Answer 1

I'd eat More leafy greens such as spinach, green lettuce, broccoli, also try whole grains... there much more easy to digest than prenatal vitamins (which makes you nausea sometimes) I took prenatal vitamins for 5 years.
Drink Soy Milk helped me. After i had my 2 children i was slowly losing some hair. I drink 1 cup soy milk daily & it helped me.


Eat a Soybean, Grow More Hair?
A group of Japanese researchers says that a special soybean can halt hair loss and promote new growth.
Scientists at Kyoto University used genetic engineering to add an anti-hypertensive substance to soybeans. They believe the substance may promote hair growth by expanding blood vessels and promoting circulation.

Here is one daily dietary example that will maintain optimum hair health:

Breakfast: The most crucial meal of the day for our hair as follicle energy levels is at their lowest point. Some form of “complete” protein (complete proteins contain all the essential amino acids) is essential at breakfast. Meat, poultry, fish, eggs and milk all provide complete protein in varying quantities. Poached or scrambled eggs on high-fibre toasted bread, juice, or a high-fibre cereal in skim milk/soy are an ideal start.
Morning Tea: A piece of fresh fruit, juice or water to hydrate the hair and skin. Most of us love our “morning cuppa” of coffee or tea, but consume them in moderation. Coffee, tea and alcohol are diuretics and dehydrate our body cells. Additionally, excessive coffee consumption may lead to a lowering of oestogen levels in women, whilst the tannin contained in tea is known to decrease nutritional iron status.

Lunch: Lunch is the next most important meal of the day but the easiest to overlook. A protein (seafood/chicken/meat) and vegetable pasta or risotto, or turkey and salad sandwich on wholemeal will fuel our body for the afternoon. If you enjoy salmon as a filling or with a salad, crush and consume the bones, as they are an excellent source of calcium.
Afternoon Tea: Sliced raw vegetables preferably, or fruit. Avoid eating bananas or nuts at this time because their digestion time is too long to assist hair follicle function.

Dinner: This is the least important meal for hair follicle energy levels. Consume a light meal of some form of complete protein with steamed vegetables or salad. Fruit salad or a low fat yogurt if you enjoy a dessert.
Supper: Warm skim dairy or soymilk with a piece of wholemeal toasted bread. This combination will usually help to give us a restful night’s sleep, prevent the “midnight munchies”, and sustain protein levels for our body to utilise.

Answer 2

Prenatal vitamins are also good because they also contain B Vitamins such as B6 and also other B vitamins such as Pantothetic Acid and Insoitol to name a couple of them. I take prenatal vitamins for my hair but found that it has also helped my skin and nails. I've been taking them for almost 7 years now. I buy mine over the counter at my local Wal-Mart and yes I checked with my dr to see if it was ok since I have never been pregnant and she said it was.

The other thing that could be causing your hair to fall out is a possible hormone imbalance such as due to a thyroid condition or a syndrome called Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome. To learn more about PCOS check out: http://www.pcosupport.org

Pls see your dr to have this evaluated to see what could be causing your hair to fall out.
