1 Why Am I Losing My Hair? 8 of the Top Reasons You are Losing Your Hair and What You Can Do (Hint: 90% of Hair Loss is Because of One Reason) Cliff Notes This is an important issue: 30% of women in their 30s, 50% of 50 plus women experience this!! People don t realize this is a problem until it s too late. Definition of hair loss: partial or complete loss of hair. Most of the time it is reversible. It s normal to lose hairs per day. We only notice it when we lose more. Different types of hair loss - all over your head or different spots- clumps of balding It is a common attitude among physicians that this is a vanity issue. But it is an important issue for women who are getting older and want to age gracefully. o Doctors can give lame feedback; Rogaine does not treat the cause! o Another common treatment prescribed is Menasteroid, which gets rid of all the testosterone in the body. It is FDA approved for men, not women. Part 1: There are 8 reasons you could be losing your hair. 1. Iron and lysine 90% of women with hair loss are low in iron and lysine Premenopausal women (ages 35-50)- 23% completely depleted in iron (ferritin less than 15), 57% low iron stores (ferritin between 15 and 40) Ferritin of 40 or less- there is a problem with your iron stores Postmenopausal- 52% had moderate or excessive hair loss- 23% low iron stores, 5% depleted It is still an issue post-menopause. 80% before menopause, 20% after menopause 2. Stress/ Cortisol After a traumatic event, your emotional processing is different from person to person. Cortisol- helps you focus and fight and get yourself out of trouble when experiencing trauma We are only supposed to deal with stress for brief periods of time, but the problem is, some people experience this stress repeatedly and their cortisol levels soar. Cortisol is involved in other hormones as well. Charlie s angels (hormones important for women)- cortisol, thyroid, estrogen Cortisol affects your thyroid and estrogen, which is why there is more than one cause for hair loss. 3. Thyroid Thyroid problems affect 20% of population and they don t know it. We need to manage it now. It helps keep hair on your head.
2 Many symptoms of a problem with your thyroid- weight gain, cold hands and feet, constipation, mood problems, affects hair loss and hair texture (brittle) and dry skin The thyroid is responsible for your metabolism. It prioritizes what is most essential- shuts down what is not- i.e. beautiful hair and skin. 4. Menopause Menopause is when it has been one year since your last menstrual period. The hormonal changes are dramatic. You experience high estrogen then low estrogen. Estrogen in balance with testosterone changes, which can cause hair loss and also make you grow hair where you don t want it. Related to genetics 5. Nutrition How is food plan serving you? Are you getting enough iron and B Vitamins? Need to get it from food or a supplement There is more iron per ounce in kale than red meat. 6. Autoimmune problems Hair loss could be one of the first signs of a problem. Also affected by your food choices and exercise and having a sedentary lifestyle Alopecia areata- ANA test- increased hair loss Other autoimmune diseases that cause hair loss- Grey s disease, lupus, SLE, rheumatoid arthritis, celiac disease and fibromyalgia 7. Medications Many medications can cause hair loss 1. Telogen effluvium- lose more than 100 hairs per day o Experience hair loss 2-4 months after taking medication. It affects hair in the resting phase. o Examples include birth control, anti-depressants, acne medications, Advil, ibuprofen, thyroid medication, and weight loss drugs. 2. Anagen effluvium- affects your hair when it is actively growing o Experience hair loss in the first few days after taking medication. o Examples are chemotherapy medications. We are not saying don t take medication. Just look for a natural cure before jumping to a medication. 8. Androgens Like hormones, the androgens should not be too high or too low. Too high- more common- polycystic ovarian syndrome, loss of head hair Too low- loss of head hair, pubic hair Part 2: Is this reversible? Most of the time hair loss is reversible or we can slow down the process. Extremely rare for women to lose all their hair
