The Trichologist Podcast | Ep 04 The Truth About Inflammation and Hair Loss

[@cmml22]

I've tried everything. Started shedding rapidly at 18 then got cancer at 21 and when my hair came back it wall all thin and diffuse. Derm told me it was male pattern baldness and chemo sped it up . I took finaseride for two years and ruined my body and mind. Took over two years to bounce back from that while staying on minoxidil but continuing to shed like crazy. Your videos made me realize I have diffuse alopecia areata that was exacerbated by chemo. I been massaging my scalp daily with rosemary oil and I dunno what changed but my hair has stopped falling out and it's been regrowing and hasn't look this good since before chemo 7 years ago. So I just want to thank you man, this problems been bothering me for over a decade literally . Btw I'm about to turn 30, you've changed my life.

Great!

[@momoso143]

Hey congratulations! That’s incredible and I’m sure makes you feel at peace right now. Was his advice to massage rosemary oil? What helped you with the rapid shedding because I’m going through the same thing, it happens day after day and I am lost at what to do :/ I’m a woman, does that matter?

[@cmml22]

@@momoso143 hello! My recommendation is figure out what triggers the shit (often times it's food and systemic inflammation). I've switched to a mostly meat based diet and it's helped with my gut issues and ultimately my hair (I think it's all connected ). Anyways if you have an autoimmune issue inducing hair loss your best bet is to sort out the underlying cause. The rosemary oil and massage helped blood flow and I think staved off further loss I still do it a few times a week. Another thing you can try (again if its autoimmune) is clobetazol topical steroid. But basically keep it really clean diet wise and then incorporate the massage and do it regularly you should feel the tightness and whatnot subside.

[@tanujashanti2]

A few things that actually helped to control my hair fall include: (1) I discontinued wearing hair ties because it causes tension damage. (2) I began massaging my scalp twice a week with liitleextra cocoonnion hair oil while bending over & holding my head inverted to allow blood flow to the scalp. (3) Covering my head while moving out to protect my hair from dust and pollution. (4) Using soft shampoo again from liittleextra only to cleanse my hair.

[@triedntru8049]

Go away, bot

[@Nitinpal68925]

Upon trying this cocoonniion shampoo over a week, this product began to show better outcomes in comparison to all other shampoo cleansers. Now, I’m experiencing zero hair fall problems and the smell seems very pleasant and my hair is growing gradually yet the product’s at the very least helping.

[@talhakhan842]

What i have learned from the video is that Get a proper sleep Reduce stress Find your blood type and eat according to it Wash your hair daily with a good anti dandruff shampoo Try to avoid food which causes inflamation Keep your gut healthy.

[@clairebeane3455]

I am gleaning so much from this. During the COVID shelter in place I managed to contract a nasty, nasty bout of pneumonia. I was sick for two solid months and had to be placed on heavy duty antibiotics. Then I had to work in an unfamiliar environment miles from home for two months and then I had to move out of city with little time to even think. It was madness and the stressors were insane!!! I had been dealing with minor hair loss for years, but never thought too much about it, but during this time I noticed extreme sebum build up on my scalp and had that potato chip sized peeling with all of the hair coming off with each “chip”. I was devastated. This is the first time I have heard a dermatologist or trichologist or frankly anybody even mention it. I have been slowly healing but still struggle with inflammation, which is what led me here. Thank you for your wisdom. I’m here for the long haul and have become a subscriber.

[@WilliamGaunitzTrichologist]

Indeed it is

[@kcarrot2002]

William I am a 71 yo female. I for sure have inflammation hair loss, my scalp itches a lot and I have hair loss on top and the sides and a little on the nape. I will say I have more hair loss on top and the sides. I will say you are the most informative hair specialist/Trichologist I have ever seen on KZbin and I appreciate that. I do not know my blood type but going off of your testing I determined I have the inflammation type. So I bought your shampoo and conditioner foligrowth, I do wash my hair every 48 hours. I have had some calming of the itching scalp and some decrease in hair loss but not completely. I’m confused about the FoliGrowth because on the bottle it says to leave on overnight, but I think I n one of your other videos you say to rinse out after so long. My last question is should I also be using the DHT BLOCKER? On your website for the inflammation hair loss it wasn’t shown to purchase. I’m very grateful to have found you on KZbin. I am so hoping you see this and will answer my 2 questions😊

I understand completely. Prayers for you .

