    What i have learned from the video is that
    Get a proper sleep
    Reduce stress
    Find your blood type and eat according to it
    Wash your hair daily with a good anti dandruff shampoo
    Try to avoid food which causes inflamation
    Keep your gut healthy.

    I've tried everything. Started shedding rapidly at 18 then got cancer at 21 and when my hair came back it wall all thin and diffuse. Derm told me it was male pattern baldness and chemo sped it up . I took finaseride for two years and ruined my body and mind. Took over two years to bounce back from that while staying on minoxidil but continuing to shed like crazy. Your videos made me realize I have diffuse alopecia areata that was exacerbated by chemo. I been massaging my scalp daily with rosemary oil and I dunno what changed but my hair has stopped falling out and it's been regrowing and hasn't look this good since before chemo 7 years ago. So I just want to thank you man, this problems been bothering me for over a decade literally . Btw I'm about to turn 30, you've changed my life.

      Hey congratulations! That’s incredible and I’m sure makes you feel at peace right now. Was his advice to massage rosemary oil? What helped you with the rapid shedding because I’m going through the same thing, it happens day after day and I am lost at what to do :/ I’m a woman, does that matter?

    • @constipatedcow22
      @constipatedcow22 Рік тому +8

      @@momoso143 hello! My recommendation is figure out what triggers the shit (often times it's food and systemic inflammation). I've switched to a mostly meat based diet and it's helped with my gut issues and ultimately my hair (I think it's all connected ). Anyways if you have an autoimmune issue inducing hair loss your best bet is to sort out the underlying cause. The rosemary oil and massage helped blood flow and I think staved off further loss I still do it a few times a week. Another thing you can try (again if its autoimmune) is clobetazol topical steroid. But basically keep it really clean diet wise and then incorporate the massage and do it regularly you should feel the tightness and whatnot subside.

    A few things that actually helped to control my hair fall include: (1) I discontinued wearing hair ties because it causes tension damage. (2) I began massaging my scalp twice a week with liitleextra cocoonnion hair oil while bending over & holding my head inverted to allow blood flow to the scalp. (3) Covering my head while moving out to protect my hair from dust and pollution. (4) Using soft shampoo again from liittleextra only to cleanse my hair.

Then am using the 2% prescription ketoconazole foam every night. I'm noticing the amount of eyebrows falling out is a lot less than before. I think the whole keeping them free of any oils is making a big difference. @@Elementblitz

    As a licensed cosmetologist , i can tell you , the main two reasons for hair loss in the african american community are
    infrequent shampooing which creates fungal overgrowth which causes inflammation
    Traction alopecia from braids and hair extensions
    And you're right , when you try to inform people how to treat the issue , they push back 😳

      Don't use conditioner especially not on your scalp and shampoo twice with a PH neutral or clarifying shampoo once per week or whenever you get a painful scalp. I used to feel like I had a thousand knife slashes in my scalp, now it's gone. I also used tea tree oil rubbed in scalp before shampoo sometimes.

    I am gleaning so much from this. During the COVID shelter in place I managed to contract a nasty, nasty bout of pneumonia. I was sick for two solid months and had to be placed on heavy duty antibiotics. Then I had to work in an unfamiliar environment miles from home for two months and then I had to move out of city with little time to even think. It was madness and the stressors were insane!!! I had been dealing with minor hair loss for years, but never thought too much about it, but during this time I noticed extreme sebum build up on my scalp and had that potato chip sized peeling with all of the hair coming off with each “chip”. I was devastated. This is the first time I have heard a dermatologist or trichologist or frankly anybody even mention it. I have been slowly healing but still struggle with inflammation, which is what led me here. Thank you for your wisdom. I’m here for the long haul and have become a subscriber.

    I’ve been on painkillers for 20 years. I don’t take a lot but at least 1-3 every day due to multiple surgeries. I’ve been struggling with hairloss for years. What helps is minoxidil , raw gelatin every day and nutrophol. Massage and use shampoo for dandruff even if u don’t have it. It helps. As a firmer model, I’ve been told I’m beautiful my whole life and at 50 I look great but this hairloss is devestating. I’m fighting tooth and nail to keep what I have. No hair dye and I always made my hair blonde. Hang in there people. It takes time and PATIENCE but it CAN BE REVERSED!!!.

