My hair has started to thin out because of thyroid

[Anonymous]

I lost my health insurance about 4 months ago and haven't been able to take my thyroid medication for a few months now (I take minor amounts for a minor thyroid imbalance). I'm going to get new insurance at the beginning of 2012 and I will be able to get the thyroid meds that I need to balance my thyroid levels out. Even though I have some thyroid issues, I've always lead a very healthy lifestyle and thankfully my thyroid hasn't really affected my weight...in fact, I have a very nice body (not being conceited I'm just trying to paint a picture of the situation). Also, I have a very nice face :) again, I'm not conceited, I just want you to understand what I'm working with. Problem is, because I haven't had access to my thyroid meds for a while, my hair has started to thin out :'( it's kinda "up and down" it will thicken back to normal and then thin/fall out again. I expect it to go back to normal once I get my health insurance back and get the thyroid meds that I need. My question is, If you saw a girl who had a very nice face and body but her hair seemed a little thin for a girl or like she might have some problems in that area, would you still think she's attractive? My friends/fam. say I'm overreacting but I know my own body and I'm not happy with my hair since not having access to my thyroid meds. What do you think?

I totally agree with martyfellow, it's sad that necessary medications are out of reach for some people and that some people even have to go without their medication because they cannot afford it or have no insurance.

I have a thyroid problem too, and it can be tough. Good to hear that it's not really affecting you much other than the hair. But that will go back to normal once you start taking the thyroid medication again. But I would not go off meds often, try to keep on them as much as possible, not having them can cause major issues.

I have had a thyroid issue for over 13 years now and I have been through so much.

Best thing to do is explain the situation to any guys you are talking too. The decent guys will understand, the one's that don't understand are not worth your time in the first place!

I experienced hair loss and researched the best vitamins to combat the problem. Then some one told me that a product named Reloxe included all the safe vitamins etc. that stimulated hair growth. I tried it and they were right! Worked in about 3 months. Reloxe Stopped me from having to buy 10 or more different kinds of vitamins per month.

I think the US is a dysfunctional country, depriving people of health and medicines they need to beef up their ilitary for endless colonial wars.

But to answer your question, any guy yu meet will be understanding of your situation. Sure the supeficial type guys will be turned off by yur hair but you're saving yourself grief by not having to deal with them

Of course I would think she is attractive.
