Are you taking better care of your hair than you ever have? Treating it like it was made of the finest, most expensive fabric? Handling it with care, only to feel betrayed when you continue to see extreme breakage and overall poor hair health? If you feel that you have addressed your hair issues thoroughly and you are still experiencing extreme breakage and shedding, it may be time to turn to your doctor.
Several months ago, I began taking extremely good care of my hair. I washed it weekly, deep conditioned, kept it moisturized and wore many protective styles, however, I was still experiencing more breakage than normal. I exasperated myself with tons of research and trying just about every product and concoction I could get my hands on, but nothing was working. At the same time I started having cramping pains in my lower limbs that began to worsen, so I scheduled an appointment with my doctor.
My visit to the doctor revealed, that not only did I have an iron deficiency, but that I also had a severe vitamin D deficiency. My doctor informed me that these types of deficiencies are common and that they can in fact contribute to the hair breakage I was experiencing. She placed me on a iron regimen for a year (which I am still currently on) and a vitamin D deficiency regimen for 14 weeks.
Within a few months I started to experience less breakage. I haven't changed my haircare regimen at all, yet the overall health of my hair is continuing to improve. So, if you don't believe that what you eat, or maybe even what you "should be" eating affects the health of your hair, I'm here to tell you, that it can and it does! So, get your fruit and veggie servings in and all of your daily requirements for that matter. You might just see a difference in your hair too!
