Default Hair Loss

Has anyone else noticed that their hair fell out on Atkins?

About 3 months after starting the diet my hair starting coming out.

The rapid hair loss continued for three more months (to today).

I now have noticeably thinner hair and my scalp is showing along my part (i.e., not on the part itself but next to it where the hair would normally cover it).

Since I"m a woman, I feel like a freak.

My doctor thinks its the diet. I've been taking all the supplements, so I don't see how it could be the diet, but that's what she thinks.

Has anyone else lost hair on Atkins?
