When Your Hair Falls Out

When your hair falls out your social self esteem can take a nose dive. Believe me, I know this from experience. When I suffered a years long Crohn’s flare-up my hair would cover my brush with each swipe.
Hair loss can leave you feeling helpless, anxious and very lonely in such a social world.
We’ve all been told not to worry about what others think but when you’re trying to comb over bald spots and wondering if anyone will notice it’s hard to remember that simple advice.
My hair grew back when I was well enough to eat a balanced diet. Others have regained their hair after reducing the stress in their lives.
There are many reasons for hair loss and there are many treatments available. Talk to your doctor. Don’t let your hair falling out turn you into an unhappy, isolated person.
Embarassment of Autoimmune IBD Crohns and Thinning Hair

I suffered from the embarrassment of thinning hair almost as much as I suffered the embarrassment of the autoimmune IBD Crohn’s disease. That was before Provillus.
I suffered with Crohn’s disease for years. Actually, it was even years before I was accurately diagnosed.
Crohns is an auto immune disease that can attack your digestive system anywhere from your mouth to your rectum.
As a result of Crohn’s disease, I was not getting all the nutrients I needed to keep the rest of my body healthy. Mixed in with the pain and “embarrassment” of the disease was the fact my hair was thinning.
You’d think hair loss would be the last thing on my mind as I was doubling over with ungodly pain. It wasn’t though. I’m a vain woman.
With perfect timing on when to eat and what not to eat or whether to eat at all, I could fake my way through the day as a somewhat “normal” person. I couldn’t however, fake my thinning hair.
It got so I would refuse to look at my brush after brushing my hair. It was just too “scary”.
I will always have IBD Crohns but thanks to natural results I now have a really nice head of hair. Even at my age!
If you’re seeing too much hair loss on your pillowcase and in your brush, or if people are constantly picking strands of hair off your shirt, you may want to try a natural solution.
Thinning hair doesn’t have to be cause for embarrassment. Look that brush in the face and take action!
