    Gym supplements and shedding
    Hi all,

    I've been shedding solidly for the last 2 months, which is odd as I haven't made any changes to my hairloss regime. I initially thought it might be a seasonal shed (if they exist), however this has persisted for too long. The only thing I can attribute it to is the fact that I've started hitting the gym 3-5 times a week, taking the following supplements:

    Whey protein
    Casein protein
    BCAAs
    Carnitine
    Glutamine
    Betaine
    Beta-alanine

    Are any of these known to encourage hairloss?

    Not giving up
    Hitting the gym itself could potentially raise test in the body and therefore DHT thus causing more hair fall. It's a bastard, trust me, I lift and it's like hairloss is trying to rob me of everything I love.

    I went through the same thing. I stopped taking the supplements & I stopped shedding. I started eating boiled eggs to get my protein.
