I've been using that same GNC Skin Hair & Nails formula, and it's been making a big difference for me too! It does work.

Please tell me, where do you get the HorseTailRush Herb Extract? I would really like to try it!

I am in the earlier stages of diabetes II. Can it make your fall out? I am now controlling my blood sugar.

If you are taking Coumadin, antidepressants and high blood pressure medication all at the same time or each one by itself that can cause hair loss.

Now that there is a lot of emphasis on eating nuts to prevent altzhimers be aware that Brazil Nuts contain so many antioxidents that eating too many of them will cause your hair to fall out, the same as if you were taking chemo. (Info found in a health magazine). Eating all things in moderation is the best advice.

Yes, stress causes baldness. Stress causes one to pull out one's own hair too.

When will everyone just face the facts: male-pattern baldness is just something that happens, like life and "poop". Thousands have smeared ungodly substances on their pate to grow back the surrendering follicles, and all they became were tempting treats for escaped bears.

My point: Unless you would like to be an h'ors d'ouvres for a rampaging grizzly, make the best of what you've got and stop sweating what you've not.

Iron deficient anemia will also make your hair fall out.

Check out Dr. Matt Leavitt's book "Women and Hair Loss: A Physician's Perspective" (sold on his website) for great info on the many reasons women lose their hair. There is also a wonderful section on all the questions your doctor should be asking you when you have hair loss, what tests he/she should be doing on you, etc.

This is true, I was in a stressful situation, and it fell out in patches. I was so embarassed. The dermatologist told me I had alopecia, my hairdresser told me to drink more wine...lol. In about 6 months, the patches grew a white soft fuzz, which fell out again, then replaced with normal hair. Stress is a horrible thing when you allow it to consume your being.

Lupus can also be a cause of hair loss. I had noticed for a couple of years that my hair had been thinning, and didn't know what the cause was. I didn't find out why my hair was falling out until I was diagnosed with lupus a year and a half ago. So, hair loss can be caused by more than stress.

You won't believe this but I found it to work. When dealing in times of stress I found that my scalp will throw off a greasy type of sweat. It's not like normal sweat. I find that these cause hair follicles to clog up. I try to take a tissue to wipe it off. When I do, I find that my hair goes back to getting thicker. Ever wonder why bald people have shinier scalps? My theory is that they sweat out this sweat or grease from the top of their heads. To prove that this isn't bunk have you ever noticed that they're hair is not shiny from the sides or the back? Take a piece of dry cardboard and blot the top of your head. Then try the side of your head. Look at the cardboard. See what I mean. The part you blotted the top of your head with will have some kind of grease. Meanwhile the one you blotted the side of your head with is dry.

Get some Amla oil or coconut oil from the indian store and massage it into ur scalp 3 times a week. My hair was falling out from stress and braiding but I started to see results after a month...little sprouts of hair growing back in. In addition to that, take some MSM supplements, its does WONDERS for both hair and skin!:-)

The article isn't about male pattern baldness, which is a totally different issues. Stress related alopecia is not genetic and is, hopefully, temporary. Most of the rest of the above certainly are on the mark-thryroid, nutrition and lifestyle changese are relevant factors.

The timing on this article is perfect. I've noticed my normally thick hair is suddenly quite thin. I figure it might be hereditary thin hair setting in, but I have been under quite a bit of stress from illness. The GNC formula sounds like just the thing to try, but it is comforting to think this could be temporary.
