Thinning Hair in Women

I have had thinning/brittle hair for some time now along with unexplained weight loss I have been tested for thyroid amongst other things, all negative. My doctor won't refer me to anyone as I have no pain or lumps etc The hair problem just seems to be at the front ( of course, where it can be seen ! ) and at the moment resembles candy floss. Not a pretty sight Anyone with this problem, advice welcome?

Same here - I blame the menopause for this.

I'm trying Viviscal at present with some slight success. The makers say that you need to be taking it twice per day for six months to a year before you will see noticeable difference. At present I am in my fourth month of usage and I have to say that it will need to be successful as it is very expensive. Good luck!
