[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm 52 and post-menopausal.  I ended up getting cortisone shots in my scalp.  It's the only thing that seemed to work.  I had my thyroid checked, taking multi-vitamins, Biotin, etc.  Made no difference.  I've done 2 rounds - shots every 6 weeks for 6 months.  It's not as thick as in my 20s but better than it was 4 years ago.  FWIW - I had a lot of problems finding good information on this.   Research is mixed on the shots but it's the only thing I found that made any difference. [/quote]

Do you have the name of the doctor you saw for this? I will ask my derm about this when I see her tomorrow. [/quote]

Following. I’m in my early thirties but have always had fine/thin hair. [/quote]

19:16 here.  I see Dr. Kaufman and Dr. Greene in Alexandria (father/daughter practice).  To the immediate PP, if you're hair has always been fine/thin, that might just be the way your hair is.  My hair is fine but, until the last 5 years or so, I've always had a lot of it.  My hairline was noticeably receding and my part (when I have one) was much wider.[/quote]
