Should I mention it to my gp? Any advice would be appreciated Thanks x

Telogen effluvium
So - after having hair falling out in greater amounts - Iāve finally seen a GP who is taking my concern seriously and Iāve bern diagnosed with the above. Looking up information on this I see it says it can be due to stress and or auto immune disorder. Anyone got any further info or advice please?
