Hi Shaznay, I just read my bottle... I thought it was called "Biotin" but it's called "Hair Anew" and it has biotin in it but also these things: Vit C, E, B-3, B-6, Biotin, B-5, Zinc, Kelp, Insoibal, N-Dimethyl Glycine and Bamboo Ext!
How are you, by the way? I haven't seen too many posts from you today. You are so witty! I look forward to your posts. I hope you are having a nice day despite this crap we are all going through!
Blimey Kim, did you blink and miss my posts - I've been all over the place! This forum is addictive! Just posted on a thread about losing weight - now that's tailor-made for me: Slimming World, Weight Watchers, Atkins, Low GI, Cabbage Soup. You name it, I've probably tried it - shame I'm still as fat as ever!!:-)
Yep Biotin. Found some of that in my Menopace supply. At this rate I'll have hair like Rapunzel!!
Did laugh on Saturday night. I'm notorious for having my hair floating around in everyone else's Meal ( never my own, curiously!). My poor son actually found a strand entwined AROUND a broccoli floret!!! I am excelling myself these days, clearly!
Kim, I love a good laugh. Tried the crying stuff: it didn't agree with me. I'll just stick to the laughing/ swearing/ranting formula to get though this as it seems to work for me!!:-)
Shaz! You are the best! Lol!!! So fun! That's hilarious about the broccoli! It's after midnight here... Took a handful of pills...still awake *sigh* now thinking of ways to get out of work tomorrow - that's pretty much the routine every Sunday. But I always manage to drag myself in. Night for now! Hope your day is lovely!
Hi:
My hair loss is bad also. I think it has to do with the hormones. I just started back on my premerin after 10 months and hope it will help. If you find a solution to the hair problem please let me know.

Hi Kathy, no, not yet, but I found out my vitamin D levels were very, very low, which can cause hair loss. I am now taking 10,000 EU per day. If it slows it down or stops the loss or I notice any new growth, I will report at once! For now, I fill in with those fibers that work by static cling that you shake on to make your hair look thicker. They work, but it's just so sad. I consulted for a hair transplant a couple years ago... I may consider again because my balding area is right up front near my bangs/fringe. Good luck and if YOU find anything, let ME know! Also, I had to stop taking hair growth vitamins because the Niacin was making me flush badly to the point of people asking me where I went to get so sunburned. :-/ Good luck!! Kim
Hi KIm i too have been put on the 10,000 EU a day because mine results showed to be very low too, im glad to have read this as on the packet it says to take one a week! not one a day as ive been told by my doctor to take. didnt realise this may help with hair falling out so maybe ill see less of my long hair all over the house , maybe. everyone keeps complaining lol

Oh wow! I didn't even read the bottle. I read the endocrine society's recommendation that says to take 10,000 per day and the emailed my doc and asked if it was "ok" and she said, "yes" so I am taking 10,000 per day. I sure hope it helps too! If not, I'm going to save up for a hair transplant. My bald spot is in front and I can't cover it without shaking those synthetic hair fibers on my head :-/ keep me/us posted and I will too! Xo Kim
Hi Kim,
Seems like a major issue, lossing hair with peri-menopaus/menopause. Some of the products might help you for hair growth but not to the great extend. Going for a HT is not a bad idea as we all know there are some abroad the countries at very affordable costs. Hair Transplant Abroad is the one of the most popular and successful clinic which will guide you through the whole procedure..
