Why am I losing so much hair?
Hello,
This is my first time posting on here. Hope I do it right. I'm stressing! Was diagnosed with Alopecia Aerota in May of this year. Then in June, my family doctor checked my thyroid. TSH level was .086. Was sent to an Endo and my TSH level was checked again in July and it came up to 1.18. Also, in April my gyno checked my thyroid and it was 2.04. My question is about my hair. It is coming out in handfuls!! How do I know if it is due to my Alopecia (possible diffused alopecia at this point) or diffused thinning due to my thyroid. I had one bald spot at the end of March and that is what started several weeks of trying to diagnose the problems. My Endo said that my TSH level was in the normal range (1.18?)now, so why am I losing so much hair? Not on any meds for thyroid. Going to have my levels checked again in Sept. HELP!!!

Am not used to this website, tried to send a message, you can read on my wall about how I cured my alopecia with Biotin and Iodine(Kelp)

I got your message. It was in my email, but couldn't see it on here. I am new too. With the Kelp, do you take it as a supplement or do you eat it often? I am taking biotin and have been for several months, but still having LOTS of hair fall. Very scary!!! Thanks for your response.

Ok, going to purchase some Kelp tomorrow. I read a little bit about it and think I may benefit from taking it. I am praying that it will give me some hope of growing my thick hair back. Thanks, Rob!!