[@venetiadavisrice6331]

Please be encouraged. Pray and ask Jesus to do a miracle for your health and hair, to restore you! He can do it for you! I've had hair issues and still do occasionally, but have never lost it all, only shedding, bit it keeps being replenished because I constantly pray and thank the Lord for my "hair/health miracle", and He continues to keep hair on my head. It's thinner than it was because I'm older now, 65, started having a lot of shedding in my 20's. I believe people should rest their hair a lot, quit manipulating it so much, daily. Wear wigs, twists, styles that are easy on it; baby it, rest it. When you pray, the Lord will show you exactly what to do for your situation. I'm praying for you and others on this feed as well. Hair loss and health issues is devastating, exhausting, frustrating and even humiliating. Hang in there everyone! But please talk to Jesus about it, and ask Him to heal you! Only he can. Also, this Dr. Is excellent, on point, a God-send, an answer to prayer, a blessing--I thank God for his"free and helpful" advice! With his knowledge, we are getting a better understanding, solutions!

[@narrimanduplessis7334]

I have to wash my hair frequently because my natural oils cause the itching. The only thing to work in growing my hair back and controlling the itching is Certirizine (an allergy medication). just taking Finestride doesn't stop the itch. I have no obvious scalp lesions or flacks. the medicated shampoos didn't work. I'm confused. My father is bald, but he didn't itch aggressively. i am now gluten intolerant and gut sensitivity has gone through the roof.

Care about a healthy nutrition!

[@Sidera17]

I had no scalp or hair conditions until I caught HSV-1 at 30 and it "broke my immune system" like HIV. I immediately lost a third of my hair, and developed both constant scalp infections (seb derm and fungal stuff from being immunodeficient) as well as just hair loss from chronic high-level inflammation in my tissues from the neck up. Every derm I saw just dismissed my worries and told me to use a different product. I was finally put on IVIG for my body inflammation and even at a low dose, WOW did my hair grow back nice and thick. (I still got scalp infections all the time, but that just shows that the inflammatory component was more important as the cause of the loss than just infection). Due to all the medical upheaval in the pandemic, my immunologist quit, and the new ones decided they don't want to prescribe my IVIG anymore. I was yanked off of it and the hair loss began again, worse than before. Despite my best efforts, I can't seem to get it under control. I make as many lifestyle changes to reduce inflammation as I can, but truly, I think genetically some people cannot regulate their inflammation homeostatically without the intervention of medicine (probably because of genetics). I'm going to take this information in your video and continue to try to save my hair, but as time goes on and I can't get access to gammaglobulin anymore, I think my entire body is starting to fall apart! I wish more doctors explored the inflammation link as opposed to "it's stress" or "use Selsun Blue."

Use a brown linseed poultice on areas of operations as the pain is caused by scar tissue. Put a mug of seeds into a blender witth a mug of boiling water + a knob of butter and blend well. If too stiff add a bit more boiling water. When cooled spread over areas and covet with cling to keep in place or a silky fabric and leave for 8 hours each day for 5 days. 😇. Repeat if necessary.

Hi doctor!!! I have an important question.. How can I keep my hair while being on testosterone replacement. I feel terrible without my hormone replacement. But lost half my hair over the last 2 years from too high DHT. I bought your DHT blocker and I bought your topical melatonin and your topical other product.. do you ever recommend people using midoxicile. I hear it’s life long. My D3 level is 80.. ferritin 102.. so I’m good there

[@ArticulateArena]

Just saw pictures i took at 30 .. my hair was everything... thick growth, thick strands, long but slightly curly like a movie star...now my head itches non stop and i cant control myself from itxhimg it and ive lost hair because of it just a few years later. Its painful bumps too.. i dont want to go on if its not reversible

[@jewels8286]

Hey I've had a couple of bump in my scalp, and the Dermatologist said that there was nothing they can do and that's happing to alot of people. I got desperate and did some research on my own. This is what cleared it up for me. DIAL SOAP!!! THE ORANGE ONE!!!! when you wash your scalp, it's going to get more itchy, but trust me, it will go away, and then you will notice that it will go away and the bumps . Test a small spot . If this works, please let me know, but it worked for me.

I lose so much hair everyday. I have several very rare autoimmune diseases and I'm positive they are contributing to hair loss.... when my medication is controlling the conditions to some degree I don't lose much.... but when I'm flared I feel like I need a wig

[@WilliamGaunitzTrichologist]

