Liver and blood tests are normal. Any helpful suggestions for regrowth would be appreciated.

    depends on how much hair loss
    if its patches then it could be alopecia areata. the hair grows back within a few months most of the time
    sometimes if its a lot it could be alopecia areata as well,

    other causes can be bad diet, like not getting enough protein.

    just eat right and make sure u get enough protein! as well as eating vegetables and fruits =)

    Bad diet, and damage to your hair.

    Do you straighten it often? Curl it? blow dry it? If you’re born with naturally coarse hair, (like my friend) it can actually break off (I’ve had accounts of that from her and a few of my mom’s clients at the salon)

    your body goes thru hormone changes about every 7 years. this could make your hair different.. as well as how well you eat, how much sleep you get, any other types of medicines or supplements you take. stress could be the problem too. it also happens with age.

    If you’re facing the heartbreak of hair loss, you’re not alone.
    Millions of men and women experience some form of hair loss, whether
    it’s caused by heredity, stress, hair damage, insufficient diet or
    certain skin diseases.

    The good news is that there are things you can do to fight back
    against thinning hair.

    1.Eat a balanced diet. Make sure you eat enough vegetables,
    fiber, fruits, milk, and other proteins. In addition, take a
    supplement which includes vitamins such as A, B, B6, B12, zinc,
    biotin, and iodine to combat hair loss. Wash and condition your hair
    at least once per week.

    2.Try Minoxidil (Rogaine). It’s not just for men anymore! The
    application of minoxidil on the scalp stimulates hair growth in both
    men and women. Although it may not grow back hair in all cases,
    Rogaine can successfully stop hair loss. Ask your doctor if you’re a
    candidate for Rogaine.

    3.Use Volumizing Hair Products. These don’t stop or prevent
    baldness, but they can enhance the fullness of your existing hair.
    Volumizing shampoos, conditioners and styling products keep hair
    shafts from sliding past one another, resulting in a voluminous,
    thicker appearance.

    4.Camouflage It. Hairpieces such as weaves or toupees have
    come a long way in recent years, and can effectively disguise your
    thinning hair. They look incredibly natural and can be matched to
    your unique hair color. Hair weaving is performed by gluing, sewing,
    or knitting new hair to your current hair for a fuller look.

    Remember, having thinning hair does not mean that you are any less
    attractive or adequate, even if you feel that way. But it may help
    you to feel as if you’re doing something positive about your hair
    loss. The tips above can go a long way in keeping you looking and
    feeling your best.

    Too little food or too little protein can wreak havoc on your hair… Maybe try adding a multivitamin to your diet, and if that doesn’t help then your diet probably isn’t the cause…

    As far as products, anything that over-dries your hair (over-washing, bleaching) or causes a lot of build up (hairspray, heavy serums, etc.) can cause breakage that would make it seem like hair was thinning…

    Factors for hair loss in women

    The following are some reasons why hair follicles break their normal cycle and switch into a resting phase. These are the factors why some women experience thinning of hair and thicker hair on the other parts of their bodies. The causes include any or a combination of emotional and physical state such as stress, hormonal imbalance (especially androgen sensitivity), genetics.

    Some are caused by immune system irregularities including thyroid disorders, nutritional deficiencies (Iron and Vitamin A). Others may be due to cosmetic factors. Lastly, health conditions may contribute to the situation due to radiation or chemotherapy, dental treatment, blood loss, drugs, diseases, surgery and scarring.

    Treatments

    Immediate treatments are available in your own homes. You may consider the following steps to combat your hair loss by looking into some causes:

    • Dietary issues. Have a diet rich in protein and organic components. Avoid or better yet, limit sugar intake and other carbohydrates in your regimen.
    • Vitamin deficiency. Take multivitamins on a daily basis which may contain protein, biotin, zinc and vitamin e as these are all healthy for the hair. You may also consider calcium and magnesium. Make sure that these vitamins do not contradict the purpose of the other to attain better results. Essential fatty oils from fish and nuts may also be included.
