Finebalance's Story - (34 /my story so far)

[finebalance]

I am 34 years old and have noticed thinning hair about three years ago. At first I thought it was related to anti-depressant I was taking but the hair loss continued and more rapidly since I have been off any drugs. In the last three months it has been terrible - I am terrified of having to take a shower or brush my hair. I collect hairs from my pillow and sheets every morning and around my house. I try not to touch my hair. It is very upsetting. Most people have not noticed yet - I keep my hair up all the time. My doctor agrees that there is a problem but all she found was a B12 deficiency which she is treating. Otherwise she is sending me to a dermatologist. It is very difficult to share this with many people so I am here for support and advice and to learn as much as I can about how other women are coping with this. Thanks!

i'm afraid that i really don't know about balding in women, but if it helps at all then your hair looks great in that picture, styled like that / at that angle i would never have suspected thinning.
