Are you on HRT? That can reduce some of the hair thinning women suffer with around the menopause.

Request blood tests. Ferritin needs to be above 50 to support hair growth. ‘Normal’ can be as low as 15, you need it to be optimal rather than low end of normal, ditto for B12 & Vitamin D. Thyroid issues can also cause thinning hair.

Thank you. Yes I am on HRT. I will request bloods but is there anything I can do supplements-wise?
