hair loss on young lady

[Guest guest]

My 24 year old daughter is losing her hair. It's getting real thin and is

falling out. there is hair everywhere. she use to have thick hair and now it

is so thin. her eyelashes are coming out as well.

 

What is the cause of this and what is the cure for this? She has also lost a

lot of weight. I think some of it is stress related to a relationship that has

been sour for some time...but can't that also be from diet, or lacking somthing?

 

Any info will be greatly appreciated.

The best is a set of lab test instead of guessing. This could be hormonal, or

lack of protein or minerals, and also heavy mineral contamination (mercury,

etc.)

No one loses hair until there is a reason for that. Some high potency Allopathic

drugs do that and so does the Syphilis. Grieve or disappointment can be cause

also. Homeopathy have the treatment for such individual who restrict to it and

follow the instructions of Dr. You may have the right medicine after careful

individualization.

Hi Sue--I ran a story on my blog last year, from a woman who had serious hair

loss, hair falling out in clumps. The problem was soy food combined with high

dose birth control! My hairdresser confirmed that hair loss often is linked to

hormones.

 

Bobbie, a wife and mom screamed when she read about the Weston A. Price

Foundation prison soy lawsuit on the internet. She recognized in the description

of the symptoms being experienced by a number of Illinois prisoners, the same

horrible symptoms that she experienced 3 years ago.

 

After a longtime struggle with heavy and irregular menstrual periods, her OB Gyn

prescribed for her a fairly high dose birth control pill in 1996. Ten years

later, the doctor recommended surgery, to reduce her periods to 4 times a year.

Bobbie, wishing to avoid surgery asked for another option. Unbeknownst to

Bobbie, the doctor put her on an even higher dose of birth control medication, 9

weeks on the pill and one week off.

 

It was May 2006. Bobbie started experiencing ringing headaches, upset stomach,

she got tired easily, it felt almost like flu symptoms. In mid June, when she

complained of these problems to the doctor, she was told to try soy milk to

“balance her hormones”, 6 ounces a day.

 

Initially, she felt ok, then her symptoms worsened. Bobbie felt even more tired

than before, very lethargic. She was gaining weight. Her headaches were more

painful than ever.

 

Within a month, she went back to the doctor and asked, “Could the birth control

and soy milk be causing this?” The doctor was sure that it was just menopause,

and assured her that weight gain was normal for a 40 year old woman.

 

Bobbie called the doctor’s office back at least a half a dozen times,

complaining of her distressing symptoms. Each time, she was assured by the

staff, that none of their other patients had ever had a bad reaction to hormone

pills or soy milk, and that there must be something else wrong with her.

 

Then Bobbie started losing her hair, a little here and there. But one day while

washing her hair, she looked down and her hands were covered in hair. She

couldn’t even see her skin for the hair in her hands. Bobbie saved her hair in

bags, and put the date them. Her once beautiful tresses were all in Ziplocs.

 

She also began to have difficulty breathing. She often panted like a dog to get

air. She experienced heart palpitations and at night would wake up in pools of

sweat. She had to sleep with a wind tunnel fan next to her bed to make sure she

got plenty of air and to cool down her body.

 

She ended up in the Emergency Room a few times. Aside from receiving fluids, and

many tests that showed nothing was wrong from a doctor’s point of view, she was

left with more questions than answers.

 

In August, she visited her family physician complaining that it felt like

someone was pinching and twisting her heart. Her body was breaking down, she was

losing cognitive skills, and had difficulty functioning in her daily routine.

She suffered from diarrhea for 3 straight weeks, fainting spells, super low

blood pressure, and a bad rash on her chest. She was then constipated and her

abdomen was hard.

 

The medical professionals she saw were all stumped. They sent her to other

specialists, 2 neurologists, a surgeon, a second gynecologist, it was suggested

that she needed a psychiatrist (as though the problems may be all in her head).

Bobbie had cat scans, blood work, a colonoscopy, HPV tests, and she had her

gallbladder checked a couple times.

 

The general surgeon did discover that she had a huge amount of fecal matter

built up in her system, pressing on other organs.

 

A dermatologist that she went to for help with the hair loss, and rashes,

suggested she up the soy milk, from 6 to 8 ounces a day. He had no explanation

for the rashes and hair loss, only said that soy milk is helpful for hair loss.

 

After only two weeks on the higher dose of soy, Bobbie passed out behind the

wheel of her car. She felt like she was having a heart attack. She managed to

drive herself home and then collapsed on her kitchen floor for two hours.

 

Her body was bloated, her weight shot up from 127lbs to 142 lbs in two weeks

time.

 

She became a couch potato, spending all day on the couch after her daughter left

for school and until her daughter and husband came home at night. She cried

constantly, her joints ached, her heart palpitations continued. She was

exhausted, physically, emotionally, and not able to process information or

figure out the answers to a problem or help her daughter with homework. Her

husband brought home take out dinners, because she was unable to cook.

 

In September, Bobbie’s stomach was burning, even the least drink of water felt

like acid, it was torture.

 

She quit eating and drinking. She stopped the soy milk along with everything

else. It was too painful to consume anything. She would spend two hours trying

to get down a Wendy’s baked potato or a junior vanilla frosty, or, she would

just let a cracker melt in her mouth.

 

On September 22, 2006 she stopped the birth control pills for good.

 

No more pills, no soy.

 

Surprisingly, she began to feel a little better.

 

By November, she realized that her initial instincts had been correct. Soy was

the problem. The doctor had poo pooed the idea, which had made her doubt her own

judgment.

 

“After all, this doctor saw patients every day. This doctor must know more than

me,” she thought.

 

In December 2006, Bobbie found a natural health doctor. Dr. Bob is a

chiropractor, who calls himself, The Drugless Doctor. He has been working with

her ever since to help restore her health. He discovered through a hair

analysis, that Bobbie was malnourished, and her body was feeding off of its own

muscle tissue.

 

Before all this happened, Bobbie exercised 6 days a week, ate healthy, organic

food, lots of fresh fruits and veggies. She describes herself before May 2006 as

“the picture of health”.

 

An overdose of hormone pills and the plant estrogens and anti-nutrients found in

soy milk took her to hell and now she is back. Her hairdresser says her hair is

90% back to normal. Bobbie feels 95% better, although to this day she struggles

with joint pain, occasional constipation/diarrhea.

hair loss can also result from low iron ... go to doctor and get some blood

tests done.

Although supplementing your daughter's diet with iron, zinc and the vitamin

B group will help with hair loss I think there is perhaps an underlying

psychological as well as physiological problem.

I have found with my own daughter that their lives can become stressful in

their late teens, early twenties which can result in a lower immune system

and poor diet and sleep patterns.

Perhaps this is definitely a problem that needs a holistic approach rather

than trial and error with random vitamins and minerals etc. Suzie

Kimberly, thanks for that article. Scary. I am glad it had a happy ending at

least.
