Can diabetes cause hair fall?
I have been suffering with diabetes for 8-9 years now. I am 27 currently. My HbA1C is 6.7 at this moment and Fasting 80. My Blood Glucose is 154. I have been maintaining this level for the last 5-6 months. The issue is I am seeing huge hair fall - full grown 40- 50 hair strands fall off without even pulling. I am scared to even comb my hair. It is very scary to even look at the floor when I am done combing my hair. I see tiny hair growth but the falling of hair is more intense than hair growth. I am mostly losing hair in the centre parting. Is there a way I can find out what is the exact reason for my Hair Loss? If it is diabetes, how can I control it? Any blood tests to be sure of what the reason for my hair loss is exactly Please help I am just 27 woman, about to get married in a year. I do not want to go for hair transplant or fancy treatments. I want to go the medicine and lotions/serum way if possible.
