Guest guest Posted January 24, 2000 Report Share Posted January 24, 2000 I appreciate your message as it gives me hope! I truely now believe that it is all connected somehow. We all seem to have night sweats, food allergies, IBS, hair loss, etc. If you put it all together one would hope for a solution.

Vicki > > I too, have rosacea, both facial and ocular and am experiencing hair loss. For me, it seems to be related to a bit of seb derm on my scalp. I have been using Nizoral shampoo once or twice a week. Fortunately, my hair is still pretty thick and long--not thin by any means. Strangely, when I first noticed my face and eyes becoming bothersome, I also noticed my hair coming out in handfuls. This was about seven years ago, and I didn't relate it at all to the other problems. I was also experiencing night sweats, so I thought it was hormonal. I started using a dandruff shampoo and the problem abated somewhat. I still wonder how much of my skin, eye, and hair problems are hormone related...

Guest guest Posted January 30, 2000 Report Share Posted January 30, 2000 Hey, About a year before I was diagnosed with cea, I experienced some hair loss. I remember being able to grab hold of my hair and getting about 5 loose strands at a time easily. I could do this all day long and get some loose hair about everytime. I could really notice in the shower from just washing my hair and ending up with strands on my hand and on the shower wall. This only lasted for a few months from what I can remember. I don't notice that kind of hair loss anymore. I also experienced night sweats. I will still have them from time to time. Janell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 30, 2000 Report Share Posted January 30, 2000 hey I've been experiencing hair loss for about the same amount of time as rosacea. I've tried bunches of treatments for both, but haven't had too much success with either. Since you're a woman, the propecia pill is out for you. That's the first thing a guy who's losing his hair should try. You might consider rogaine. Those two are the only currently approved FDA treatments for hair loss. You can get all the info you need about hair loss at www.hairsite.com or www.regrowth.com They're excellent web resources and have extensive sections and chat groups for women.

Guest guest Posted January 30, 2000 Report Share Posted January 30, 2000 Night sweats can be caused by many things, one of them being hormonal shifts. This can happen to woman well before menopause, in their late 30's, or even after childbearing. I developed rosacea at around age 40, but I had noticed some hair loss as well as night sweats before then. Fun, huh ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 30, 2000 Report Share Posted January 30, 2000 I don't have the night sweats, hair falling out, food allergies, or IBS, and my rosacea is pretty bad. However, I think my rosacea was possibly induced by my incorrect treatment of my skin when i had bad acne as a teenager, and by stress and bormonal changes when I was first married, and became pregnant. So it is probably different for different types of rosacea as the doctor who is writing the book about rosacea stated. It seems though, that there certainly could be an interesting connection between the sweats and onset of rosacea for some people.
