I don't even know what was going on.

And I looked, I'm like, my hair feels weird, like thin.

I have very thick hair and of course hair, right?

And the ends were like straggly.

And I actually went back and looked at old pictures and I went...

Wow, like I'm assuming that's what caused it, but it happened for a while.

It wasn't like in the months that I was, you know, signing the, you know, going through my actual physical divorce, but you're right.

It was like maybe three to six months later, I guess, thinking back on it.

Sandalwood, like the oil?

Yeah.

Okay, don't go throw that in your hair yet.

It's such good news, and I think it's reassuring to a lot of people who are listening.

All right, I'm going to go through some of the questions, if that's okay, and I know we actually have a voicemail to listen to as well, but let me start with this one.

I spent my 20s going to multiple doctors and dermatologists and they all told me it was stress and poor diet.

I recently saw another derm who said the same thing.

Why do doctors keep dismissing this and what is actually going on?

Every time I hear that, and I feel like women hear it more than anybody else, right, in every stage of our lives.

Thank you for that.

As a doctor, thank you.

I'm 47 and perimenopausal.
