Hyperparathyroidism and Hair Loss?

(male) Hey,

I wrote before and didn’t know if you missed my last question or just didn’t get a chance to answer it. To cut to the chase, is there a relationship between hair loss and hyperparathyroidism (and the removal of a parathyroid gland)? Blood tests also indicated that I had high testosterone levels before that along with high calcium. Surgery was 2 years ago. I’m just about 21 right now.

Thanks for your help

One of the symptoms of hyperparathyroidism is hair loss. I do not have experience about reversal once the condition is treated successfully. You are of the age where genetic hair loss may come into play here. Be sure that you get your hair mapped out for miniaturization, so that you can be sure that you are not also experiencing genetic hair loss. If there is miniaturization present, then is may be likely that the hair will not grow back.
