In reply to Amy. Ask your pharmacist not your Doctor. Doctors get very little pharmacology in med school. But pharmacology is all pharmacy studies in graduate school.

In reply to Bonnie Lou. Yes you can dye your hair if taking Coumadin. I am on blood thinner for life and dye my hair.

In reply to tcfrankie. I’m currently on singular and Zyrtec. I’m having an awful time with hair loss. It seems like you are taking singular too. I’m going to go off these drugs and see if it makes a difference. If you Google it up it doesn’t mention hair loss for those 2 drugs.

On 3/26/2021, My mom and I had the Pfizer Covid-19 vaccine. My hair and my mom’s hair started falling. On 4/23/2021, my mom and I had the second dose. My hair is gone by 80%. My mom hair is gone by 75%. What can we do? I don’t want to wear a wig.
Why I had the second dose of the vaccine if I knew what was happening? Because I was more afraid of getting the Covid-19.
I have been massaging my scalp with Avocado oil, Coconut oil, Tea tree oil, and Argan oil. I am waiting for result. Any suggestion?

Some of my problem I believe is through genes but I have taken synthroid for longer than I care to admit and in 2005 I had thyroid cancer. I have tried the makeup on the top of my head, sprays, toppik as it is very thin. The back of my head is ok. My problem is my hair is mixed with white, gray and blonde and all wigs or wiglets don’t look natural color for me and I have tried the bangs but I wear my hair toward the right side so bangs aren’t for me. I have tried wigs but they are all so full with hair that it doesn’t look natural with my hair. I am 72 but really want something that looks natural on the top to blend with my color. Any help?

I have been taking Naproxen for migraines religiously for the past nine months…that is about the time that my hair started falling out. Along that about that ssme time, I was diagnosed with MS and placed on Copaxone shots 3 x per week. The makers of Copzxone asure me that they have never had anyone complain of hair loss. If it is Naproxen, will my hair grow back once I stop the medication? I have always had a beautiful, shiny, full head of hair and now if I don’t find what is causing my hair loss, I will be bald within a couple of months. My hair is coming out by the brushful every week and has gotten dry and brittle. Please tell me what I need to do to find out what is causing this to happen.

Hi my question is this: I have been on sertraline for 20 years and never had a problem with hair loss until now so I am not sure that this is what is causing my hair loss, but in the last 3 to 4 months I have lost so much hair, I went to my pcp and he did blood work with some abnormal results but my vitamins, minerals and thyroid are fine. I am a 61 year old woman that is about 5 years post menopause. Please help!,!!
