Question:

I am a female in my early 20s. After starting to take an oral contraceptive, my hair begins to fall out. I’ve tried several contraceptives and they all have the same results. Is there an oral medication I can take to counteract the effects of my birth control?

Answer:

Hair loss in women can be a very complicated problem. If this is solely related to your birth control pills, you may wish to consider an alternative form of birth control. In addition, your thyroid function tests should be evaluated to make sure your thyroid gland is not, at least in part, the culprit.

Question:

My son is just 17 and he's begun to lose his hair. What are some reasons this would happen in someone so young?

Answer:

This is not at all unusual. Young men can start losing hair as soon as they reach puberty. A family history of this problem is often seen.

Question:

I'm 34-years-old, female, and I've been experiencing hair loss ever since I had my son two years ago. What can I do to stop the hair loss?

Answer:

First we must determine the cause of this. Blood tests should be drawn to determine if the cause is anemia, a thyroid condition, hormonal issues or some other cause. Many conditions can be treated with appropriate therapy.

Question:

I'm a 39-year-old woman and ever since having children I've been losing hair and it's been getting thinner and thinner. It's particularly noticeable at my hairline. I would like to improve it, but do I first need to determine the cause of the hair lose?

Answer:

Sometimes such hair loss is due to either anemia or thyroid issues. Most commonly the loss in hair is due to small hormonal shifts. The hair loss can be improved with a variety of methods including red LED light.
