Thank you so much for sharing your journey!

I'm suffering from the same condition can you please tell me the name of the second place you are going to get the painful treatment.

Gerard cosmetics has a new product that EVERYONE is raving about.. It's hair af. Look at the reviews and a you tuber Dustin daily and Nick Snider show there experience on there channels. Good luck and don't worry we love you just as you are!!💜

Although I don't suffer from Alopecia I do have fine hair, I use conditioner every other day. I do it for the same reason to keep from weighing my hair down. I only use one styling product (It's a 10) unless I need to use heat then of course I use a heat protectant. Other than my daughter I have never been able to convince a stylist not to put all those different products in my hair because it's glued to my head before I even get home!😂 I have to say once again I admire your courage for discussing this medical problem that so many suffer from, also once again you are stunning! 💕💕 What a wonderful informative video!

I’m wondering why have you decided to leave minoxidil and other hair medication as the last resort? I know nothing about these drugs and I also went the natural route first, but my hair loss was due to severe malnutrition because of a tumor in my small intestine. Even though it was a “temporary” issue, it affected me a lot, too, so I completely understand your commitment. I now try to have a well balanced and nutritious diet, take my vitamins and use aloe vera and castor oil combined with coconut oil and sapuyul oil, too.

So sad that no insurances give a fuck about our mental health or health at all really. Won't cover explant surgeries even when they are causing detrimental health issues, won't cover hair transplants, they suck.

@@hannahalyssa1473 Yes, girl. Don’t I know. I’m a manager for a healthcare revenue cycle company, so what my team does is fight insurance companies for payment of hospital claims. I’ve been doing this for 22 years now, and it was bad when I started, but it has gotten SO much worse. They’re getting very creative these days with coming up with reasons to deny claims. Either that or they can’t find a good reason and just take forever to pay. And that’s HOSPITALIZATION claims. When you consider other things that most insurance either won’t cover or cover only very small portions of (hair loss, infertility, dental implant surgery), it’s really infuriating.

Agree!! My hair was so thick I had to cut it. After the birth of my sons and during pregnancy I lost a lot. I have medical issues since 2 years and it keeps thinning 😢 I take vitamins, put in masks, don't brush it only wide comb, etc. It looks like it doesn't thin out that much, but still.

TRUEEEEE

Insurance wasn’t designed to help you, but to exploit you. Everyone has to start somewhere. The ‘healthcare industry’ is a pharma Nazi industrial complex. It took me years of research and dealing with the sick care minions (mostly good but mislead people) … and btw the entire pharma driven allopathic form of healing was based on a combo of a literal snake oil salesman known as ‘Rockefeller’ and expanded by literal Nazis who spread throughout the Americas after ww2, most of whom received no consequences or hand slaps for their criminal use of ‘science’. The pharmas today, literally do not care how many lives they destroy or end. And it has a LOT to do with the nefarious people responsible for establishing it. I was told 20 years ago by a former allopathic md who switched to naturopathy, that the ins companies are ‘in bed’ with the practice of what most of humanity thinks is the ‘authority’ or God like truth of how to best help people with health problems. It’s actually a good thing that there are important ant areas for which the insurance doesn’t cover, because it leads people away from them. However, you gotta watch out for the allopathic minions who will deny common easy cures, gaslight you and such… they are on KZfaq making videos but most of them will be that nice doctor you go to. Many are knowingly lying, many just repeat the lies they were taught. It is frustrating because they do have some good options. You gotta learn as much as you can to navigate the system. Hopefully you won’t have to make too many mistakes in taking their snake oils… to learn. One tip… avoid any antibiotic that ends in ‘floxin’, you might be ok if you take them, but if you do and six month later you snap your Achilles tendon or something like that, or other serious, difficult to cure injury, it’s due to this antibiotic … your allopathic doc is likely to deny it, because that’s what they are trained to do. Look up ‘floxies’ or ‘floxxed’… there are a lot of people who have to go to real doctors to get help and pay out of pocket… thousands to tens of thousands of dollars … ypur insurance and your doctor will destroy your health and are powerless to help you… but once you are on hospice, you can have all the morphine you want. I’m 53 and I’ve dealt with many doctors for myself, my children and my parents and I used to write articles and interview people… the allopathic doctors and their pharma products are dangerous. I no longer carry health insurance… just accident insurance.

