Does anyone else suffer from anemia? I've suffered from this off/on for the past 10yrs now. Last year, my levels got down to the levels 8.6 which is not good I was on iron tabs 3x a day for about 4 months. My bloodwork then showed I was increasing about 1 point/month.
Anyway, I haven't been taking my iron at all since about Jan/Feb. The past few months, I've noticed alot of breakage. My hair seems to be drier (it's looking better with DC's though) and not to mention my body is tired. I feel like my hair is breaking or just not growing at the rate it was when I was more actively on my iron supplements.
Anyone else suffer from anemia? How does it/has it affected your hair growth? How much iron do you take? Can you notice a change in your hair when your blood levels are low?
