How much are you to blame for your hair loss?

In this informative video, Dr. Jerry Cooley of the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery explains how some common nutritional supplements used by fitness enthusiasts, hormone replacement therapy, and certain over-the-counter medications may actually perpetuate your hair loss.



Dr. Cooley discusses how changes in diet and certain nutritional supplements can cause hair loss. Undertaking a diet can cause changes in your hair density, including hair loss, and the components of some nutritional supplements, used for instance by athletes, can aggravate hair loss.

Certain over-the-counter or prescription medications can also cause or aggravate hair loss - such is the case of testosterone medicine prescribed to past-menopausal women, for example. Your hair loss physician should have an honest discussion with you about your life style and about the diets, nutritional supplements or medications that might have an effect on your hair loss.
