Acupuncture/Woman - thinning hair

Expert: - 2/15/2006


Question
I am a 56 yr old woman, 222 lbs, 5'6".  I know I need to lose weight and am exploring how to go about it.  My most pressing issue is my thinning hair in front and on top of my head.  I am a regular user of Natural Progesterone body cream as recommended in Dr. John Lee's famous book.  Do you have any alternative recommendations?  Accupuncture?  Supplements?

Answer
Hello Chris,

    Always try to increase your daily exercise routine. If you have a clean diet, the use of 7-Keto and CLA may help reduce body fat and allow lean muscle mass to be maintained.
A consultation with a nutritionist to formulate daily meal plans.

Hope the information helps,
Dr. Brendon O'Brien D.C.
