I started taking Saw Palmetto supplements about 5 months ago in addition to my regular multi-vitamins, and MSM which I have been taking for several years now.

Well, in the last week, my shedding has been uncontrolable. I've noticed a tremendous increase in the number of hairs I shed each day. Someone PLEASE help. This is causing me much stress and concern :(

Thank you.

I don't think it's fair to assume that the cause of your increased hair loss the past week is due to saw palmetto supplements. (Besides, the stress from your aggrivation won't help alleviate the hair loss). Have you been under lots of stress lately, mental or physical? Perhaps you need to re-charge and restore your natural defenses. It would help you and your hair...

Well then what is it?? Why all of a sudden this HUGE shedding and no sign of slowing down?? I am an actor, and my appearance is my livelyhood. I really need help.

Do you eat a lot of sushi? Like, several times a week? I read a news story that heavy metal contamination in certain ocean fish (salmon, especially) has been diagnosed in people after they went to their doctors complaining of hair loss.

HMMMMMMMMM.
started a regiman which contains saw palmetto and have had good results so far. Nothing great yet as it has not been that long but shedding has definately slowed down from BEFORE I was trying anything

YIKES


Since my last post I started shedding hair FASTTTTTTTTTTTT. I kept trying to stick it out thinking my body was readjusting but figured I'd be BALD by Christmas if I didn't try something different.
I stopped taking the saw plametto and within a few days th shedding is way back down !!!!!!!!!
