Hi, I know how it feels when you’re seeing hair falling out and getting thinner, I always had fine hair but over time it gets more noticeable. There’s a fair amount of helpful products and advice but it’s best to research them because even herbal remedies can be tricky especially if you’re on other medications. I use biotin which is herbal and comes in pill form, it helps to slow down the hair fallout and allow new hair growth to develop, another option is Monoxidril which can be applied directly to the scalp and it can really make a difference, I’ve never tried it because my doctor said that it affects the heart, I’m a senior so I have to be more careful, also Monoxidril only works as long as you keep using it, once you stop the hair will fall out. These are just a few options but there’s a lot more that you can use, of course there are places to can get help from but they’re very expensive, I hope you find something useful for your needs, best wishes.

I experienced severe hair loss.
Hormonal issues—such as thyroid imbalances and elevated cortisol levels from stress—can contribute to hair thinning. Testing cortisol levels might help identify the underlying cause.
