Hair loss
Dear Stephen,
I’ve been treating lyme now for approximately 1 year. I’m a 26 yr old male who went off antibiotics 1 month ago and I am starting your herbal protocol soon. I’m doing really good and have recovered my health to 90%. One of my first symptoms and now one of my remaining symptoms is hair loss. I know it could be caused by a plethora of things. But with the assumption that it’s an auto-immune reaction and my body is attacking the hair follicles, will Japanese knotweed, with it’s immune modulating properties, help slow down this rapid hair loss? I didn’t have any hair loss until I came down with lyme. Do you have any recommendations or anything I can try to salvage and maybe even regrow? Thanks Stephen. You’re a blessing for many of us.

Stephen’s response:
Stephania can sometimes help generate hair growth. Lyme does cause, in some instances, hair loss – you are the 4th or 5th person I have heard from with that problem.
