@melaniesandford18: Hair growth, check-in: month 3. I’ve gone over the main causes of hair, thinning and loss for perimenopause and menopause and this is my approach with a combination of red light therapy, a few of my favorite herbs, and a topical treatment. Here is what I’m doing: I am using red light therapy on my scalp on the areas. I wanna focus on switching off between my lower powered cap and my higher powered device, which isn’t really necessary for the high-powered device for hair growth, but I wanted to try out the device regardless. I do eight minutes with the cap and then every other day I’ll switch off with the high-powered device and do four minutes because it’s very powerful. Lemon balm and black seed I take daily. And I’m also doing a topical treatment which I started two weeks ago which includes castor oil, Blackseed oil and rosemary essential oil. I’m oiling my scalp twice a week. The main reasons for hair thinning during these times are: 1.) stress and cortisol signaling. 2.) metabolic stress and hormonal fluctuations.3.) decrease in ATP and cellular energy. Lemon balm targets, the stress of cortisol signaling. Blackseed oil, target, metabolic stress and hormonal fluctuations by helping to regulate the hormones and improve insulin sensitivity. And red light helps to increase ATP and cellular energy which help help helps to increase blood flow to the scalp and decrease inflammation as well as help to send signals to the follow goal that it’s OK to go into the growth phase again. This has been working for me so far. I am liking the result I’m seeing. The best results are going to come at month six so it does take time. I’m going to check back in in two weeks.👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 stay tuned. ##hairgrowth
