Healthy diet, relatively stress free lifestyle, and nothing much to complain about, except that her hair was rapidly thinning and she had no idea why. In August, she went in for her yearly physical, and was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism. Carrie was celebrating her newborn baby's 1 month birthday. Unfortunately, it was the same day that Carrie noticed her hair was thinning extensively. She had no idea what was wrong. This just didn't make sense.

You do have Options

There are many other stories we could tell of women experiencing this incredibly devastating condition known as hair loss. It's hard enough for a man to lose his hair, but at least it is socially acceptable. For a woman losing her hair, the experience can be 1 thousand times more difficult. Confusion, fear, and anxiety can set in, and the feeling of helplessness is paramount.

There are products out there that can help, and treatments your physician can administer that will work - even for a woman. This is not just a condition seen only in men.