I'm truly sorry to hear about the challenges you're facing with hair loss, especially in the context of rare autoimmune diseases. Hair loss can indeed be a distressing symptom, and it's not uncommon for autoimmune conditions to contribute to hair issues. Autoimmune diseases can affect the immune system's response, potentially leading to inflammation or other factors that impact hair follicles. Here are some steps you can consider to address hair loss while managing your autoimmune conditions: Consult with Specialists: Work closely with healthcare professionals who specialize in autoimmune diseases, such as rheumatologists or immunologists. They can help manage your underlying conditions and explore treatment options that may reduce hair loss as a result of flares. Medication Management: Ensure that you are taking your prescribed medications consistently to control your autoimmune diseases. Managing your underlying conditions can sometimes help mitigate hair loss during flares. Nutrition and Supplements: Discuss with your healthcare provider whether supplements or dietary changes could be beneficial for managing hair loss and supporting overall health. They can evaluate whether you have any nutrient deficiencies that may be contributing to hair issues. Stress Management: High levels of stress can exacerbate autoimmune conditions and may contribute to hair loss. Consider stress reduction techniques such as mindfulness, meditation, yoga, or counseling to help manage stress. Hair Care: Use gentle and nourishing hair care products that are suitable for your hair type and scalp condition. Avoid harsh chemicals and excessive heat styling, as these can further damage your hair. Wigs and Hairpieces: If hair loss is significantly impacting your self-esteem and quality of life, consider exploring wigs or hairpieces as temporary solutions while you manage your conditions. Many options are available to match your desired style. Support Groups: Connecting with others who have autoimmune diseases can provide valuable emotional support and insights into managing hair loss while dealing with these conditions. Consider joining support groups or online communities. 🔴 Please visit these links: 🔴 Products: www.advancedtrichology.com/collections/all 🔴 Hair Quiz: www.advancedtrichology.com/pages/quiz 🔴 Amazon : www.amazon.com/stores/page/745026F6-B738-41B1-A97E-57C1966FC3C6?ingress=2&visitId=5085be25-b276-44a7-b805-a5803f4fcc65&ref_=ast_bln&_encoding=UTF8&tag=evolutionhair-20&linkCode=ur2&linkId=e56705584b86ccb7f1784f04d04bb180&camp=1789&creative=9325 🔴 Request FREE Virtual Consultation with William Gaunitz' Associate or Paid Consult with William Gaunitz FWTS share.hsforms.com/1bS5yt8jCR224QxCKmJ-cqQviu

Thank you for this video and all the information. I was diagnosed with scarring alopecia Lichen Planopolaris right before the pandemic. I had a bald spot in the middle of my head at the hairline and bottom of back of the neck. The doctor gave me cortisone injections and prescribed cortisone lotion. I couldn’t continue to get the injections because of the pandemic and was just unsung the lotion. This seem to be working where as the bald spots stayed the same size and there were no new spots. I got Covid in December of 2022 and a few months later my hair started shedding like crazy and I started getting more and more bald spots on the top of my scalp. The doctor is giving me injections monthly and I use the cortisone lotion. My head is so inflamed and itchy. I am desperate and am trying everything. I just started using an anti fungal cream because I read you can have seborrheic dermatitis along with the lichen planopolaris. I am on a blood thinner, as I has a heart attack in 2021, which they said was most likely genetic. My father had a triple bypass at 50. I am wondering if I can take your products if on a blood thinner. I was told to stop taking the fish oil when I started the blood thinners so I am thinking I probably cannot take the EFA. However, would I be able to take the Foligrowth pills. The shampoo and conditioner should not be a problem right. My scalp is on fire and none of the shampoos have really helped. I apologize for this lengthy message. Many thanks.

[@amybeear323]

Hi, I have LPP. And was just diagnosed this year it’s been a hard journey. My derm recommended the shampoo called “seen” it was made for inflammatory hair loss. And I also get steroid injections every two months. You’re not alone, and it definitely is scary. 🥺🥺

Hı doctor, Ferritin is 500 ng/ml. Can high ferritin levels cause hair loss. And Can tooth decay cause hair loss? Thank you.

[@chantalmarieee]

So I thought I had DHT issues until I watched this video. You literally described ALL of my symptoms. Do you treat virtually or only in person?

[@WilliamGaunitzTrichologist]

I’m glad I can help. I do both in person and virtual. My contact is in the channel link.

Hello. I just came across your video tonight. It was so enlightening. Great information. Something i noticed that you never mentioned, and that is hair breakage. My hair has been breaking non-stop, every day for the last 7 months. It came out of nowhere! I've lost at least 6 or 7 layers of my hair from SEVERE BREAKAGE. It is so short and thin. I always had a nice head of hair. I've been to 2 different Dermatologists, and one hair loss specialist. She says I have AGA. But she really didnt address tge breakage. She recommends oral Minoxidil and Clobesatal ointment. I refused the Minoxidil because of the dread shed that happens. I have been using the Clobesatal every now and then. I realize if my hair keeps breaking like this, i coukd go bald! Im terrified. Im stressed out. This is so alarming. Ive tried EVERYTHING! Please can you help me out?? Thanks in advance. By the way, im late 60's.