Thank you so much. And she said "1" thing oon the title... 20 min video for 1 thing. 😂

These were already listed in the description & the chapter names 😅

What is prp injection

I used rosemary water and oil and it damage my hair and started losing more hair 😭

⁠@@sushipursewhen they do a PRP injection, they draw your blood and spin it to get the plasma to use for the injection. It’s regenerative medicine that uses natural growth factors found in our blood cells to help heal damaged tissue PRP=Platelet Rich Plasma

Exactly. I think this is why anyone hair grows. It's not the actual product that's working but the extra blood flow via scalp massage while applying the product.

Stop washing every not good

My mother used to do this for dad. He'd get hair growth plus it came in dark too! No grey!

@@monmixer69 what did she do?

@@Royalnessa Massage the back of his neck. The hair there grew and came in darker!

Did you end up doing all of these things for your hair? I'm looking to try all the things except for the PRP + mesotherapy. Need to save up for all of this. It's so much work.

Any update ?

Coz i do 😂experience chemical damage nothing seem to work pls let me know any of those are work for u thank you

@@El_Ophelia yes I'd like to know how things turned out for her as well and I'm interested in PRP since I'm basically going to direct my own medical care now but gosh she just scared me, is it that painful or can you be numbed

The DHT blockers and the PRP treatments are probably the most effective treatments you have had done. But most importantly, GO TO A DOCTOR and get a biopsy.

This is me as well. Androgenic alopecia and on top of that I had a bad iron deficiency that I wasnt aware of for likely years and I'm post menopausal from having to have a hysterectomy at the age of 30. Literally everything that can contribute to worsening hair loss has been my issue. I also tried both topical and oral minoxidil as well as a custom compounded topical version from my dermatologist. I'm also on Dutasteride and Spironolactone. My hair loss has slowed but not really improved. Many dermatologist said at this point the goal is to try and prevent additional loss, not expect more hair growth. And that has come from 2 dermatologists I've seen. My hair loss is mostly on the top of my head so theres really no concealing it. I have done root sprays and fiber powder over the years but for me at this point I have resorted to wearing wigs. I may try more scalp stimulation just in desperation to hold onto what little hair I have left. It has greatly impacted my self esteem and confidence too. Know you're not alone. ❤

I just dont want others to feel alone! Thank you so much for your support and watching my story!

I was diagnosed with pcos, I used castor oil packs on my stomach. I took mecca root and vitex. 4 months later it was ' gone' My hair I used moisture repair shampoo by mastoora beauty accompanied by an oil ( i prefer Avocado oil) never used conditioner again.

Same here 🫶 it gets better and then gets worse. Neverending roller coaster 🎢 I just keep trying to remind myself there are bigger things :))

@@emmasowinski8548 SAME , you get your hopes up just for it to get worst again , and also same with the mindset part it’s not easy considering we’re young women in a society that sees your appearance as your “value” ,and with pcos it’s a full attack , your face and weight and hair loss and the puffiness , I often wonder what I could’ve looked like if I didn’t have it and it hurts to know that it’s not leaving

Me too. Doc just said use rogaine. No questions asked, didn’t look, nothing.

Definitely go get that second opinion! You deserve to get actual care from a doctor and you deserve to have your health actually investigated. I wish you all the luck ❤️

My doctor had the same response. "Yeah, it happens sometimes, and we don't know why. 🤷‍♀️" I wanted him to test iron, hormones etc, but nah, didn't seem important to him. Before I left (disappointed), he told me that I probably wouldn't lose ALL of my hair so not to worry...

You should look for an endocrinologist female dr. The endocrine diseases are going rampant 🥲🥲🥲 You should test your iron level too and have a complete hemogram because anemia indeed can cause hairloss too 🥲 as can severe nutritional deficiencies. Edit : i would also test for lupus and autoimmune disease in which case you would need to see someone with competence in immunology. In my country all the analysis i need for my pcos cost me almost 600 ron which is like 135 bucks. I actually need to test my thyroid because owo nuclear threat from Russia and to see if i am eligible to take the KI pills in case of nuclear accident. I am not yet 40 yo but i have endocrine disease and now occasionally high blood pressure high pulse ive been given plant meds and metoprolol but i guess thyroid checking is a must either way.

