Odd question - hair loss?

CaroleeCarolee member
in TTC After a Loss

Is anyone else/did anyone else have this problem?  I feel like every time I brush my hair, it's falling out.  I swear I'm going to go bald since I have fine hair and not a lot of it.  :(

    Yes, I started taking more Iron. But it's from change in hormones.

    You will not go bald..lol

    I did to a couple of years ago.  I had some other issues like being overly tired after 8-9 hours of sleep.  It's what prompted me to go to the doctor where I found out that I had hypothyroidism.  Once they regulated my thyroid, my hair stopped falling out.

    I noticed the same thing. I found that when I'm under extra stress that happens.

    I have a ton of hair so I always have hair loss. I swear I pull a rat out of my shower drain every week. I even bought stock in draino.

    I lost a lot of hair for a while but it has slowed down.  I still feel like it is more than usual so I am hoping it stops soon- for both of us!

    I hadn't thought about this aspect...I haven't had those tests done in years, so maybe I'll bring it up if I don't notice it slowing down over the next few months.

    I have had the same thing happening lately. My husband finds it everywhere and it is kind of gross. I noticed my hair was a bit thinner and I thought the same thing. I am glad I am not the only one to have this problem. Hopefully once hormones re-balance hair will grow back too! I will let my hubby know that I'm not going to go bald anytime soon. lol :)

    Mine tends to fall out a lot! It especially falls out when the weather is changing from hot to cold or cold to hot. And of course under stress.

    Loosing hair is normal following pg.  A lot of girls on 0-3 complain about it.  After my 1st pg it took almost 6 months before my hair stopped falling out so much.  Its due to the change in hormones both during pg and afterwords.

    I've always had a lot of hair loss, and like you I have very fine hair so I cannot really afford to lose any of it lol but I have noticed it more lately.
