I have no idea what to do anymore!
My hair hasn’t been long since I was 14 years old. I’m pretty sure it’s because of my anemia.
Unfortunately I have thalassemia and am unable to take iron supplements as my body will go into iron overload.
My HB is 81 and ferritin 42.
I have tried cutting my hair, I don’t straighten or apply heat, I’ve tried oils and masks.
My hair grows the problem is that it thins out and breaks at the end (lack of nutrients getting to it?) or it just falls out from the roots.
I’m active, I eat very well, I do not undereat, I eat high iron foods.
I’ve also had my hormones tested and they came back fine.
Where am I going wrong?
