Hair loss after raspberry tongue

Hello,

it's nice that someone takes the time :)
I have already had a comprehensive blood test done, I have slightly low iron levels, for which I am taking something, and a slight underactive thyroid, an ultrasound is scheduled for the beginning of September.
Visiting the gynecologist might be a good idea ..

For hair growth, I am taking a 3-in-1 product from Abtei with zinc, biotin, and folic acid I believe.

Do you have any other suggestions for me?

Dear Judith,

In this forum, you have the opportunity to ask a follow-up question after the first answer, and the answer to that question is included in the price of the first question. Please contact the organizers of the website, you may be refunded for the second question.

Thyroid disorders can cause hair loss, both in cases of over- and under-functioning, although the thyroid gland is often wrongly blamed for symptoms. If you have iron deficiency, which is common in women due to menstrual bleeding, it is important to check for ferritin levels rather than just hemoglobin or iron levels in the blood.

Seeing a dermatologist would also be helpful, as there are methods to investigate the cause of hair loss through hair root microscopy, but this is a private service and is only offered by specialized dermatologists.

Using a combination product is certainly not a bad idea.

Get well soon!
