Acne & Hair Loss

[ladybugs718]

I have been having problems with acne and my hair thinning for a few years now and every time I tell my dermatologist or OBGYN, they didn't seem too concerned, but its become a big problem for me. BCP helped, but we are planning on TTC starting in the summer, so that's not an option. Has anyone else gone through this? I used to have so much hair and now it is noticeably thinner and combined with my skin making me feel awful. If you've experienced this, what helped you?

I'm not positive about this, but I've experienced a little hair thinning recently and find it to be correlating with stress. The acne issue is not really there for me, but do you think it may be stress related? I've started taking a few supplements for my hair and I think it's helping some. Hope you can get it figured out though! It's certainly an alarming and frustrating problem to deal with.

Maybe try having your thyroid checked?
