Re: iodine initially causing accelerated hair loss. now many things accelerate hair loss. what can be causing this?

iodine balances hormones. losing hair has always been a possible feature of Iodine supplementation. lots of factors are involved. the loss should be temporary. or maybe youre finally doing what is normal for you under the circumstances of your environment.

your selenium should be selenomethionine only. this could be a copper/zinc imbalance or a copper deficiency due to too much oxidized copper in the body that cant be utilized.

hi trapper,

thanks for your post. yes, this is somethign that i have begun to think is also a possiblity. that since my hair stopped falling out because of finasteride, getting back on iodine has put my body back to the way it should be and now i react to things that should make my hair fallout. 

however, it still doesn't explain why everything seems to make my hair fallout now including things like sea salt or vitamin C. i was thinking about the copper that you mentioned. for example, something requring VIT C is being taken up. i forget if it takes up copper or not. i read something that takes up copper that i was taking but i forget what it was. hmm. 

how do you recommend I go about figuring out what this could be as I agree, it could be so many. like some tests or something.
