Someone please help!

Im a 27 year old female whose hair is noticibly thinning. Both my parents have thin hair so I know its genetic. I have 3 sisters all who have thicker hair than me. (I guess I got stuck w/the gene!) Anyway, Im so self concious about it. I feel like its making me depressed! If someone has any advice for me about vitamins I can take or anything I can do I would really appreciate it. I tried cutting my hair in a shorter style but it doesnt flatter my face and I wasnt happy w/it. Now its about shoulder length, I really like the style but I cant even pull it back w/out checking in the mirror that now "bald spots" are showing. Please, please I need advice!!
Thanks!

Hi, I want you both to know that you are definitely not alone. Many of us suffer hair loss and feel that there is no hope. Biotin is a great start to help improve the new growth as well as the overall condition of your hair. Another great way to manage the loss and possibly grow back hair that was thought to be lost is to start taking Brewers Yeast. I take this religiously every day and have been for about 5 months now and all I can say is that it is worth it! My hair has grown back and is actually growing faster. Also, the new growth is healthy, not wirey and frail like when it used to grow (which was like just a couple of inches a YEAR!) So please try Brewers Yeast. Any type of amino acid supplement is also good...I use Brewers Yeast tablets, folic acid, and Hairtopia Amino Acids every day. My reasons for hair loss are from thyroid issues as well as medication. These supplements have made me feel alive again and happy. It is so hard to lose hair...there is hope but you have to commit to your program and not give up. I hope this helps. Take care and good luck.

That is actually a really good question. Brewers Yeast does not cause any weird yeast infections. However if you are prone to them(yeast infections) it can't hurt to ask your doctor. I am not prone to infections but I did ask and was told that Brewers Yeast is a safe supplement and that it would not cause any problems for me. And it hasn't.

I''''ve been using biotin and brewer''''s yeast for 5 months and have seen absolutely no difference. Is there really anything that can help those of us who are genetically predisposed to having fine & thin hair (a very little of it). I''''ve tried every supplement anyone has ever mentioned that might help and nothing actually does. Do people like me have to get a hair transplant or does even that not work. Sorry to sound negative, but the older I get the more depressing it gets. I''''m only 28 and am depressed about this on a daily basis. I''''m sick of having no hair.

If you had a biotin deficiency, this could cause non-heredity hair loss. But true biotin deficiency is rare. There is no such thing as a brewer's yeast deficiency. If you try supplements according to the label instructions for a couple of months, and you can't tell the difference, then clearly it didn't work for you. Stop wasting your money.

Have you been to see a specialist?
