Question 1

does having ovaries removed cause hair loss?

Accepted Answer

Hair Loss: Yes, having your ovaries removed can cause hair loss. Hormonal therapy is usually effective for this type of hair loss.

Question 2

what should i do about my hair loss after having my ovaries removed at age 35?

Accepted Answer

Lab test or meds : A thorough workup with your primary doctor or an endocrinologist may reveal a hormone deficiency which can be corrected. If that does not help, you might consider a consultation with a hair transplant surgeon. There are some other medical therapies which might benefit you.

Question 3

i take propecia for hair loss. can taking ginger root extract orally interact with the propecia? thanks

Accepted Answer

Shouldnt be  problem: ought to determine what type of alopecia  you have. If male pattern baldness, would add rogaine 5 % twice per day to entire scalp

Question 4

i had my thyroid removed and its been 3 years. i'm a female and i'm still experiencing hair loss.  what can i do to reverse this?

Accepted Answer

See your doctor: It might not be the thyroid causing this anymore, especially if you are adequately replaced on thyroid pill.  You might need lab testings to confirm this and to look for other causes.

Question 5

can sunflower seed extract and sugar cane extract interact with propecia 1 mg? im taking propecia for hair loss. thanks

Accepted Answer

No: Would not expect any interaction of sunflower seed extract or sugar cane extract with finasteride (Propecia), which is a blocker of the conversion of testosterone to the DHT hormone.

Question 6

can arctium majus root (burdock) extract be taken with 1mg propecia safely without counter acting one another? im taking for hair loss. thanks

Yes: You can take both. But the burdock is a waste of money.

Question 7

can ginger root extract or coconut shell charcoal interact with 1mg propecia? i take the propecia for hair loss. thanks.

Accepted Answer

No interaction noted: Good that you asked, always exercise caution with multiple medications, especially those herbal medicines/supplements, pharmacists can help you too at the drug stores, best wishes

Question 8

can pregnant use aq hair loss topical solution:human fibroblast conditioned media,lonicera caprifolium-lonicera japonica (honeysuckleflower extract)?

Accepted Answer

Probably not: Better off not to use medicated anything during the first and second trimesters for obvious reasons. Consult with your OB on anything else before you use it

Question 9

can green tea and green tea extract interact with propecia 1mg? im taking propecia for hair loss. thanks

Accepted Answer

Not likely: Green tea is one of those things which theoretically contains useful molecules but has not been studied in a meaningful way by legitimate scientists. If you like green tea, drink it. Green tea pills are just a scam. If you want the benefits of propecia at a fraction of the cost, get FINASTERIDE 5mg and a pill cutter to create 4 pieces.

Question 10

i had the birth control implanon for about 4 months. i noticed severe hair loss. i can't even wear my hair down.. i had it removed about a week ago. what can i do to make my hair stop falling out. i.?

Accepted Answer

It will improve: If this is related to the implanon, it will improve over the next few weeks/months.  Check with your doctor to make sure there is not another reason.  Thyroid disorders can lead to hair loss as well.
