Do B Vitamins Alone Help Stop Hair Loss?

Have you had your thyroid and iron levels checked? They both play majors roles in hair breakage. There are so many factors outside of vitamin B that effect hair health and growth.

I was losing hair terribly for years with no relief. I thought for sure I would be bald by the time I was 30 - it was totally demoralizing.

Then - I quit taking the pill. Within 2 months I could actually see the small hairs of regrowth and within 8 months a really noticeable difference - like multiple people commenting on how thick my hair was looking and asking me my secret. It was amazing. Long story short I don't know if you're taking the pill, or any other meds, but you may want to try stopping anything and seeing if it helps.

Good luck.

Biotin helps with length and thickness 5000 ius a day and it helps speed up your metabolism and helps yours nails grow.

I have not heard of B Vitamin for hair although it is possible and it is good to take either way, won't hurt. As far as stopping hair loss, I recommend Biotin it is incredible for hair, and nails. If you do think you are loosing a huge amount per day, I would go to the Dr. and check your thyroid and iron, those play a significant role in hair loss. I used to have a thyroid deficiency and I would loose so much hair I almost got scared, but to this day I still loose a lot so I am not sure sometimes I think its genetic as well.

I actually had hair transplant surgery for the wedding, and along with it, tons of vitamins. One supplement that I started taking is Biotin; I know that it works because my nails are actually strong, for the first time in my life. But all I can say is that the combo of surgery, laser treatments, Rogain, vitamins, and supplements have made a huge difference in my hair. I used to have a part that was as wide as my finger, now it's just a couple of millimeters wide. Also, my friend started using Rogain when I had my surgery and she has had great success with it (we both use the men's version). After 9 months of treatment I can honestly say that both of us have results. Also, eating the right "hair" foods also helps.

Prenatal vitamins and there's also a vitamin that you can get that is SPECIFICALLY for hair and nail growth.

Pills arent the answer, pills are a substitute for foods, and the foods key in hair would be vitamin A(orange veges) vitamin E (fish oils). But yes if you have to take pills youll want to combo A E b6 and your metals

I went to the dermatologist for hair thinning as well and he recommended taking men's rogaine. My hair loss is caused by stress and by a medicine I can't stop taking. Have you visited your dermatologist yet? They can identify potential causes (ie. physiological vs behavioral).

Have your hormones checked…I have PCOS which is a hormone condition and it's caused me to loose over half my hair (luckily I had a lot but it's still so thin now) and I take meds for it. They don't really regrow the hair but it's stopped falling out as bad. I wish I had go ton them 3 years earlier which is when the hair loss started and very one told me it was stress or normal cycle changes
