Hair loss is a

symptom of hypo thyroid. Armour would help your hair, not hurt it. If the doc

told you that, I would wonder about them.

Saw Palmetto.....160mgs. will also

block DHTs conversion, why not try that first. I think

nne uses that too????

Absolutely look at the thyroid. If it's not working correctly the ENTIRE

metabolism is not working correctly, and that also includes the endocrine

system. This is why it's best to deal with the thyroid issue first.

Loosing hair on Armour thyroid is sure a new one on me. Did one of those

know-it-all

dumb-as-a-box-of-rocks pesky doctors tell you that? If so, smack 'im up side

the head.

1/2 the hair I lost due to RAI/$ynthCrap (synthroid) came back because of

Armour...
