3,247+ hypothyroid women are quietly regrowing their hair with Foliara
I stopped counting the hairs in the drain about six weeks in. That was the first thing. The narrower part came later.

Finally — no biotin.

Four months in. My parting is narrower. I can feel the new growth along my temples when I pull my hair back — little soft hairs, the kind I haven't had since my 40s. Thank you for leaving the biotin out.

Two thousand dollars in supplements and this is the one.

I was skeptical — I've tried Nutrafol, Viviscal, Rogaine, minoxidil pills, rosemary oil, the red-light comb. On my second bottle the shedding has slowed enough that I noticed. That's saying something.

No iodine. No biotin. Safe with Armour.

I have Hashimoto's and take Armour. Every other hair supplement I've tried either has biotin that throws off my labs or iodine that flares me. This has neither. Finally — someone built a product for women like us.

Less hair on the pillow.

Taste is fine — slightly sweet, slightly earthy, not candy. I take them with my coffee. After two months I'm seeing less hair on my pillow in the morning. I'll stay on it.

This was written for me.

I needed to hear "this is formulated for you." Not for a 30-year-old with shiny Instagram hair. For a 63-year-old woman on Synthroid whose hair has been thinning since her diagnosis in 2009. Foliara gets it.

My stylist noticed before I did.

I noticed the regrowth before my husband did. Baby hairs at the hairline. My stylist pointed them out before I mentioned anything. Five months in and I'm growing my hair out for the first time in a decade.

Steady, not dramatic.

Not a miracle. A steady improvement — which is actually what I wanted. Three bottles in, my ponytail feels thicker in my hand. I'll take steady over dramatic every time.

Growing it out again.

I'd resigned myself to keeping my hair short forever. I'm growing it out again. It's been five months. My hairdresser told me to keep doing whatever I'm doing.

Why it works

Four quiet reasons your hair has been thinning — and what Foliara does about each.


You've been told it's "just menopause" or "just stress." The truth is your follicles have been fighting a stack of issues. Here is how Foliara addresses each one.

[IMG: DHT mechanism · botanical illustration]
— 01 —

Pumpkin seed oil quietly blocks DHT.

The enzyme 5-alpha-reductase converts testosterone into DHT — the hormone that miniaturizes follicles. PSO inhibits it. Not dramatically. Steadily. Which is what thinning follicles need to rebuild.

[IMG: Thyroid–follicle diagram]
— 02 —

Your hair loss is a thyroid story.

Hypothyroidism pushes follicles into resting phase early and too many at once. Hashimoto's adds inflammation. Perimenopause lowers estrogen. You've been fighting three things — Foliara was formulated for the whole stack.

— 03 —

Results arrive in the order follicles rebuild.

Weeks 4–6: noticeably less shedding. Weeks 8–12: baby hairs along the part and temples. Weeks 16–24: visible density, thicker ponytail, narrower part. We recommend 90 days minimum — the clinical study ran 24 weeks.

No biotin. No iodine. No interference.

Biotin skews your TSH and free T4 labs and causes a rebound shed. Iodine can flare Hashimoto's. Most "hair" and "thyroid" supplements have both. Foliara doesn't — one ingredient at the clinical dose, in a gummy.

Real results, real women

The whole formula

One functional ingredient. At the clinical dose. Everything else is just a gentle gummy.

Supplements for our age range are usually bloated with eight or nine actives — most untested, most interfering with something else you're taking. Foliara is the opposite: one hero ingredient, at the dose the research used, in a clean plant-based gummy base.