3 This is different than men. The earlier you take this on, the better. Facial hair and gray hair- reversible? Gray hair is related to stress, heredity, thyroid function and the amount of melanin you have in your hair. Causes for gray hair could be that you are low vitamin B12, problems with your thyroid gland, and how you re managing stress. Facial hair could be related to polycystic ovarian syndrome or menopause caused by an imbalance of hormones. There are natural remedies. Part 3: Fix me now! Labs- things to test- CBC ferritin, thyroid- TSH, cortisol, androgens- testosterone, DHT, ANA etc rule: supplements 1. Multivitamin Liver detox- twice a year Thorne detox nutrients packet- 1 month/ twice a year, Thorne daily basics nutrient packet, Integrated Therapeutics- examples- Clinical nutrients for women, clinical nutrients for women 45+, mega multivitamin powder Not just one pill- one pill does not fill the gaps Fill in mineral gaps Detox- good to get rid of toxins- endocrine disrupters Reduce exposure and detox 2. Iron 59% of women experiencing hair loss have low iron and lysine Again, premenopausal (ages 35-50)- 23% completely depleted in iron, 57% low iron stores ferritin of 40 or less- problem with iron stores Postmenopausal- 52% had moderate or excessive hair loss 23% low iron stores, 5% depleted still an issue post-menopause 80% before menopause, 20% after menopause Ferritin- want to be between 70 and 80 Iron picolinate- Thorne, Integrative Therapeutics 3. L-Lysine- amino acids grams per day 4. Biotin Vitamin B7, ceratin- supports skin, nails, hair- stabilizes blood sugar Hair growth vitamin, spurs hair growth, reduces split ends- It is hard to get biotin from food. You need a supplement or you can use a shampoo. Dosage ranges mgs per day
4 Biotin Forte- Integrated Therapeutics If you experience patches of hair loss, you should work with a physician as this tends to be a sign of something more severe. If you are biotin deficient, you tend to have more yeast infections. 5. Omega 3s Fish oils- lower androgen imbalance- which contributes to male pattern baldness or hair loss around temples Gottfried protocol You want to fill the nutritional gaps with supplements. The goal is balace: not too little, not too much. 6. Hormones Stability, equilibrium There are five important hormones to consider when dealing with hair loss. a. Thyroid b. Cortisol c. Insulin d. Vitamin D e. Androgens a. Stabilize thyroid i. TSH in optimal range- (0.1 to 1.5 or 0.3 to 2.5)- make sure you take multivitamin ii. Autoimmune Thyroiditis- when your immune system attacks your thyroid, which increases hair loss. iii. It is important to manage stress properly. b. Cortisol i. Main stress hormone- glucocorticoids ii. Many ways to manage it- yoga, mindfulness iii. HeartMath provides a device that records your response to stress. It detects your heart rate and provides external accountability. c. Insulin i. Fat storing hormone ii. If you have a fasting glucose of 87 or higher you have insulin resistance. iii. Glucose intolerance test- fasting insulin should be less than 7 iv. Hemoglobin A1Z- tells you what is happening with glucose over the past three months- optimal range is less than 5 d. Vitamin D i. Involved in brain function, thyroid hormone production, thyroid function ii. Dosage between 75 and 90- toxic >150 e. Testosterone i. Low glycemic index food plan ii. Glycemic Index- ranking of carbohydrates extent to which they raise your blood sugar- the higher the GI, the faster you digest it iii. Ideally, you want to have lower GI foods. iv. Eating lower GI foods lowers your androgens.
5 v. Make sure you are getting enough fiber because it helps with getting rid of estrogen and testosterone. vi. You want to eat Omega 3s rather than Omega 6 fatty acids. vii. Zinc is important to get from food sources Remember: Everything is connected; this is your beauty blueprint. Hair loss can be reversible If this is overwhelming, pick just one thing and start with that. Make a change; you will get a different result. There is no one pill that is the magic bullet. When you start to focus on your hair, you will feel empowered and you get other benefits! Your energy is better and you will experience vitality.
