Brill news that your hair loss is slowing down, its distressing to leave behind a trail of hair wherever we go - especially when we don't have the energy to push a vacuum around the house to clear it away.

Which/what hair and nails tablets are you taking?

Its a blue and silver box with hair skin and nails multivitamins on the front. Im not saying that they are definitely the reason but I have been taking them for 2 months and have noticed a significant difference in hair and nails. Have also been using Alpecin caffeine shampoo though and have been eating more protein and less gluten and have also had a 25mcg increase in levothyroxine a couple of weeks back so who knows??? I don't old bean, just saying ;))

But if you mean whats on the packet as in ingredients then sorry Im not at home at the mo so cant chesk for you but basically a varied mix of vitamins but I remember checking them next to the perfectil and was exactly same

will check and report back :) x