What's in each serving (2 gummies)

  • Cold-pressed pumpkin seed oil
    Austrian-grown Cucurbita pepo, organic, unrefined
    2,000 mg
  • Organic pectin
    Plant-based gummy base
  • Organic cane sugar
    2 g per serving
  • Tapioca syrup
  • Organic carrot juice
    Natural color
  • Natural pumpkin flavor
  • Citric acid, coconut oil

What's deliberately not in it

  • No biotin — so your TSH labs stay accurate, and your hair doesn't rebound-shed when you stop
  • No iodine — Hashimoto's-safe
  • No zinc, selenium, or "thyroid blend" minerals
  • No gelatin — plant-based (vegan)
  • No synthetic flavors, colors, or sweeteners
  • No dairy, soy, wheat, gluten, tree nuts, or eggs

Suggested use: Two gummies once daily, with or without food. Best in the morning — at least one hour after your thyroid medication to preserve the absorption window.

Begin your ritual

The first thing we tell every woman who finds us:
plan for ninety days.

The clinical study that set our dose ran 24 weeks. Regrowth is slow and steady — not dramatic. The 3-bottle protocol is where most women begin seeing the change they were hoping for.

Questions we answer most

The careful kind of questions.

Will Foliara interfere with my thyroid medication?
No. Foliara contains no iodine, no biotin, no soy, no calcium, and no minerals that interfere with levothyroxine, Synthroid, Armour, Tirosint, or NP Thyroid. Take Foliara in the morning with food, at least one hour after your thyroid medication.
I have Hashimoto's. Is this safe for autoimmune thyroid disease?
Yes. We deliberately excluded iodine (which can flare Hashimoto's), selenium and zinc (often already supplemented), and ashwagandha (an adaptogen that can worsen some autoimmune thyroid conditions). Foliara is a single-ingredient formula: cold-pressed pumpkin seed oil in a plant-based gummy base.
How is this different from biotin, Nutrafol, or Viviscal?
Biotin creates a rebound shed and skews thyroid labs — most endocrinologists recommend stopping biotin 72 hours before bloodwork. Nutrafol uses a proprietary blend with ashwagandha and marine collagen. Viviscal is marine-derived with iron. Foliara is simpler: one mechanism (DHT inhibition), one dose, cleanly.
When should I expect to see results?
Most women notice reduced shedding within 4–6 weeks. Visible regrowth at temples and part line typically 8–16 weeks. Full density shifts usually 16–24 weeks. Commit to 90 days minimum — the clinical study ran 24 weeks for a reason.
What dose am I getting?
Two gummies = 2,000 mg of cold-pressed pumpkin seed oil — matching the dose used in the 2014 clinical trial on pattern hair thinning that showed a 40% increase in hair count over 24 weeks.
Is it vegan?
Yes. The gummy base is organic plant pectin, not gelatin. No animal-derived ingredients anywhere in the formula.
Will it affect my hormones or my HRT?
No. Pumpkin seed oil works locally at the follicle by inhibiting 5-alpha-reductase — it doesn't systemically change estrogen, progesterone, or testosterone. Foliara is safe alongside oral HRT, estradiol patches, vaginal estrogen, and progesterone.
I've tried everything. Why would this work?
Foliara's mechanism — DHT inhibition via pumpkin seed oil — is different from biotin (a cofactor), collagen (structural protein), or minoxidil (a vasodilator). Many women who've failed on B-complex, iron, collagen, ashwagandha, or adaptogens see results here because they were addressing the wrong mechanism. If it doesn't work, 90-day money-back guarantee.
What does it taste like?
Slightly sweet, slightly earthy, mildly pumpkin. Not candy. 2 g sugar per serving — most gummy supplements come in at 5–7 g.
Is there a money-back guarantee?
Yes — 90-day money-back guarantee on every bottle. If Foliara doesn't earn its place in your morning ritual, we refund you even if the bottles are empty. Email care@foliara.com.

A note from the founder

We built Foliara because no one built it for us.

I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's at 49. The fatigue I could manage. The weight I could work around. The hair — the hair I could not. I watched it leave me a little every morning, in the shower, on the pillow, in the brush, and my endocrinologist told me my TSH was "in range."

I spent three years and four thousand dollars on supplements before I realized the truth: the entire category was designed for a twenty-something with a protein deficiency. Not for me. Not for us.

Foliara is what I wish I'd had at 49. If your hair loss began with your diagnosis, it was written for you.
