So as above really. I’ve always had long thick beautiful hair and always used to have comments all of my life. But since I hit my thirties it started to fall out in clumps. I had my DS 5 years ago and I only noticed it 2 years ago. I went to the doctor back then who run every blood test you could think of and says all my levels of everything were fine and couldn’t work out what the problem was! :-(
So since then I’ve been trying to improve my stress levels, my diet, taking biotin supplements, not having hot appliances on my hair, using caffeine shampoo etc but whatever I do just gets worse and worse. Then I remember, 5 years ago my doctor switched my birth control pills to desogestrel which I think are progesterone only? And I’m wondering if there is a link?? If anyone else has experienced this I think I’ll stop taking them as I seriously am losing more than 100 hairs every time I wash it :-(
