Can anybody know a remedy for loss of hair, as a result of a treatment for thyroid ?

Hi Eldad



Here is the answer you need.



Cause



Hair loss can occur due to low thyroid functioning, poor digestion, parasites, nutrient deficiencies such as iron or biotin, hormonal problems, aging, trauma, post-pregnancy, skin disease, diabetes, chemotherapy, and stress. All of these factors must be considered and ruled out to be sure hair loss is not part of a more serious, underlying condition.



Caution: If you begin to lose large amounts of hair suddenly and for no apparent reason, seek prompt medical attention to rule out the possibility of an underlying disease.

Natural Cures



Aromatherapy: For temporary or severe hair loss, massage lavender, rosemary, thyme, or sage essential oils directly onto the scalp.



Ayurveda: The Ayurvedic herbs ashwagandha and amla can help stimulate hair growth in cases that are not due to genetic predisposition.



Diet: Eat an organic, whole foods diet high in potato (with skins intact), green and red peppers, sprouts, and unpeeled cucumbers. Such foods are high in silica, which gives strength to hair and nails. Foods high in iron, such as some lean meats and raisins, are also important. Sea vegetables such as kelp are also good for the hair and support proper thyroid function. Be sure to check for and eliminate any foods to which you may be allergic or sensitive.



Herbs: Massage the scalp nightly with an oil made of one part rosemary oil and two parts almond oil.



Homeopathy: Sepia, Arnica, and Acidum nit. are useful homeopathic remedies.



Juice Therapy: Drink the combined juice of carrot, beet, spinach, nettle, and alfalfa, adding a bit of onion.



Lifestyle: Circulation to the scalp is important and can help prevent hair loss. Increase exercise, scalp massage, and try lying on a slant board for 15 minutes a day.



Nutritional Supplementation: The following supplements are essential for healthy hair growth: flaxseed oil, biotin, niacin, vitamin B complex, folic acid, vitamin B5, PABA (para-aminobenzoic acid), silica, iron, trace minerals, and zinc. Free form amino acids, especially cysteine, can also be helpful, as can kelp tablets, desiccated liver, and thyroid glandulars.



Although elevated levels of copper can lead to brittle hair and split ends, low copper levels can also result in hair loss, and should therefore also be considered.



Topical Treatment: Rub castor oil into the scalp for ten minutes, then apply a hot damp towel for 30 minutes, and then cover your head with a plastic shower cap and keep in place overnight. The next morning, wash out your hair. Do this for two nights, then, repeat this using extra virgin olive oil for two nights, then use wheat germ oil for two nights. Rest one night and repeat seven-day cycle.



Apple cider vinegar used as a hair rinse can also help stimulate hair growth.



Best of health to you



Cheers

GET A WIG.

ok - there are loads of treatments for hair loss



depends which type you have - there is one where the hair is thi ning and another where you get a bald spot.



The thinning one i know nothing about - the other one is alopecia.



this is usually caused by stress and there are no quick cures and most of the lotions and potions are a waste of cash.



im sure they work for some people - ive just never met anyone they actually do work for.



eventually the hair should grow back.- meanwhile rather than try and entice your hair to grow back -which doesnt work, there is a product called fullmore - basically a spray which you can buy on ebay - its like mascara and covers up bald spots.



I think it works well enough and prevents the social awkwardness of being slightly bald(especially if you are a girl)



its good enough if the bald patch isnt huge. If you have loads of money - get implants.

Talk to your doctor...because it is your life!



Your thyroid controls many body functions, so please don't mess with it.....and follow your doctor's advice.



don't take the advice from anyone on the internet without checking with your doctor, and tell the doctor's office what advice you're thinking of trying.



I believe they will say no, stop and only listen to them.

i was tested a few years ago for hyperthyroidism and all that radioactive material they pump into your body has always bothered me.made my skin crawly and sometimes tingly and jittery.if you have had radiation treatment therapy its quite possible that your hair loss is because of the treatment. give it a few month it should grow back.medically speaking there isnt any other way to treat the thyroid.if your thyroid is being killed by radiation you will have to take a pill every day to keep your body functioning normally.i was given the same pill but after a few months the doctor called and said i didnt have to take the meds any more.i have to take a handful everyday anyway so no big deal.in order to live longer we have to take many synthetic drugs and to stay alive.i love life even if i am 100% disabled cant work any more and have chronic pain in my spine.however life is a gift from GOD so try to do the best that you can and dont sweat the small things that are thrown at you but those bigger things you have be cautious about and try to work through them or maybe around them.
