Where did you read that hair loss is related to iodine supplementation?

Buist, NDOwner / Iodine Group

when my hair loss will stop?

Hi,I take Erfa and Iodoral (12,5mg) and since I started Iodine my hair loss started too, even worse when I was hypo. My ferritin is pretty good and my T3 too. I read that iodine cause hair loss and I wonder when my hair will stop falling...how many months since starting it..thank you

That link is referencing bromide detoxing as being the cause of hair loss. Have you had your bromide levels tested?

Hair loss can be linked to other things like hormones.

Astragalus can really help with hair loss.

Another herb? Whew!

You could also look into some liver support. ;-)

I can't test bromide, I don't live in US.

My hormone levels are OK. I feel OK except my hair loss...

Ok, that makes it more difficult. Then if it were me I would concentrate on supporting detoxing through liver, salt, magnesium and Vit C.

I've had horrible hairloss with iodine. It did eventually stop but it took

months. I also have relentless acne that I can somewhat control with evening

primrose oil.

My bromide levels always test slightly above the normal amount so I wasn't over

the top on bromide. I've been off and on iodine for years now.

I've only been on very low doses of iodine for the past 1.5 years (like 1/2

iodoral) and my most recent iodine test showed me with creeping up bromide again

so I'm about to raise my dose again. I expect to see hairloss and acne once

again. (A few weeks ago I tested this at 50mgs iodine for few days and my hair

within days looked and felt horrible. Hair was all over the bathroom floor) Went

off the iodine and it stopped.

I use all support protocols I can find but I honestly don't know there's

anything that can be done to mitigate it. You might try pulsing to ...i.e giving

your body a slight rest by every other day dosing.

I'm just going to tough it through and keep my hair well cut. I take a lot of

evening primrose oil (2 1g tabs AM and 1 1g tab PM) That controls the acne to a

degree but it might also help hairloss as it seems to stop some of the DHT

production. It's a pretty cheap supplement to experiment with.

Also am going to try moving my diet more into ketosis with low carbs, lots of

coconut oil. That also might help by simply keeping all the pathways functioning

more efficiently including the liver. There's a good blog about this on this

here http://perfecthealthdiet.com/?p=2479

have you considered raising your dose of Iodoral to 50mg?

Hi Lynn,

Do you take NTH? Are you hypo?

I tested my DHT and I have a normal level. I don't have acnea.I read that taking

iodine could give hair loss but after few months it stopped at some people but I

wonder how many months do I need to see less hair loss...

Thank you for the blog links, I already read them, very interesting!

You might test thyroid levels. Some folks find they have to increase thier

thyroid meds for a while. Astragalus can be a huge help though.

my thyroid levels tested 2 weeks ago (2 grains of Erfa + 6.25 mg iodine):

T3 5,81 values: 3,10-6,80

T4 22,13 values: 12-22

TSH 0,01 values: 0,27-4,20

after the test I raised my Iodoral to 12,5 mg and the hair loss didn't change.

I read that Astragalus is for inflammation; how do you know that it helps for

hair loss?

oh yes I've been on and off high dose iodine for years just not recently. I'll

be slowly moving it up to 50 mgs over the next few weeks and holding it there

for awhile until my bromide drops. If that doesn't do it I'll move it to 100mgs.

I have done that before and got bad acne and hairloss but it cleared up breast

problems.

I'm actually not 100% sure the acne and hairloss is from bromide...or it could

be bromide is promoting a DHT pathway. Dr. Flechas told me the hairloss should

eventually stop and most people actually find more hair but mine doesn't stop

totally.

And I do use selenium from lef. I'm now on 200mcg. I've tried raising and

lowering that but doesn't seem to affect the acne and hair problems.

A nutritionist friend recommended, cancer patients sometimes use it to prevent

their hair loss. If your selenium levels are high though, I wouldn't recommend

it.

What is NTH?

I do run slightly hypo sometimes...used to be worse but iodine cleared that.

Yes I tested my DHT also and it's normal.

I've had problems with cystic acne off and on my whole adult life. Off iodine I

have extremely clear pretty skin but on iodine it's always a mess. I'm 57 so

acne shouldn't be such a problem. The evening primrose oil and fermented cod

liver oil are the most helpful things I've found. (including rubbing cod liver

oil into my skin...sounds repulsive because of the smell but that goes away very

fast)

I've been experimenting and reading about iodine since this group started in

2006. So I've been on I at various high levels for long periods and always have

some degree of hairloss plus the oils change so my hair feels dry and flat. The

worst hairloss is in the beginning and then it tapers off but it's there.

This go around with iodine I'm considering using some of my estrogen in my

shampoo or making a hair leave-in tonic to see if that will help.

Now I stopped the selenium for a while because I read that oo much selenium can

raise the Antibodies

Too high of selenium can cause hair loss. Also a good idea to double check

multi vitamins and other combo type supplements for selenium content. Sometimes

folks can be taking too much and not realize it.

I have the same on and off cystic acne my whole adult life...have been doing

Iodine and yes my skin is bad...but it was bad before Iodine. I have no hair

loss...but have always felt my acne was due to imbalanced sex hormones...and or

stress. I will try the cod liver and evening primrose..because I am so tired of

the outbreaks and scars. I am 46 and peri menopausal too. I eat very clean..no

dairy, sugar or gluten..organic etc sigh

1/2 iodoral) and my most recent iodine test showed me with creeping up bromide

again so I'm about to raise my dose again. I expect to see hairloss and acne

once again. (A few weeks ago I tested this at 50mgs iodine for few days and my

hair within days looked and felt horrible. Hair was all over the bathroom floor)

Went off the iodine and it stopped.

anything that can be done to mitigate it. You might try pulsing to ...i.e giving

your body a slight rest by every other day dosing.