[@gutz1981]

I am somewhat convinced that when my crown started thinning 20 years ago started from inflammation, it was mostly part to be being cheap in having a tight ponytail I used elastic bands you get in the mail to tie it up and pull out a bunch of hair when I went to shower. In my panic, a doctor prescribed Monoxidile. I took it for long periods of time being told the shedding would stop and my hair would come back strong as I caught it early. But it only kept falling. I stop for a year or two and was told by a dermatologist my crown looked red and inflamed, but he did not say if that was the issue or gave me any treatment for the inflammation. I was not happy with the how exposed my hair was, started again and whatever hair was left over in the crown is now totally gone. I was concerned about the rest of my hair as now my temples thinned out, so I too Finasteried, did it for a year and the same small amount of hairs kept falling out, nothing got stronger. So I stopped after 2 years, and my hair has stabilized, yet I still have itching in my crown. I think I do have thinning hair, yet at 42, the front part of my head of hair looks good if I was truly balding. And since I have recently been diagnosed with eczema in different places of my body and steroid cream helped me a lot, maybe try some tiny bit of it on my crown and temple and see what happens then, cause nothing else worked.

[@concepcionblank6765]

Wow very honest information!

[@gleekskitchen]

As a licensed cosmetologist , i can tell you , the main two reasons for hair loss in the african american community are infrequent shampooing which creates fungal overgrowth which causes inflammation Traction alopecia from braids and hair extensions And you're right , when you try to inform people how to treat the issue , they push back 😳

[@theweb4deb]

That makes sense! How often for shampooing? 43:46

[@gleekskitchen]

@theweb4deb if you exercise and sweat heavily twice a week ,especially if you're trying to get a scalp condition under control , otherwise , at least once a week

[@rattylol]

Don't use conditioner especially not on your scalp and shampoo twice with a PH neutral or clarifying shampoo once per week or whenever you get a painful scalp. I used to feel like I had a thousand knife slashes in my scalp, now it's gone. I also used tea tree oil rubbed in scalp before shampoo sometimes.

MEANWHILE... use those root touch up sprays , directly onto your bald spots on the scalp....perfect...ps. use a mirror and do the massive large part at the back, where sleeping on it separates it...

My hair is thinning and falling like crazy. I have most of the symptoms of food allergies. My scalp doesn't flake and looks healthy and only itches ( it started 5 months ago) along with the rest of my body due to food allergies. My blood tests came back normal. Honestly I have no idea what to do. Any comments are very appreciated. God bless ❤️

Try dutasteride or finasteride oral minoxidil vitamins saw palmetto and boitin vitamins or topical finasteride and minoxidil from hims or manual tha do oral minoxidil as well try a ketoconazole shampoo as well good luck

[@direfulsky8350]

You should Get an IgG test panel to Discover which food is inflammatory to you. Ordinary allergy tests will not show this (IgE test panel). Good luck!

How do I find out my blood type now . They don't want to tell us

[@jorty.]

I went in Switzerland to Dr.Trüb who is a known expert on hairloss matter. He did a pull test with my hair and all. His diagnose was alopecia androgen and I got topical minoxidil. As I have other autoimmune diseases I was surprised nothing else came.out of it. Alopecia andro feels like there is an underlying issue to it instead of the primary cause... something must cause the hormones out of whack u less I misunderstood what alooecia andro means.

[@mariyahhani6305]

After wash hair with shampo My scalp get hurt and itchy dan got hair falls . Its really confusing

[@EliasAlucard]

I can attest that seborrhoeic dermatitis accelerates androgenic alopecia, like massively so. My androgenic alopecia began in the late 90s, I was 13 at the time. That's not normal. But anyway, I was snowing dandruff and got seborrhoeic dermatitis around the same time, very oily skin all over my scalp and face, had no idea that it was the same fungus causing both (let alone that it was a fungus). 2% Ketoconazole works, as does the Vichy Dercos series (salicylic acid, piroctone olamine etc.), and now I'm on finasteride, dutasteride, minoxidil and also using other stuff to treat my androgenic alopecia. It's important to eat right too, and basically shelled hemp seeds is the only source of fat you need, very useful to balance the omega-6/3 and hemp seeds have the perfect balance for those two inflammatory/anti-inflammatory fatty acids, and those two fatty acids are the only essential fatty acids you need; from those two, you can synthesize all other fatty acids. Aside from shelled hemp seeds, I also recommend eating soy, lots of soy (the so called "soy phytoestrogens", isoflavones, is great stuff). Now soy fat has a 7 times higher ratio of omega-6 than omega-3, so to maintain the perfect 3:1 ratio balance as found in hemp seeds, I recommend you add a little chia seeds to your diet. But while inflammation is a real contribution to androgenic alopecia, and a serious, proper diet is helpful, ultimately it's DHT that's the main culprit, so at the very least, finasteride, and even better, dutasteride if you can get it prescribed, and you should use both for best outcome; that way, you get both fast and slow, longer acting DHT suppression.
