Doc said falling hair due to stress. True??

I'm losing quite a bit of hair, had it cut shorter, made it a bit better, I'm 55, what about hormones? The doc just looked and said that I had my roots showing so new hair was growing in..its stress. What about thyroid? Also I started Lipitor in February.But I have had TONS of STRESS in my life. Any ideas??? *Thanks*



Doc said falling hair due to stress. True??

Yeah, get a new doctor. Did he even consider that it might be hormones or your medications? My hair falls out seasonally. But I'm also on meds and hormone pill, my thyroid hasen't worked in years. If the problem persists go back and see him and insist that he listens to your concerns and checks the proper things. Maybe you need to have some blood taken so your thyroid can be checked. It took me three years to get a doctor who finally checked my thyroid and it took another three years to get my dosage of hormone pill right.

it can be all of those things plus genetics.



Doc said falling hair due to stress. True??

Yes. Sadly true.



Take care of your diet. Need proteins.



Just relax. Give yourself scalp massages with warm olive oil. Will help growth and relax to.



Ask a friend, neighbor , family, hubby, Bf to do it ; Once a week even better. Avoid chemicals. Wrap a warm towel after that.



Wash after an hour or more.



Also, when hair is dirty, it falls .



Give some of those traditional 100 strokes. Like at least 25-30.



Helps.



Wish u best.

If you don't believe what your doctor is telling you find another one. The issues you brought up are very good to be asking your doctor. Getting health advice from any joe is not safe and will just add to the stress you already have.

stress does make your hair fall out



Doc said falling hair due to stress. True??

yes

yeh it could be any of them or alipiaca ... its a skin and hair illness and there are different types , or it could just be your age ... as you get older the hairs stop growing and still fall out . i say see a different doctor or go and ask your doctor more questions .



Doc said falling hair due to stress. True??

Yes, hormones ( why your hair falls out when pregnant), medications, and body problems ( your thyroid), and stress play a big role in hair loss and weakness of your nails. Any medications you may be taking will effect your hair as well. I would suggest taking a good vitamin for protein and using a shampoo such as Nioxin. It is great for fine and thinning hair and helps promote growth at the scalp. Yes, as long as your hair follicle is still open you will still grow hair. Short hair is the best way to go for now as it will make your hair appear thicker so it sounds like you are doing the right thing there. Best of luck to you.



As long as you are taking good care of your hair, I really wouldn't worry about coloring it. If you are worried about the damage of color use a semi-premanent color. Redken's ( professionally done) semi-premanent line of color actually helps to strengthen you hair. A thing with color you may want to watch out for is the time it takes to color and how it takes the color becuase along with the hair loss this can be effected as well.

Look at your parents. Question solved.