    William I am a 71 yo female. I for sure have inflammation hair loss, my scalp itches a lot and I have hair loss on top and the sides and a little on the nape. I will say I have more hair loss on top and the sides. I will say you are the most informative hair specialist/Trichologist I have ever seen on UA-cam and I appreciate that. I do not know my blood type but going off of your testing I determined I have the inflammation type. So I bought your shampoo and conditioner foligrowth, I do wash my hair every 48 hours. I have had some calming of the itching scalp and some decrease in hair loss but not completely.
    I’m confused about the FoliGrowth because on the bottle it says to leave on overnight, but I think I n one of your other videos you say to rinse out after so long.
    My last question is should I also be using the DHT BLOCKER? On your website for the inflammation hair loss it wasn’t shown to purchase. I’m very grateful to have found you on UA-cam. I am so hoping you see this and will answer my 2 questions😊

    I started losing hair with my restrictive eating patterns. It all began in 2020. I would eat no more than 500 calories a day and mostly avoided carbohydrates, which also caused inflammation from high cortisol, which in turn gave me acne and hormonal issues. Once I started improving my diet, things began going back to normal mostly. Oh, and stress was also a huge factor!

    I have been dealing with hair loss for 6 years now. And still, I'm being told it's just normal balding. But the itchiness of it isn't normal. I have to wash my hair frequently because my natural oils cause the itching. The only thing to work in growing my hair back and controlling the itching is Certirizine (an allergy medication). just taking Finestride doesn't stop the itch. I have no obvious scalp lesions or flacks. the medicated shampoos didn't work. I'm confused. My father is bald, but he didn't itch aggressively. i am now gluten intolerant and gut sensitivity has gone through the roof.

      Please be encouraged. Pray and ask Jesus to do a miracle for your health and hair, to restore you! He can do it for you! I've had hair issues and still do occasionally, but have never lost it all, only shedding, bit it keeps being replenished because I constantly pray and thank the Lord for my "hair/health miracle", and He continues to keep hair on my head. It's thinner than it was because I'm older now, 65, started having a lot of shedding in my 20's. I believe people should rest their hair a lot, quit manipulating it so much, daily. Wear wigs, twists, styles that are easy on it; baby it, rest it. When you pray, the Lord will show you exactly what to do for your situation. I'm praying for you and others on this feed as well. Hair loss and health issues is devastating, exhausting, frustrating and even humiliating. Hang in there everyone! But please talk to Jesus about it, and ask Him to heal you! Only he can. Also, this Dr. Is excellent, on point, a God-send, an answer to prayer, a blessing--I thank God for his"free and helpful" advice! With his knowledge, we are getting a better understanding, solutions!

    Hello. I just came across your video tonight. It was so enlightening. Great information.
    Something i noticed that you never mentioned, and that is hair breakage. My hair has been breaking non-stop, every day for the last 7 months. It came out of nowhere! I've lost at least 6 or 7 layers of my hair from SEVERE BREAKAGE. It is so short and thin. I always had a nice head of hair. I've been to 2 different Dermatologists, and one hair loss specialist. She says I have AGA. But she really didnt address tge breakage. She recommends oral Minoxidil and Clobesatal ointment. I refused the Minoxidil because of the dread shed that happens. I have been using the Clobesatal every now and then. I realize if my hair keeps breaking like this, i coukd go bald! Im terrified. Im stressed out. This is so alarming. Ive tried EVERYTHING! Please can you help me out?? Thanks in advance. By the way, im late 60's.

      I’m really sorry to hear about your struggle with this. It sounds incredibly frustrating to be so committed to a routine and still face these issues. 😞 Let’s break down some possible things to consider for your next steps:
      1. **Scalp Health**: The itchiness and acne on your scalp could indicate inflammation or sensitivity, which can sometimes be due to the products, the environment, or an underlying condition like seborrheic dermatitis. Using a gentle, anti-inflammatory shampoo (like one with ketoconazole or salicylic acid) might help calm the scalp. Reducing scalp inflammation can support hair growth, as a healthier scalp is essential for hair to thrive.
      2. **Reviewing Treatments**: Since finasteride and CG210 Forte have only given slight results, you may want to discuss with a trichologist or dermatologist about other potential treatments. Options like **low-level laser therapy (LLLT)** or **platelet-rich plasma (PRP)** injections can stimulate hair follicles, especially when other treatments haven’t been fully effective.
      3. **Gym and Androgens**: Working out intensely, especially if you’re lifting heavy or doing resistance training, can sometimes increase androgen levels (like testosterone), which may contribute to hair loss for people sensitive to these hormones. Keeping workouts balanced and avoiding certain supplements that might boost testosterone could help.
      4. **Addressing Stress and Mental Health**: Hair loss can take a toll emotionally, which is completely valid. You’re doing everything you can for your hair health, so be kind to yourself and reach out for support if you need it-sometimes even just talking to someone can make a huge difference.
      You’re doing a lot of the right things, and there may be just a few tweaks to make. 💪➡️ Please feel free to reach out to us at www.advancedtrichology.com/ for more guidance or if you’d like to explore more treatment options. Hang in there-you’re not alone in this journey!

