    Yes definitely probably due to stress or lack of vitamins

    Yep! I took a double hit, thyroid problems plus rapid weight loss. My hair is starting to come back but it's been more than a year. One reason not to try to lose too quickly!

    Yes. I have Hoshimoto’s disease, and anemia so that doesn’t help. I currently have a nice big ol bald spot on the left side of my head behind my ear. I was really embarrassed about it at first. Now, it just kind of is what it is. The doctor has me in some supplements. I’m just hoping it doesn’t get worse.

    If you are not getting enough protein in your food, that will result in hair loss. Hair is made of protein and your body is smart enough to know that if flotsam needs to be jettisoned, hair first.

    Just be as patient as possible. I had so many bald spots I would cry. Just be as gentle to your hair as possible <3

    Thank you for this! It so nice to just know that I’m not alone!
