Hello,
I am a 32 yr old female with no real underlying health issues. I have been experiencing hair loss for a few years, however, it has gotten much worse recently. Nothing traumatic has happened and I do suffer from anxiety and am taking Zoloft. Everyday is a struggle. I am losing clumps upon clumps in the shower, and even brushing out more afterwards. In addition, I cannot put my fingers through my hair--when its dry--without hair coming out. I have been to a number of doctors who keep telling me it is stress-related, but I feel that is not the only problem. This is excessive. I am currently taking Vitamin D and Vegamour. I was prescribed Minoxdil by mouth and Spironolactone from one dermatologist who barely looked at my scalp, but I have not started either. I fear, if it works, I will have to be on it for the rest of my life. My hair is visibly thin all around especially in the front. I can only go one day without washing my hair as it gets very oily. I do have severe Gerd/acid reflux. Could this be a contributing factor, or even the main problem? Doctors have been telling me no, however, I am not so sure.
I really need some guidance as I am losing hope.