This is what cleared it up for me. DIAL SOAP!!! THE ORANGE ONE!!!! when you wash your scalp, it's going to get more itchy, but trust me, it will go away, and then you will notice that it will go away and the bumps . Test a small spot .

      @WilliamGaunitzTrichologist  Рік тому +1

      I'm truly sorry to hear about the challenges you're facing with hair loss, especially in the context of rare autoimmune diseases. Hair loss can indeed be a distressing symptom, and it's not uncommon for autoimmune conditions to contribute to hair issues. Autoimmune diseases can affect the immune system's response, potentially leading to inflammation or other factors that impact hair follicles.
      Here are some steps you can consider to address hair loss while managing your autoimmune conditions:
      Consult with Specialists: Work closely with healthcare professionals who specialize in autoimmune diseases, such as rheumatologists or immunologists. They can help manage your underlying conditions and explore treatment options that may reduce hair loss as a result of flares.
      Medication Management: Ensure that you are taking your prescribed medications consistently to control your autoimmune diseases. Managing your underlying conditions can sometimes help mitigate hair loss during flares.
      Nutrition and Supplements: Discuss with your healthcare provider whether supplements or dietary changes could be beneficial for managing hair loss and supporting overall health. They can evaluate whether you have any nutrient deficiencies that may be contributing to hair issues.
      Stress Management: High levels of stress can exacerbate autoimmune conditions and may contribute to hair loss. Consider stress reduction techniques such as mindfulness, meditation, yoga, or counseling to help manage stress.
      Hair Care: Use gentle and nourishing hair care products that are suitable for your hair type and scalp condition. Avoid harsh chemicals and excessive heat styling, as these can further damage your hair.
      Wigs and Hairpieces: If hair loss is significantly impacting your self-esteem and quality of life, consider exploring wigs or hairpieces as temporary solutions while you manage your conditions. Many options are available to match your desired style.
      Support Groups: Connecting with others who have autoimmune diseases can provide valuable emotional support and insights into managing hair loss while dealing with these conditions. Consider joining support groups or online communities.

    The only thing that helps is leaving TCP antiseptic liquid overnight on my hair. It helps but doesn't cure. Neutrogena Clear and Defend it also helps.

    • @WilliamGaunitzTrichologist
      @WilliamGaunitzTrichologist  Місяць тому

      You’re so welcome! 😊 The idea of eating according to your **blood type** is fascinating, and while the science behind it is debated, many people find it helpful as a framework for making healthier food choices tailored to their bodies.
      Here’s a quick recap of what’s recommended for each blood type:
      ---
      ### **Blood Type Diet Overview**
      1. **Type O** (The Hunter):
      - Thrive on a **high-protein diet**: Lean meats, fish, vegetables, and fruits.
      - Avoid: Grains, legumes, and dairy as they may slow metabolism or cause inflammation.
      2. **Type A** (The Cultivator):
      - Best with a **plant-based diet**: Vegetables, grains, legumes, and fruits.
      - Avoid: Red meats and dairy, which may cause digestive strain.
      3. **Type B** (The Nomad):
      - A balanced omnivore diet: Meats (lamb, fish), dairy, and grains (except wheat).
      - Avoid: Chicken, corn, and lentils, which may trigger inflammation.
      4. **Type AB** (The Enigma):
      - A mix of Type A and B: Seafood, tofu, dairy, and greens work well.
      - Avoid: Chicken, corn, and processed foods.
      ---
      ### **Benefits of Eating Based on Blood Type**
      - Encourages mindful eating and avoiding processed foods.
      - Focuses on nutrient-rich, whole food choices.
      - Some report better digestion, energy levels, and overall well-being.
      ---
      ### **Is It Right for Everyone?**
      While the **blood type diet** may work well for some, others find success through general balanced nutrition. The key is to listen to your body and figure out what makes you feel your best! 🌟

      Hey there! 😊 Dr. Gaunitz often focuses on evidence-based approaches to nutrition and hair health, but the "Blood Type Diet" by Dr. D’Adamo is an interesting concept that many people explore. While some have found benefits from following it, scientific backing for blood type-specific diets is still limited.
      When it comes to hair health, Dr. Gaunitz typically emphasizes:
      - Balanced nutrition rich in vitamins and minerals essential for hair, like iron, zinc, biotin, and omega-3 fatty acids.
      - Targeted supplementation based on actual deficiencies, as revealed in blood tests, rather than solely on blood type.
      In short, if you’re curious, Dr. D’Adamo’s book might be worth exploring, but it’s a good idea to combine it with more personalized, science-backed nutritional strategies for the best results. 🌱
