www.drerika.com | Medication is not the answer! Diagnosis is based on one blood test called tsh. The criteria are established by the American Endocrine Society and are not sufficient to identify all cases. Since our diet is lacking in iodine we run the risk of having low thyroid. You can’t take a supplement for low thyroid. You must get a prescription from your Doctor. Call my office and schedule a phone consultation if you are having difficulty finding a Doctor that will help you. http

how much does this cost? im 33 yr old woman. this gives me hope.
September 8th, 2010 at 10:10 am
@mi13estrellas FUE is 4x the cost, does not harvest that much hair and can waste donor hair. the only reason to do FUE is in a male that wants to have very very closely cropped hair and has significant density, minimal hair loss, and is willing to spend upwards of 8 to 10 x the cost for a ht but still cannot shave his hair completely down.
September 8th, 2010 at 10:52 am
@beezwaldo no sorry. the patient does not live in dallas and has not responded to my contacting her.
September 8th, 2010 at 11:26 am
@Hektor7788
Dr. Lam what is the difference between FUE and the other method ? In what cases would one choose one a little more over the other?
do you do both methods?
what would you suggest if i wanted to add more fullness to my top
September 8th, 2010 at 12:10 pm

Hey… I’ve been trying to find a doctor that does hairline transplants or lowering and so far the only one I found was is beverly hills. I live In st. Louis. Can you tell me about how much this procedure costs without insurance ? Thanks. Great job.
September 8th, 2010 at 1:35 pm
they should go back to normal after stopping. In fact, 57% of side effects will stop if you continue. obviously, people on the Internet are claiming that they don’t.
September 8th, 2010 at 1:41 pm
on propecia i was reading the side effects:decreased sex drive, impotence, itching, rash, swelling, testicular pain. are most of this side effects permanent or take a long time before they wear off?
September 8th, 2010 at 2:39 pm
i can’t give you medical advice. however, that is on the younger side and you have a very very high chance of having an unnatural result in the future because you would run out of usable donor hair in the future. you could possibly be a great candidate for propecia and rogaine. talk to your physician. visit my site hairtx [dot com] and read my medical treatment section.
September 8th, 2010 at 3:07 pm
im just turned 20 last August and my hair is starting to fall out and my hairline is receding i went to my doctor and she said it was MPB (because it runs in the family) could i still get a hair transplant?
September 8th, 2010 at 3:52 pm
I’m 22. I’ve already called to have an appointment to get one scheduled. How much did it cost you and how long was the swelling there? Was the swelling bad to the point where you couldn’t go out in public?
September 8th, 2010 at 4:18 pm
yes, so long as you are probably over 30 just to make sure that you are not truly a MPB sufferer.
best,
dr. samuel lam
September 8th, 2010 at 5:04 pm
I am a male who has had a big forehead since childhood. I’m wondering if you do this procedure for men that are not suffering from MPB.
September 8th, 2010 at 5:30 pm
i had a HT that looks like this girls. It was a FUE, where they pluck individual hairs out. After 6 days it was completely unnoticeable. My hair was even shaved down to a one. and after a week all the scabs where gone and noone had a clue, they just commented how short my hair was. Its been 9 days since and i feel good. this transplanted hair will stay there til you die. i still use rogaine on the other parts of my head where the rest of my hair might go.
September 8th, 2010 at 5:51 pm
si yo puedo hablar espanol. i speak pretty good medical spanish but cannot talk to someone outside of that. so you should be fine.
September 8th, 2010 at 5:55 pm
Well, Im from Puerto Rico I know a little english, but if i fly to Dallas, in the clinic exist some person who speak spanish, for some question that i can’t do in english, and can help me in the translate ??? Please let me know .Thanks
September 8th, 2010 at 6:14 pm
no, you do not need rogaine afterwards for female hairline lowering. rogaine is really only for someone who is losing their hair. this woman was not losing hair. she just wanted a lower hairline.
September 8th, 2010 at 6:47 pm
It is true, after the surgery you have to use minoxidil or rogaine to see results?? You have to use, but is temporaly ?? Please let me know ahhh and you look so preety.
September 8th, 2010 at 7:13 pm
hair can shed but does not always do so. typically hair starts to become fuller after 6 to 9 months with a complete result by 12 to 18 months.
September 8th, 2010 at 8:10 pm
Hi. Just had my hair transplant a month ago and was wondering if you experience a lot of hair shaft falling out after the first 1 month. The doctor said it was normal, but i have not experienced much of that. Have you hair fully grown in yet? I look at it everyday with anticipation.
September 8th, 2010 at 8:57 pm
sorry, point #2 should read “which is harder when many high hairlines have a flatter appearance and you just lower them.”
September 8th, 2010 at 9:30 pm
@wbkzaldana My advisory about Armour is that it is a ixed-ratio hormone replacement, i.e., it assumes that a fixed ratio of T4 to T3 is perfect for you. One size does not fit all. A wise course is probably to work with your doctor on fiding a combination of T4 and T3 that makes you feel optimally well. If you are in menopause or have had any ovarian problem, you will not convert T4 to T3 efficiently. Consider a T3-only regimen in that instance. God’s speed.
September 8th, 2010 at 10:21 pm
@newton2013 Explain to your doctor that many labs took samples from any blood that came to their labs not designated as belonging to a thyroid patients, and from that set the lab reference ranges for “normal TSH, T4 and T3. In recent years medical journals have noted that many people undiagnosed with active thyroid disease were in the samplings that set the ranges for “normal”.
September 8th, 2010 at 10:47 pm
This is the most common sense I’ve seen on YouTube–or in most media sources–about thyroid disease. This woman should visit medical schools and lecture to medical students. They typically receive only 2 to 3 hours’ instruction on the thyroid, even at the most prestigious medical schools. Also many medical students are not taught to introduce hormone replacement in increments, rather than the full replacement dose all at once. A patient’s re-action to the sudden full dose causes undiagnosis,

