Thinning hair - supplements??
Is it safe to take
biotin
with my current pills? Are there any other vitamins supplements or products that would help my hair grow, thicken, shine a bit, which are safe to take with oestrogen progestorne positive cancer? My hair is now brittle and so dry,and also thinning on top.

Been busy - GP vs. FM GP
The endocrinologist I asked advice from was not convinced about the genetic testing issue ('there is no genetic variant which affects the conversion of T4 to T3'), and although he agrees that some lab tests for thyroxine are affected by
biotin
the (Local hospital) assay is apparently not.

Psa question
Got my psa reading today and it had a single message below it stating that the results may be affected by exogenous
biotin
consumption. This message wasn’t on my reading 2 weeks ago or any other reading. And 2) would the axium pet/scan I had earlier this week affected the psa reading any??

Latest blood test results confusing me. Help please
In theory I should feel fine, even a little hyper but, no, I still feel like c**p I stopped my B Complex (
biotin
) a week prior to the test, maybe this wasn't long enough. Vit D is now 80 (50-75) (up from 36). On 3000iu daily. B12 - was 213 (187-883).

Methotrexate hair loss
I am continuing with Folic acid and take a
biotin
supplement every day but wondered if anyone could let me know if they have gone through the same and was there anything that particularly helped to stop the shedding? I’m desperate :(

Do we need to stop all supplements before a blood test?
Hi everyone, I know that we should stop taking
biotin
-containing supplements for a week before a blood test, but what about other supplements?

False B12 levels and biotin
He handed me a copy of my blood work and right under the b12 result it said taking high levels of
biotin
will alter your blood work for anemias. WOWZA! My daughter gave me
biotin
to take and it is 10,000 mcg. I didn't mention it to my Dr. Now off of it and having blood work repeated.

Breaking fast early today... ❀
Lots and Lots of water Vitamins,
Biotin
supplement & two Omega 3 fish oil tablets *~*~*~*~*~*~*~* My point is basically that I am not worried that I am not getting enough nutrition, because when I do eat, I am eating foods packed with nutrition, I'm not eating junk.

Biotin and other supplements and meds
After having tests during which I had to stop taking
biotin
, as it interferes with results, I was wondering if it interferes with the absorption of other supplements. I don't take it with my thyroid and adrenal meds.

Liver cleanse while hypo and with adrenal fatigue
Since I'm off my Metavive, Adrenavive, and prednisone - as well as certain supplements like
biotin
and Bs - would now be a good time to do a liver cleanse?

Timeline and help

biotin

Is it okay to continue calcium prior to Thyroid Lab work?
Aside from
Biotin
and all B vitamins, is it okay to continue calcium supplements prior to TSH lab tests? My dr said to stop
Biotin
48 hrs prior to test.

Test result for Thyroid and NHS bloods - help needed please
Haven't had
biotin
for 2 weeks, either. I'm still waiting to get the adrenal tests done (saliva cortisol/DHEA) as my mouth is too dry to take the test. I'm going to have another go with that this week.
