Type 2
Hi, I’ve been diagnosed since June with type 2 and roughly about 2 or 3 months before I noticed my hair
was getting a lot thinner. Then noticed a bald patch emerging. I used to have lovely thick hair and now its
thinning quite a lot. at first, I thought lock down ect as I’m 74 and hubby 81, we were in for over a year. But nothing
changed hair wise. It’s very upsetting for someone that used to have nice hair. Would it be diabetes ?
 
Much more likely to be either Thyroid prob or possibly stress. Get yourself to the GP surgery and get yourself checked out.
 
I did wonder if it’s stress related as it’s only started since covid. Thank you I will make a doctors appointment.
