Tory MP Nadine Dorries today told how she cries every morning after starting to lose her hair - and is “terrified” of it getting worse.
Ms Dorries, who has only recently had the Tory whip restored after an unauthorised trip to the jungle for I’m A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!, said she noticed her hair coming out during a television interview a few weeks’ ago when she caught a glimpse of the back of her head in a camera.
She told ITV1’s Daybreak that she was speaking out about the problem to highlight the fact that treatment is available to other women who may suffer from hair loss.
“When men go bald and when they lose their hair, what they tend to do is have a mid-life crisis and go out and have an affair, but what women tend to do is to actually go into their houses and lock the door, and there is help available, you can do something,” she said.
“The worst part is every morning you wake up and you look in the mirror, that actually does make you cry every morning.
“It’s a bit like your femininity is going down the shower, it’s going down the plughole.”
