Hair loss due to lower levels of iron?
I have been losing my hair since I was 11 years old (I'm 24). When I was in ninth grade, I fainted and the doctors told me that I had hypoglycemia and they recommended iron. Years later it turned out that I still had iron deficiency. I had my blood tests results and my hemoglobin is 11.80 g/dL and the MCH is 26.6 pg. My RBC are 4.44 x10^12 /L.
