scarring alopecia
I need more help with my loss of hair then I have gotten. What vitamins or minerals or lotions, creams, shampoos and conditioners, etc. can I do that might help? I am 63 and have been losing hair on the top of my head and now I can see my scalp!! Have been to a dermatologist several times concerning this matter. Nothing works so far.

Hair Loss
I am 58 years old, and I have just noticed a few weeks ago that my hair is getting extremely thin on top. I went to my doctor, and she ran some blood work, which came back normal. She then examined my scalp and determined that it appears that I have female pattern baldness. My father had male pattern baldness, and it appears I have passed it on to my two sons who are in their late 20's. I felt terrible about having passed it on to them, and now it appears that I suffer from it too. It has totally consumed me since I have discovered the thinning. I work in sales, and meet with clients and coworkers each day. I have lost all self confidence. I have an appointment with a dermatologist in March, but I don't have much hope for healing. I have become very depressed, and cannot sleep at night. HELP!

Good Morning to all,
I have been glancing around the net and came accross this site so i started to read. It's ironic at times, one finds exactly what one needs. I found some very good articles and i am looking foward to reading many different topics which i can self educate. For right now school is not feasable.
Thank You.

Fibromyalgia, Chronic pain, Sex after menopause, ad nauseum !
I am thrilled to have found you !! On Thursday, 10-22-09, I happened to be listening to Dr. Radio on Sirius 114 on my way home from grocery shopping, feeling bad and in much pain from my Fibro when I heard your patient "host" Jenny (she has the blog ChronicBabe.com) and the Dr.'s speaking of chronic pain, Fibromyalgia and ways to ease chronic pain. Your website was mentioned, and here I am. You are now in my Favorites and I will be visiting every day!
