Dear Eva,
I am 42 my hair is thinning at a rapid rate, particularly in the front. Since it started two years ago, I have had my thyroid levels checked by two dermatologists, my gynolcologist and my family doctor and all say that my thyroid falls well within the normal range. I took oral contraceptives in hopes of regulating my hormones/decrease testosterone. I have also tried minoxydil as well as biotin, B complex and pre-natal vitamins. Sadly, nothing has helped; I find myself staying home more often to avoid people treating me differently than they did in the past. This week on your program, you recommended seeing an endocrinologist if you weren't getting answers about hair loss, so I scheduled an appointment with one today--he is a "Top Doc", so I am saying a little prayer. I also made an appointment with your best friend, Lynn, for a quality haircut/lowlights. My question is this...there is a clinic 40 minutes from my house, that offers cool-touch lasers that supposedly help to improve hair quality, if not grow/re-grow hair through your living follicles. It costs upwards of $1500.00 and requires going in for 30 minute treatments 3x/week for one year. Is there any merit to getting this type of treatment? It would be a big time/money commitment for me, so I would greatly appreciate your insight.
Thank-you,
Brooke
