hi,
i have recently noticed diffusive thinning hair.
so i did a ''hair loss blood test'' and here are my results:
i don't really know what these should be to stop/slow down hair loss.
can someone help me understand these numbers?
should i do more tests or get on medication?
i got a warning with the test result that b 12 should be higher.
cortisol is clearly to high but i got no warning about that.
i read online that tsh is best at something like 1~1,5 mine is way higher.
i think i may have something that relates to my hair loss
both my grandfathers and my father do not have male pattern baldness. ( i know i can still have it)
i feel tired way too much.
i cant fall asleep easily
cant concentrate/ think like i used to when i was younger
i have acne that started around 20 before i had none
i'm always really hot
cant grow a good beard
hair gets greasy really fast especially the front half
my skin is too dehydrated
i have really dry lips
and i have a really hard time building muscle and gaining weight.
im 6 feet tall but only weight like 130 pounds
i used too eat pretty unhealthy so it was understandable.
bit since a half a year i eat really healthy with lots of vegetables, rice and protein.
but i still am not gaining weight and i think this is a contributing factor too my hairloss
so does anyone know what i should do?
are there any tests i could do to know what the f* is happening to me?
i already use some supplements and shampoo but no real medication( see my regime)
i know about finastride, but with the possible sides effects i don't think its smart to take it when im already not feeling well.
thanks in advance for any advice you can give me.
English is not my native language so i am sorry for any mistakes.
