PCOS hair loss: Typical PCOS hair loss concerns relate to an imbalance of testosterone, and DHT versus your female hormones. Low thyroid can also occur with PCOS. A scalp exam and blood test should be performed to rule out other causes. Birth control pills, spironolactone, metformin, finasteride, biotin, increasing exercise, reducing red meat intake, low glycemic foods, stress reduction have been shown to help.

Ok..: Treat PCOS with Metformin and increase your protein intake, take a multivitamin pill. Get your stool examined for ova and parasites. Avoid adulterated hair applications./coloring agent/moisturizer/oil.
