Free Provillus Review

hi there
i am a 22 year old girl who is healthy apart from being overweight and having a borderline underactive thyroid ( i think my t level was 6)
i have always had thick, coarse, wavy hair. however, over the past year or so i have noticed that it has thinned out a LOT. i have no bald patches.. it just looks greasier.. duller and flat on my head. the crown of my head feels like it is more visible than before and there has definatly been a lot of thinning.. i think i have probably lost abut 1/4 of the thickness.. if not more.
my hair has been damaged due to over colouring ( i have always had highlights but in december 2006 i coloured it red.. then black.. then had it stripped and bleached to get it back to blonde). I have been really careful since, and even had 6/7 inches cut off as it was so delicate.
this doesnt explain the greasyness though. my hair doesnt feel more dry than usual.. but breaks more in my fingers. i just looks crap and thin. it also gets matted underneath for some reason.
i went to my Dr and she said its probably due to stress ( i have been suffering from depression and a bit of anxiety for a while now but my hair was never affected) when i went on about it she said it may be thyroid but with just a minor underactive thyroid problem ( and i take medication) this seems a bit strange!
in december 2006-jan 2007 i had a mirena coil fitted. since then i have experienced excess hair growth on my body (well.. more than b4) and spots. i read online that the mirena can cause hair thinning also.
i am considering having the mirena taken out. the pill never agreed with my anyway and im seriously thinking of getting a diaphragm instead. im trying not to stress but being overweight and having such thin, lank, weird hair is making me depressed lol!
please what wud you suggest?
i have read many accounts online about women experiencing hair loss with the mirena?
thanks x
