Rogaine for women

by Janet25, Mar 03, 2009 03:52PM
Hello everyone...

Does Rogaine  work with the hair loss due to hypothyroid?  I have been experiencing hairloss for more then a year now .  The partition of my hair is getting wider and thinner, i am so dpressed and cry all the time. I could see my scalp on the top of my forehead.  Does this help?  What can I take ? Please?

Some have tried the this - Few had good results.

You see the hair loss is the body ( hair)  showing "outside" issues ( symptoms ) to tell you something is off.

All the chemicals available will not balance you inside to stop this. You need to dig inside and fix that - then this stuff will fade away.

You said you are hypothyroid. What are your labs on your recent testing?

Did you have any additional tests done. FSH LH ?? Vits or minerals?

Try to list what meds you are on / dosages and a brief histroy on what brought you to hypothyroidism.

Hello...
My recent labs are

Free T4 1.4
TSH 0.453
Free T3

I had no additional test done.
I'm on Synthroid 75MCG and Metformin 500. And a bunch of vitamins. All my Aunt's have thyroid problems and so does my Mom.
