Does anyone know how to stop Lyme hair loss?

Hair loss is a persistent symptom for me (or a side effect??). As soon as I started Lyme treatment last September (Antibiotics), I started to lose my hair in clumps. I thought it was a reaction to antibiotics. However, I stopped them in December and switched to herbs (per my Llmd), but hair loss still continues. Not as much as on antibiotics though. Thyroid is fine. The only thing I am thinking is release of loads of endotoxins as soon as I started treatment. Anyone experience anything like this? Did it stop? Did the hair re-grow? TIA

There was a identical post a couple weeks ago.

I also made a post on this last week with suggestions.

Girlie,
All thyroid tests were done including antibodies.

Astroman,

Thanks. Just read it.

We’re your FT3 and FT4 in upper level of range?

Might want to check out Candida, that seems to work against my skin and hair in a bad way

Good luck

I’m still having quarterly Thyroid levels dropping and continuing hair loss that lately has been awful.
No idea what is the “root” of the matter, lol
I think it’s time for saliva testing and check out the cortisol levels
I also need to figure out what is causing extreme high levels of B12 and B6 (not supplementing at all) even taking the Methylfolate for my Hetero MTHFR
These levels didn’t become a problem until after treating Lyme

what is your gut health like - if you have lots of gut symptoms that is likely to be upsetting many hormone balances and this can cause a number of hormone-related issues such as
hair loss
menstrual cycle issues
appetite
sweating
weight gain / loss
etc etc
