MY HEMOGLOBIN IS VERY LOW , I HAVE ALWAYS HAD PROBLEMS WITH IT GOING UP AND DOWN. ONCE ABOUT 10 YRS. AGO WHEN IT WAS VERY LOW ALMOST ALL MY HAIR FELL OUT!
NOW THAT ITS REALLY LOW AGAIN ITS ALL COMING OUT AGAIN.
CAN ANYONE TELL ME IF ANEMIA WILL CAUSE THIS?

Hello that was my question. I found out that I have severe anemia about a year ago. I was told by my doctor that I have Iron Defiency Anemia. He found this out by doing a bone marrow biopsy on me. Through the bone marrow biopsy he found out that I didn't have a single trace of iron in me, and he didn't know why. He also told me that I am hypocellular for my age group. Which means that I have a low cell count. I am only 23 years old. And just recently within that last few months, my hair has been falling out. And now it's real thin. So I got online today to find out if that is because of my anemia. Because I have been have some pretty scary happening to today. But you may have answered my question about the hair thing. I know it's been a while, sense you have posted. Have you found out anything else? I would deeply appreciate you input.
Thank You
