It is good for you to get tested, you are very young. and this is just starting. Many people on this forum would not even see hairloss here.
When I got lead toxicity , I lost all my hair . And when I use chelators now, which I do once a year. for 3 months. I lose most of the hair and it looks crazy. It is very depressing . Hair grows back. But just to tell you
When I use EDTA DMSA. for a month. and when lead goes into the blood. I get grey beard, grey hair and it starts falling out by chunks. IN 20 days it is gone.
And as long as lead is circulating hair does not grow. this is all related to metalothionine. Since it is zinc, cysteine histidine selenium copper. And when lead is in the blood , it just uses up all of those.
When lead goes down, hair grows back, takes 3 months.
So this is to show you how hair works.
