[QUOTE="Mal37, post: 1408239, member: 370848"] My year with diabetes type 2 has resulted in a lot of changes, but perhaps the most upsetting ... as a woman ... is my hair falling out in handfuls during last Summer ( which is when I noticed it first. Has anyone else had this happen, and do you think it IS the actual diabetes itself, or could it possibly be linked to taking Metformin? I ask that ... because, since my three tablets per day have reduced to just one breakfast tablet now (in stages) I don't see handfuls coming out under the tap while rinsing it as before ... but it is so thin now that I have to wear a hat to keep my ears warm. My hair kept them warm previously. My once thick fringe now exposes my eyebrows through it :( Does anyone know if this will improve/regrow? Your comments would be most welcome x [/QUOTE]
