Any updates here?
I'm going through the same thing and doctors said it is because of stress. Even though I take meds for thyroid, doctors have ruled any other issue out. I was very stressed this past year (oldest son's wedding issues - all turned out beautiful!), particularly in the spring to mid July (wedding in August). I noticed I had sunburn feeling on scalp and itchy feeling. I still do, but not as much. Hair has been falling out (more than usual) and very thin in front/top.
I usually color (non-permanent) every other week but I've noticed my hair must be growing slower (or not at all
) because I don't see my grey roots as quickly. I'm afraid every time I do color.
I'm so afraid that the other hairs will all fall out before new ones come in. I can't even see new ones coming.
I'm 55. Trying not to stress about this, really. Doctor said to give it a year... I have a feeling I will not be stress-free for a year! (Things I know about - daughter getting married in CO next month; son getting married in PA in May; Avengers marathon in November and I haven't trained enough yet... all good and exciting, but certainly not stress-free!!
These include plane rides...
)
I'm usually happy, I walk daily, I try to eat healthy, but I do tend to worry even when it's something I can't control.
