What Natural Remedies or Supplements Will Help Reverse Eyebrow Loss?

Posted By Jasmine (Exeter) on 09/27/2016

Hi, I'm a 21 year old female. I have a bald patch on the last half one of my eyebrows. One half of the other eyebrow is getting very sparse and the hairs are also falling out. It seems just one half of both eyebrows is very sparse and one eyebrow an entire bald patch on the outer half of my eye brow. The doctor may not be able to help me as tests are normal-I'm not sure thyroid. I'm on antipsychotic medication now and it has started getting very bad since being on a high dose of it. I've had eyebrow thinning for years though. Is there any nutritional cure for this or herbal medicine or alternative treatment for this? I don't know the cause but not sure doctor will help me with this as he's quite limited with tests and not helpful. Should I see a holistic practitioner - not sure what you call someone who would deal with this. Please can you tell me if I should take supplements for this as it might be a nutritional deficiency? Is my medication causing vitamin deficiency or is it a side effect? What type of test should I get and who should I go to? Thanks.

I heard Dr OZ state that one sign of low thyroid is the loss of eyebrow hair. Hypothyroidism could be caused by low Iodine.
