Hello, I had about 8 months of acupuncture and herbs in an effort of achieving pregnancy, which was unsuccessful. However, now I’ve noticed the last few months my head hair seems to be thinning and falling out a lot, and also I have noticed black spots in my field of vision. I was wondering if all the treatments to get the blood flow better to the ovaries and uterus could have taken it away from my head/eyes causing a resulting problem? Or could this just be a new problem entirely that has nothing to do with it?
For reference I’m a 42 year old female, last year had multiple blood tests to check hormones and thyroid while trying to get pregnant and everything came out normal aside from discovering the MTHFR mutation for which I have switched from folic acid to methyl folate in my vitamins.
It's an older thread but I would still like to chime in and mention that it's possible that the thinning and falling out of your hair could be related to something else entirely, but it's hard to say without a proper diagnosis. You mentioned that you had blood tests done for hormones and thyroid, which is great. Have you considered looking into PRP hair restoration as a possible solution? I've heard good things about it and it might be worth exploring if you're interested. Here's a link to a clinic that offers it: https://onsitemedspa.com/services/prp-hair-restoration-in-bel-air-ca/. Hope you managed to find a solution to your issue.
