Hair loss

My hair is falling out like crazy! I’ve started on folic vitamins, for a week not letting up. Help!

  1. You know with our hair we have our ups and downs. I have had to shave my head 3 times. I tried the folic vitamins and it took a while to kick in. One thing I did learn is that the older we get, the slower our hair grows because of hormone changes, etc. This might be a question for your doctor.

    1. I’m sorry to hear, Michele, you’re dealing with hair loss. It must be so traumatizing. There is a supplement I take daily to alleviate my psoriatic arthritis symptoms. It’s Methylsulfonylmethane, MSM for short. It has tremendous anti-inflammatory effects for the body. I also understand it’s a very effective supplement for skin, hair and nail health. The brand I buy is manufactured by Doctor’s Best. Since taking MSM for about a year now, I’ve noticed my hair has gained volume and body. Plus, it’s a natural substance. It’s worth a try.