great video!thank you Dr.
September 8th, 2010 at 11:53 pm
Thanks for your post, I’m just learning more and more about this. For the supplement you talked about, is it better to take 1 pill of 50 mgs or 3 to 4 pills of 12.5 mgs throughout the day if you have major hypothyroidism?
September 9th, 2010 at 12:43 am
How do I find a doctor who will treat me with t3?
I got as far as using armour, but my body and mind are not happy.
Doc only pays attention to TSH. I got online tests done on my own,
showed free t4 and t3 at bottom of ‘range’. Cortisol tests showed me my cortisol levels are freaking out. I cannot find a doctor who recognizes any of the information I have found… Where do I find wise doctors?
September 9th, 2010 at 1:22 am
I was recently diagnosed with hypothyroid and placecd on synthroid. after a month i asked to swtich to amour, a natural version. now i am having very bad acne and and dry skin. i have been on armour for 1 month and it is progressevily getting worse. how can i correct this. im 26 and have always had mild acne but this is way worse. pls help.
September 9th, 2010 at 1:53 am
thyroid hormones suck in any form – armour, synthroid, levoxyl, levothroid, eltroxin cytomel. None of them work well and only relieve partial symtpoms and usually create additional problems. I hate thyroid disease, its a death sentence.
September 9th, 2010 at 2:51 am
I suffered for 7 yrs. with all the symptoms of hypothyroidism..but because my lab work was “normal”, I did not get treatment until my thyroid stopped functioning altogether! I have noticed some improvement after 6 weeks on Synthroid, although my hair feels dry and straw-like. I have since done more research, and am convinced that combination therapy is better than T4 alone. I am going to see about adding T3, and take evening primrose oil supplement to improve the problem with my hair.
September 9th, 2010 at 3:32 am
I think I have it but my doctors are saying Im in the range. My tsh last checked was 3.34. Im just at the border line so my dic wont diagnose. I have heart palpatation headaches, etc.

@PlatnumEyez
As for adrenal fatigue that’s a completely different disorder, though it may have similar and almost exact symptoms it doesn’t have any similar causes to hypothyroid, and definitely in the case of hashimoto’s thyroiditis
September 9th, 2010 at 5:45 am
@PlatnumEyez
For hashimoto’s thyroiditis (which causes hypothyroid) there is only one thing you need tested which can be tested by blood. Because antibodies use the blood for transport in your body all they have to do is test for hashimoto’s in your blood. If you don’t have hashimoto’s then other methods will be needed to test it, though most people with hypothyroid got it as a result from hashimoto’s
September 9th, 2010 at 6:18 am
just use coconut oil for thyroid
September 9th, 2010 at 6:19 am
I do have it….I took several other tests and it showed up as underactive. I also have adrenal fatigue which goes hand in hand.
September 9th, 2010 at 6:47 am
Levothyroxine is used to treat hypothyroid (under active thyroid) not Hyperthyroid. I’m medicated on levothyroxine because of hashimoto’s thyroiditis
September 9th, 2010 at 7:42 am
@PlatnumEyez
If your TSH levels are okay and you don’t have hashimoto’s in your blood either than you don’t have it…………

@ilikeyoutub07
You have a goiter just get Iodine
September 9th, 2010 at 9:25 am
I’ve been loosing hair on random spots for a few years, and have had anxiety and alot of mental fog. ive started taking sea salt for iodine, and recommended food for h.pylori (garlic, cranb..). I might feel a little better alreay. Im also going to try to remove chloride and chloramine from my water that i drink and shower with, since ive heard they also “indirectly” can affect the iodine levels in the water or body and hurt the thyroid. I have a strong belief that i can get rid of my problems.
September 9th, 2010 at 10:02 am
im 18 and i have thyroid problems i think.. lower part of my throat is swollen and i feel pressure inside my throat.. feels like a lump. . also I feel really tired alot.. and sleepy.. and sometimes i feel cold for no reason. I started working out..once i workout i feel really bad and supertired after. im so scared..
September 9th, 2010 at 10:48 am
i feel exactly like that.but i am losing weight and my doc thinks its my thyroid?Anyways i can ix my thyroid so i can gain a lil weight back?
September 9th, 2010 at 11:31 am
I was given synthroid today but I looked it up I line and said it causes hair loss. Also I read that the iodine is hindered by the thyroid, Not about not given enough. What do you say?
September 9th, 2010 at 12:23 pm
god i wish we had doctors like her in the uk our doctors dont help at all and it is so undertreated here, the only option i have is to take levothyroxine cuz thats all thats available my life is shit n i would rather be dead tbh i had a over active thyroid to begin with and that was bad and the doctors fucked me up and stopped my throid from working altogether
