Hi Folks,
Just trying to work out if this is diabetes, metformin, or something else, but I'm shedding hair like there's no tomorrow. It started not long after I was diagnosed, which is also obviously when I started metformin.
It's not a balding situation. I can tell because I have a ridiculous fuzzy halo of regrowth/baby hair happening at the same time. It's quite the beauty pageant over here...
Nevertheless, I am literally pulling out handfuls when I wash my hair and am constantly shedding all day... the vacuum is not amused. It's similar to post-pregnancy, for those that have had that experience... but seems to be going on longer ♀️
Anyone had similar experiences? Does it end, or should I be weaving myself a human hair blanket...
