Suggest Remedy For Severe Hairloss

I have had contact hair loss, had full hair for years, had all test done with lab work, hormones fine, thyroid fine, all panel test fine. Does biotin help? Or argan oil on hair help. I ve tried a lot of protein things on my hair (mayonnaise , egg etc) and am dropping hair just when I run my hands thru it. After all that , I was reading about biotin. Do you have any suggestions? I am 65 and had a 0.1 estrogen patch on me for 10 years. But my estrogen levels are spot on. Do you have any thoughts to help? Thank you for being here, Ann

hello,welcome to healthcaremagic

since all your investigations have come to be normal, i doubt your hair loss has a pathological cause.

most probable cause of your hair loss in GENETIC AND SENILE. at your age hair loss is v. common.

you need to know whether alopecia runs in your family. if it does there is nothing much which can be done.


and according to me, there is nothing to be worried. this is a natural process of life.

using various drugs and oils will only worsen the situation.

i would advice you to see a dermatologist if you are really concerned for the hair fall.

hope this helps.
thank you
