Has anyone experienced extreme hair loss? I always had long thick hair and i would always lose a bunch in the shower but now it is to the point where my hair is thinning out and it's scaring me. I've been under immense stress lately so I'm thinking that has something to do with it. I also read if you're deficient in folic acid you can experience hair loss. I started taking a folic acid supplement about a week ago so I'm hoping it starts to help. Please let me know if you've experienced anything like this and what you did to fix it!

Yes! Especially after long flares or surgery. I use Biotin (a supplement sold at most grocery stores and pharmacies) and wash my hair with Nexium. It it supposed to stop hair loss and stimulate hair growth with a scalp treatment after shampooing and conditioning. My hair dresser introduced me to it and use to get me a kit for $50 that would last about 3 months. I now buy a larger kit on Amazon for closer to $40 that lasts almost 6 months. Check out Amazon first!
