PCOS Hair Loss

[M20162018]

Any tips/advice for PCOS hair loss? I am not overweight, eat healthily but due to PCOS my hair seems to have stopped growing and has become very thin. Also TTC.

You are limited due to TTC sadly - I don't know of anything that helps while ttc/being pregnant tbh. Obviously the combined pill can help hair loss but obviously not for you at the mo.

Thank you. My hair was much better when I was on the pill. I might get some extensions in the summer to add thickness- if theres enough to hold on to!

My hair was really bad after having Noah so I cut it short which made it look thicker (luckily I look ok with short hair!!!) but its not for every one. I went back on the pill after a year so it then thickened up again!!

I’ve had a small chop today (There isn’t lots of length to it anyway). She said I’ve got some new hair growing back. It’s just so thin and short! I’ll just go with it for now, could be worse! Also I am off the pill for a reason so its worth it.