See a dermatologist

This sounds like me. While I haven’t asked my doctor about it I’ve taken it into my own hands too. I felt like I had bigger medical (hormonal) issues to discuss and wanted to be taken seriously. I may still bring it up in the future. While all of us in this thread realize the impact of hair loss, not all do. The amount of information I’ve read is vast. I have wondered about spironolactone but I’m not sure how that plays into a menopausal person. It’s different when your body is producing enough hormones that to block some would help, but things are different now. I’ve gone the holistic route also. I spray my hair daily with rosemary water and oil it twice a week (prior to shampooing). I take vitamins and am strict with my diet. Sleep is a priority now too. I was severely affected by poor sleep over the last decade and I think that took a toll. Menopause affects everyone differently but I was definitely affected by it so it think my hair loss is attributed to it. The timing is obvious too. Now, how much is normal aging vs hormones, I don’t know. I’m putting up a fight with my hair. I’ve read studies on the impact of menopause on people and I’m a very positive, encouraging person and I would like to stay that way. Hair loss can affect ones self esteem and I don’t want to go down that rabbit hole any further. I’m happy you have found a way through this, sounds like ours are very similar 💗😊🌸

My gyn put me on spironilactone, luckily. It and essential oils like rosemary, lavender and especially emu oil have helped me immensely! It took time though. I also take biotin and I'm on marine collagen too. Lastly, I am on HRT, estrogen & progesterone for my post menopause symptoms.

FYI for everyone taking Biotin. A lot of doctors don't know this, but Biotin can give false readings on blood tests. To have an accurate blood test, you should stop taking all Biotin at least a week before any blood tests. I had been taking Biotin for years and none of my doctors informed me about this. I was referred to an Endocrinologist a couple years ago and he told me that they are learning that Biting can not only affect the blood test results of your thyroid, but also heart tests and other tests as well. He said they are learning more all the time how it is affecting bloodwork for various blood tests. He said just to be safe, he would recommend to stop taking it at least a week for any bloodwork being done. He is a great Endocrinologist. He was the only doctor that was able to diagnose me with a serious life threatening problem I had for years, but no one was able to figure out what it was. I went to at least 13 different specialists, of all kinds. Also, if you have fast dramatic weight loss, it can also cause hair loss. That usually is only temporary and will eventually grow back. Just make sure you are eating healthy, getting enough protein and taking good vitamins. Spironolactone is also helpful. My doctor put me on a low dosage for hair loss. Make sure your shampoo and conditioner does not contain sulfate, paraben, they are really bad for your hair. Also Thyroid imbalance and low iron can also cause hair loss. This is why you really need to see a doctor and get tests done. Make an appointment with a good endocrinologist. Checkout their reviews. I saw 4 different ones before I saw this one. He had just moved to my area and his office had only been open for 2 weeks. So I was able to get in to see him right away. Most can take months to get an appointment. Good luck everyone! ❤️❤️❤️

Good luck and thank you

It took over 30 doctors over 2 years to do the RIGHT test. I did a ton of research and thought I may have SLE and the only doctor that listened to me was my old gynecologist.I did test positive for SLE,hence massive hair loss. I believe Now,my hair loss is coming from menopause but I hate the thought of having to go from one doctor to another until I’m taken seriously.Sincerely,good luck to you all that are battling hair loss.God bless!

Hair loss after pregnancy is caused by telogen effluvium, which is quite different from androgenetic alopecia. Not to suggest it's any less disturbing, but TE usually is a stress response after one's hair increases in thickness in the androgen phase. It's usually temporary versus progressive.

cmon now stop with these ads

I have been using reactivate hair growth serum for 15 weeks, and I'm really impressed with the outcomes. My hair feels strong, seems better, and the volume of hair loss has noticeably decreased. The serum is easy to apply, not oily, and has no fragrance.

Thank you so much for you support!

I had 5 rounds of PRP. VERY painful and didn’t work.

