Hormone replacement therapy changed my life. I’m 44. Literally gave me my life back. Why aren’t more women being treated by helping them balance their hormone levels? I had to go to a functional medicine doctor before I was able to get help and to be listened to. They were the one ones who figured out I had an autoimmune condition as well. Changed my diet, got my hormones back in balance, and I went from 160 lbs. to 134, no more depression, lethargy, hair thinning, night sweats, mood swings, flash anger…all of it went away. I’m a psychotherapist who after my journey got an education in holistic integrative nutrition to help other women. I’m so sick of doctors putting us in anti-depressants and telling us to lower our stress. It’s insulting as hell to be honest. We need hormone treatment, not psych meds.

Spray bottle?!! who knew?! I've been struggling with the dropper, a blob even fell on my cheek!! this is great!! Thank YOU!

[belindadesoto]

I use estrogen, progesterone, protein shakes, vitamins and biotin

[happycook]

A chin length bob with extremely light layers near the ends makes my hair look fuller. I had thin fine hair before and now it is like feathers. Hair coloring helps it look a little fuller too.

Minoxidil worked wonders for me. Sadly, i had to stop because it was casuing dizziness. It got pretty bad. I stopped minoxidil, lost all my hair again, but my dizziness stopped. So sad 😞

[musiclover-cujy]

I take Minixidil orally once per day. I’m very sensitive to medicines, and I’ve had no side effects. Within a couple of weeks, I noticed my hair seemed a little ‘bouncier.’ Eight months later, my hair is fuller, I don’t have any in my comb, and it doesn’t get dirty as fast. I really do see a big difference. My physician feels the oral pill performs better than topicals. I’m really pleased

[ofshadowsandsecrets]

I will be adding this to my grocery list the next time I head out! I’ve been experiencing hair lose, for the first time ever, after having a radical hysterectomy last year. Thank you for the tip!!

[laurarowland]

Cant wait to use..i have premenstrual syndrome and post menapause at 60..gair loss and 30-40pounds overweight and now i have alpha gal😮..so yired of rabbit food..thankyou for all your information that you provide to make our lives better😁

[rgoob]

i used Kirkland brand Minoxidil and pour it into spray bottle twice daily. Then I switched to oral Minoxidil because it saves time, and prevents the 'wetness' on the hair, drying time, build up, because i wash my hair 3 to 4 times a week. My hair has never been thicker and growth phase at max.

[Greenfields-wp]

Wow thanks for the tip ! I’m definitely going to try it - hair line issues in front

[Ger-hkkf]

I am taking vitamin d3, 2000-3000 is a day and a good omega 3, and magnesium and have seen a big difference. Also, alcohol is a contributor to hair loss.

[cristinapascari]

Thank you! I'm in peri-menopause and tge hair loss is excessive, will try this too!

[Chellees]

Oh My Goodness!! This might just be a game changer for me! I’m dealing with major hair shedding/hair loss/ hair thinning! I’m devastated!! I’m going to try this to see if it will help me!! Thank you!❤️😊

[DelenaLearns]

Stress makes me lose hair. I found that I wasnt eating enough nutrients, especially protein and my hair is way longer then its been my whole life.

[surfinia]

I use PILFOOD PLUS 45, a complex for hair loss and it works! It also contains copper, for reversing grey hair process.

[pattyfejeran]

Your hair looks so good!
I need to get this. I wish I would've known this almost 10 years ago, my hair looked good at 50 but when I hit 55, I noticed my hair was thinning. Now it's really thinned out . I'm 59 now. 😊

[JnniferLynn]

As if menopause isn’t degrading and humiliating enough, but we gotta lose our hair too? 😢

[kikidee]

I use minoxidil 5% topical and 2.5 mg oral once a day with 100mg Spironolactone and it really works. It might work a little too we’ll if you don’t want hair ALL over, it helped bring my hair back to life though.

[AbraAlahouzos]

I’ve had great success using a 50.00 red light from Amazon. The before and after pics are amazing. I don’t like using chemicals so this was a win in my book!

[lorrainechavez]

Oral minoxidil the only thing that works. It is an old oral blood pressure lowering medication so since I have hypertension it works great for me on 2 levels. Make friends with your tweezers. Red light therapy was also recommended. But I'm pleased with this systemic treatment.
