I have visited a dermatologist who has told me it has nothing to do with diet and is just from the stress I experienced and told me not to expect hair growth until 6 to 9 months.

I visited a Medical internist who said it was due to weight loss and the fact that my diet wasn’t the best when my father fell ill for the five months. I was extremely exhausted and experience several panic attacks and fortunately. But fortunately the stress has alleviated some wondering why the hair has not resumed?

I had my TSH levels checked and they were normal. I also had my T3 and T4 thyroid levels tested which were also normal thankfully recently by an OB/GYN who just put me back on Sprintec, which I’m afraid due to the different progesterone will continue with the hair shedding and thinning. She said the progesterone should not matter, but while I was on Sprintec I still had loss of hair, even after the major stress of my father onset dementia tapered off and just have my regular stress that I’ve had for years with no hair loss due to Anxiety.

I have had wild adverse reaction, meds I took in my 20s that I stopped that I attempted to take in my 30s I am unable to take. I take it all off and experience lack of urination. I never look at side effects of medication. I was told by the physician at the time that this is only cause and people 60 years old and older but it happened to me. I became super hyper when I took a Zyrtec. Cipro cause me extreme euphoria and drowsiness to the point my coworkers call the fire department. I am not on any medications I would interact with Sprintec.

Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated.

I’ve been dealing with us from most a year.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated thank you so much.

Tnx

I got slack with the pill a few months ago for like 2 weeks and stopped taking it for that small period. I doubt that caused my hair loss, but i suppose along with my stress – it may have contributed as all my tests have come back normal…………When i mentioned the pill (as i reckon is has worsened my dermatitis) my dermotologist and my doctor and the 2 natropaths i’ve seen just seem to not acknoledge it….

Can someone please tell me if they suffer from these synptoms too ?
Thank you.

I’ve been off the patch since August/07 and noticed light shedding in Oct/Nov and most recently more excessive shedding. I’m only just about to visit my GP for some insights and thought of browsing online to see if there were any questions I should ask when I came across an article on here about BC affecting hair loss even after you’ve discontinued birth control. This was certainly news to me, I’ve been on various method of birth control over the years and had stopped last fall, I never knew something like this could happen….. especially from stopping a method of BC.
My hair is still in pretty good shape, with styling no one can really notice anything. I’m the one that sees all the hair on my shoulders in the shower or stuck between my fingers when I put in some styling product. I even noticed a bit of my eyebrow hair is falling in the sink *shock*, not something i was expecting.
Anyways, off to read some more!
