Yes -- some of the hormones that cause hairloss are a result of thyroid problems. An over-active or an under-active thyroid gland can cause a serious loss of hair.

A certain amount of hair loss occurs naturally. At any given time 90% of our hair is growing and 10% is dead ready to fall out and be replaced by new hair. Undiagnosed thyroid problems can result in excessive hair loss. Should you experience sudden hair loss, consult your doctor right away. Thyroid treatments can -- many times -- reverse the problem quickly, ending the hair loss.

Other hormones that cause hairloss are 'androgens' in men and 'estrogens' in women. If these hormones get out of balance hair loss can occur. Simply correcting this imbalance will most of the time stop the hair loss.

New mothers often experience some -- concerning -- hair loss. About 90 days after giving birth many women experience some hair loss. This is not something to worry about.

During pregnancy certain hormones reach higher than normal levels and the hair that should have fallen out remains in place. Once hormone levels return to normal -- after giving birth -- hair will fall out quickly and as the normal hair loss and re-growth cycle begins a new. The problem will disappear.

Testosterone is a hormone that transforms into a hormone know as Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) which, as we get older, tends to clog and kill hair follicles in both men and women. A drug treatment know as Minoxidil works very well against this hormone, unclogging hair follicles and allowing for new growth of hair. Long approved by the FDA (food and Drug Administration) it's used in products that promote hair re-growth.

Saw palmetto is a herb used extensively in Europe to shrink benign enlarged prostate glands. It has also been shown to inhibit the transformation of testosterone into Dihydrotestosterone (DHT).

The vitamin 'B' Complex has been shown to help achieve healthy hair. A lack of vitamin 'B' certainly encourages hair loss. Symptoms of a lack of vitamin 'B' are slow hair growth, split ends and hair loss.

Science realized just the right combination of all 3 elements (Minoxidil, Saw Palmetto and vitamin 'B') would create a potent cure for hair loss for both men and women.

It was also discovered that the most effective form of this aggregate would be one with both a topical solution for direct application to the scalp and as well an oral version (pill) to work internally.

Using this one two punch of a two pronged attack has prove very effective in fighting hormones that cause hairloss.
