Hashimoto’s and Hair Loss

00:00:00
No I think most of you probably know that I have Hashimoto's and I was there actually one of the early diagnosis the
00:00:06
diagnosis of Hashimoto's Beck when the doctor told me I had it nobody I didn't even never even heard of it and in the
00:00:16
doctor know nobody's heard of it but everybody's got it that was awhile ago and he was right and
00:00:22
I had the classic symptoms actually what happened to me was I got pneumonia and I I was under a lot of stress and boom the
00:00:30
whole hit triggered a whole autoimmune cascade in not just Hashimoto's but celiac and other things and it's
00:00:38
interesting the two things that I noticed the most was actually the things I put on weight like immediately but my
00:00:45
hair started thinning and and I was suddenly finding that like I had large clumps of hair in my my sink and all my
00:00:55
brush and stuff like that and my eyebrows were going away this was years ago and you'll notice maybe you'll
00:01:00
notice I don't know my hair is kind of back I mean there was a point where you look and see my skull and my graphs were
00:01:07
gone so I mean it's it's just part and parcel to the hypothyroid aspect of Hashimoto's essentially everything slows
00:01:15
down your you hair loss can come from a poor liver function so thyroid slows everything down next thing you know
00:01:28
you're not getting proper liver function now you're not breaking down enzymes you're not breaking making proteins that
00:01:35
make your hair you could get it's and it's not a direct autoimmune attack on the hair
00:01:41
it's altering your physical it's altering your hormonal function in women it's hot it's altering your estrogen
00:01:49
receptor sites so where the estrogen gets into your cell starts not working right in both men and women it starts
00:01:57
honking up your your your livers ability to clear to produce vitamins you know biotin is like it really gets biotin
00:02:08
right when when they so liver produces B vitamins so it's not producing the vitamins clumped out
00:02:14
there's toxins it's toxic and the next thing you know you're not getting the nutrients and you start losing hair but
00:02:22
it's but it's it's not like a direct hit on on your hair okay so you can get alopecia if you've ever seen anybody who
00:02:30
has like specific chunks of hair that just come out all at once that's autoimmunity now now you you
00:02:42
don't get one autoimmunity in isolation now it's it's almost I've almost never seen it there's always like autoimmunity
00:02:49
of Hashimoto's and rheumatoid arthritis or Hashimoto's and celiac or Hashimoto's and get anybody steer or cerebellum or
00:02:58
Hashimoto's and get anybody to your pancreas and what you start getting blood sugar issues so you can have that
00:03:04
kind of cross reaction I haven't seen it I've seen it a number of times it's and where the person has had that alopecia
00:03:12
but I don't think along with Hashimoto's but I don't think that's what the question was asking I think this
00:03:18
question was asking his Hashimoto's causing eye hair off so indirectly yes indirectly it's one of those common
00:03:24
things it's it will it will you will go in the hypothyroid and one of the classic signs of Hashimoto's is minor
00:03:33
starts falling out I mean if someone Cassell's me I just had a baby no sudden everything it's just like I'm
00:03:39
put in long way my skin is drying out almost almost in Evolet you're gonna tell me and my hair is falling out and
00:03:45
by the way yeah thank you come in with Hashimoto's and cancer and you're getting and I you could help the person
00:03:50
with like they get rid of the cancer and you could get the Asha boaters under control but if the weight doesn't go
00:03:55
away and the hair flying out doesn't stop they always kind of considered that I didn't do a very good so it's an
00:04:01
important thing it's an important thing and and it can be certainly you know Hashimoto's yeah I'm here lost that is a