Me too !! Same story ! Now Im 30 and still didn’t find a solution

check with derm ur diagnosis blood test for iron, thyroid, vit D and sex hormones. sex hormones should be taken on 3-5th day of the cycle and interpreted by a gynecologist

Hair loss and depression : definitely check your vitamin D (chalicifediol), try high amount vitamin D3 in oil form (like 10000UI but you can take even higher for the first few weeks if you are very low in Vit D) and check again where you're at with blood test.

@@user-tw4ol7ko8m my vitamin D was very low it is at 10ng/ml and it should be between 30 and 60 !! Ive been taking each month 10,000 Ui every month for about a year and it only went up to 19ng/ml 😓

Im so sorry! But you definitely aren't alone and you are beautiful no matter what!

Jodie, you took the word right out of my mouth! I have struggled with this on and off for 20 years and even gone as far as having injections in my scalp. You are not alone 💖

Hey if you want long healthy hair try my diy oil it will save your hair comment on my youtube channel your results 🥰

get ur diagnosis first from a derm + blood test for thyroid, iron, vit D and sex hormones

It could also be post COVID hair loss......

Biggest thing that worked for me...Start using a Good Scalp Conditioner and a scalp massager. I use mine several times a week because it doesn't make my hair greasy. It's like a lotion for your scalp ❤️

Thank you for sharing your experience as well! I wish you and your family the best!

Thank you for this reminder!

How long did it take before you saw results?

Where do you get it? Brand name please! Thank you in advance.

@@GalCharlotte The Ordinary is the brand name, Ulta or Sephora

Hmm weird. I inquired about that product and they told me it does not regrow hair, they said it helps make the hair “appear” thicker only.

I LOVE The Ordinary products. I've only tried the facial products and had no idea that they made products for hair. Can't wait to try it.

Hi. I think this is what might be happening to me. I have a chronic illness too, and have to take alot of painkillers. I wonder if this could be contributing to my hair loss.

Hi..I have chronic illness too and take meds. Reading both your comments, I just wanted to tell you my story and to say don't lose hope. Long story.....Two years ago, had long hair.that was starting to thin from thick with a neuro lyme flare plus sinus infections, fibromyalgia autoimmune etc. On alot of meds including painkillers, doxy etc. Then had to get a trim (was losing hairs, thinning) I got a cut by a new stylist. I said trim just ends, bangs...she made a mistake not sectioning me and took my long hair to short before i could stop her! Ugh. Traumatic for me....was physically ncomfortable in a pixie and looked stupid bad. The trauma of her technique also with a thinning shear and part misaligned caused myhair to fall out down my side hairline! Not only did I have to grow out my hair from a longer pixie with layers, I had to grow in hair lost at the root too. Long story short.... meds and illness absolutely do affect hair texture (my antibiotic made it like straw and thinner at crown, lost extra hair brushing it) . Devastated I tried to turn it around desperately. My dr said do 2 things a week for your health no matter what and start from there to heal. It took me at least 6-8 months of really consistently working at it. I was ready to give up. Was going slow. It's a cumulative effect....you dont see it for awhile but things you do can count.... I blended green smoothies with fresh ginger, parsley, cucumber, greens, lemon and coconut water, I used Evolis promote shampoo line, found a great stylist who has autoimmune issues too and she has me mix lavender and rosemary oil into my hair or shampoo, I got the ok to use Hairtamin gummies ( I did 3 months on, 1 month off) vitamin d3 daily, kept hydrated with water infused pitcher (cucumbers, lemon, mint leaves etc) ate wild salmon for the fatty acids and basically just tried to keep calm, gently stretch to get moving (hard to with illness) and not look in the mirror and watch for hair to slowly grow 😅 At the 6 month mark all of a sudden it started to kick in. Growth. My normal hair texture came back by the 8th month. Not all is filled in. A small bald patch under top of my ear is just now sprouting! I got a steroid cream to help that area...Doctor thought it was dead. No just dormant from illnesses. You never know it can take awhile sometimes. Hair loss is not easy to go through. I had to learn I was more than just my hair, my identity...Wishing you all best ❤❤

@@user-dianejcml Thankyou for sharing your story, I’m so pleased it all worked out for you ❤️

You are so kind! Thank you!

just a salt and oil mixture ?

