Title: Menopause and hair loss?
Post by robin on Jan 16th, 2003 at 11:06am
Does anyone have anyone have information regarding menopause and hair loss?  My hair has thinned significantly over the past 2 years, I am hoping it will eventually stop (or I might be bald in another 2 years!).

Help!

Here is a site that deals with hair loss: http://www.tlhs.org/care.html. I'm not sure about the menopause bit because I don't know anyone who has been through that yet *blush*. I do know for sure though, that if you don't eat properly you will lose a lot of hair, especially if you are a vegetarian like me. So make sure you are eating healthy :) - oh and layered hair also makes it look livelier if you're losing a lot of hair. Hope that helps!

Just an update:  I have found that I was able to curb the hairloss when I added Biotin and Silica to my supplements (which already included MSM).  Some say this combination will increase hair growth as well.  I have not seen an increase, but the reduction of hair loss has been fantastic.  :D

My husband says that since I started taking Silica he doesn't have to unblock the plug hole so much ::)

I'm still not sure what's causing it, but I have half the hair I did a year ago.  It began falling out by the handfuls mid-summer last and is still falling out.  I look awful.  I've posted about this before, but I hadn't decided to try anything like the biotin and silica.  Can you guys tell me where to get this stuff and how much to take?  Is there a brand that's better than the next?  Do they sell biotin and silica seperately at the store...???  I don't know anything about either one of those nutrients.

Thanks.  I really miss my hair, so I'd like to try whatever I can to make this fallout stop.   ???

Most health stores sell the supplements separately.  I order mine from www.vitaminshoppe.com.  Good luck!
