    Default Iron supplements may help

    Hello
    I am a 44-year-old woman had a problem with noticeable bare patches along my centre parting and at the front of my hair and general overall thinning. After feeling totally depressed over it for a few months, I ended up getting an appointment with a dermatologist who diagnosed low ferritin levels and put me on iron tablets. Well, they took a good while to make a real difference but now, almost a year later, I think I can say that things are approaching normal again. I wouldn't go as far as to say I could go out with a centre parting but that is because the new hairs are still too short to give total coverage. Anyway, my advice is to try and get your ferritin levels up above at least 80 and that may bring things back to normal. Good luck.