What kind of vitD do you use please?

@@fzjjoun2862 please don't take vitamin D just like that. Get a blood test done and only if it is low, take it. Most people are talking about taking vit D because it is usually found to be low in people. But vit D is not like other vitamins that you can just eat at will. Too much is going to ruin your body. See a doctor first. And even if your levels are low, vit D is not even taken all year round. Only until the levele comes to normal which it does in two months

could i use sugar as the exfoliant instead or does it have to be salt?

@@manalbehlil3365 yes.

Im so sorry you have been struggling! I hope something can help!

I went through the same thing after having my baby! My hair thinned out a ton and i lost my eyelashes 😣 nearly 2 years later my hair has sorted itself out but my eyelashes have never been the same

Hi!! Another new mum with massive hair loss here...is very hard to see your hair falling in strands but we are superwomen and we can overcome it!

Due to progestogen drop postpartum. The hair loss should stop naturally, but check hormone levels. Supplements can be beneficial, but consult with your doctor, especially if you are still nursing.

@@TheKitty1952 thank you ❤

Aww thank you 🥰

Excellent post! You are on the right track!🌷🌷🌺🌺🌷🌷

How did you get your mental health under control ?

I had very strong hair loss, I lost about 60/70% of my hair, I tried all kinds of treatments, I spent a lot, but a lot of money and no one could solve my hair loss problem, I was already losing hope, that's when an acquaintance told me about a gentleman who could help me, i contacted him by email, and he did some math calculations (based on my date of birth) and told me to get a haircut on the dates he calculated, i couldn't believe it it worked, but even so, I cut my hair on the dates he indicated (because I had to cut it even though there was only a few hairs), in the first month I noticed a small improvement, in the second month it was already very clear that my hair was stopping falling out, after the 3rd/4th month, my hair stopped falling out completely, I even found it more beautiful and silky

I'm going to try all of this. Thank you for sharing! Wish me luck!

What is your scalp type?

Thank youu 💘

you spray soaked fenugreek water on hair or drink it? if you spray onhair, is it last step after shampooing or rinse it out?

I’m sure your doctor has informed you about the root cause of your PCOS, Once you are able to control your insulin (diet) your hormones will stabilise. However, the second components to having excessively high insulin..you more than likely also have a Candida overgrowth..which can destroy your gut. So, getting good nutritional absorption can be a struggle. Once you tackle the Candida..the joint and tendon inflammation will ease, and your body will begin to release excess water and fat. Love and light ❤️

@@mobutter2879 your comment just described what I have %100 ! In addition to that I would add to check the thyroid cause she probably has the insulin trying to mess it up as well !

@@mobutter2879 %100 not fully accurate, there are multiple kinds of PCOS and not all of us have poor diets nor do all of us have high insulin. Pcos is a hormonal issue not a diabetic issue, although many suffers of pcos are more prone to developing diabetes.

Luckily my A1c is normal - I have no sign of diabetes or prediabetes. Mine is just very hormonal with acne, hair loss, and missed periods which are luckily helped with Spironolactone and OCPs. 🙂

Thank you for sharing where you’re at now in your hair journey. I believe in you! Many times we have to twist our doctor’s arm in order to get what we need from them and it is worth it! They do not always know best. Follow your gut. 💚 I’m struggling with thinning hair and I noticed what has helped me is taking extra Lysine (an amino acid found in protein-rich meats and vegetables) and taking a prenatal vitamin. The prenatal vitamin I take is the Mama Bird once daily prenatal Multi-vitamin. I don’t know if you’ve tried prenatals but they’re a great way to get some extra nourishment that we don’t get enough of from our food alone. Hope this helps. 👍

Yeah exactly... She's using expensive vitamins or herbs like visical and Nutraful. The problem with taking supplements is that once it gets to the liver it destroys most of the nutrients.

@@pinkdiamond9935are you referring to any specific of the bottled products or just generally- the overflow is going to the liver and therefore isn’t helpful- a waste of money and hard on your body?

Try her products advise is natural and why not.. whole foods sell oils , for hair
