Hair Loss

[shaws]

I thought some may be interested as it's a common question on the forum:

Maaaan shaws I need shades to look at this lady's teeth - there's no way they're natural, whatever else she's promoting !

Hair loss / thyroid problems run in my family and hairloss has crossed the male/female divide. I disagree with Barbara about androgenic loss...it's not reversible IMHO. Minoxidil only works on the hair you have left. And you have to cope with 'the dread shed' when you start using it, where you get more hair fall, before it settles down. You must continue to use minoxidil for the rest of your days, or any improvement is lost over the next cyclical turnover.

I used progesterone throughout my perimenopause and although it alleviated many 'pause symptoms it had no effect on my hair. 

My topper looks like her hair, tho, just not as blonde.  But I'm errr...slightly more Junoesque

She's missed out low iron levels and low vitamin D levels.

Even if these levels are good we can still lose hair and it's quite a common problem if hypo.

She doesn't look bad for being over 60.

She had a section listing all the common causes of hair loss and missed these out though she mentioned vitamin b12. 

I was too busy staring at her teeth to work out her age. Though I worked out  she is promoting some pharmacy

I think she promotes her own products. As far as I can see she has/had a TV and radio programme.

It is her own company, I think, which provides the products.
