What helps with hair loss?

I see the original post is old, but thought I’d chime in.

My endocrinologist suggested iron supplement every other day, mine is about 18 mg (hard to find a low dose iron pill) and Vitamin D, 2000 mcg.

He also said Biotin can mess with some blood work. I didn’t ask which blood work. I just don’t take it.

I had been shedding like crazy for over six months, my used to be thick hair! After a number of months on this regime, all has calmed down!! If the iron and Vitamin D didn’t help, he would offer me minoxidil, but I don’t need it now.

@willow5, I have begun taking 2000 IU vitamin D and my doctor recommended Hair, Skin, & Nails and there is biotin in those soft gels. There are 5,000 mcg biotin. I don't know if this is going to help. I was glad your problem settled down. I may be on the right path and I thank you for providing your experience. With all good wishes, @joybringer1
