Thought I'd start a new thread. I've had hair falling out for a few weeks now , not stress but possibly hormonal / boderline thyroid , I've been getting handfuls everyday when I stroke/ brush my hair. My hair is noticeably thinner and the texture is really bad. I've been really scared I would get bald patches. I bought some alpecin caffiene shampoo. Put it one for the first time last night left it on for half hour ...... Wow just wow my texture in the hair is soooo better not all flat and blurgh looking and air for it ....... Only 4 hairs fell out all day ! Worth a try
