well I got a shock on xmas day,regarding my hair, first I usually have very short hair when I looked through the mirror I noticed on my dark hair either side next to my ears a pure white large patches of hair.omgYes, was losing it by the handful with lots in the plug hole after hair washing . It grew back again fairly quickly after diagnosis and getting glucose under contro. I did notice hair loss again before being diagnosed as hypothyroid..
It's now thick again and because I tend not to go to the hairdressers that often, it takes him ages to thin it out so it lies flat.
Hi Beckie thanks for this. Did you take any extra supplements? I think it has stopped falling out but its still thinner at the ends.I noticed this to, it was coming out in clumps for the first couple of weeks! But as others have said, once my sugars were under control it came back thick and fast. Try not to worry about it as that will make it worse (easy to say I know!)
Thanks! I was diagnosed in August 2014. You have just been diagnosed recently! How are you finding it?Hi, yeah I was diagnosed I'm August and my hair before I was diagnosed was really thick, and I mean thick. The whole stress of being diagnosed and the change of lifestyle Is a big shock to the system. Don't worry about it, your hair will start to thicken up a bit soon. When were you diagnosed?
No Worries! Yeah, i guess it was a bit of a shock initially but have come to terms with it pretty quickly! Just finding out now that i have to eat little and often to keep my levels stable but yeah not too bad thanksThanks! I was diagnosed in August 2014. You have just been diagnosed recently! How are you finding it?
