A member asked:

Eating salmon fish oil supplements my hair loss get worse and stop earing fish oil supplement my hair loss stop why ? i guess i have yeast overgrowth?

You have everything: Wherever you got these absurd ideas, stop going there. Fish oil supplements have no effect on hair and are a waste of money. "Yeast overgrowth" is not related to any changes in your hair. Forget this nonsense and see a dermatologist if you want true value.
