I am experiencing hair loss, can it be an after effect of the hormonal pills that I am taking?

Sunny S asked:


I am taking the pill for six months to restore my hormonal balance, and two months ago my hair started falling out in handfuls. Can it be the pill? Should I stop it?
Two months ago, too, I started crying uncontrollably, but then it
went away and I am rather calm now, but have this hair loss problem.

      It could be the hormones that you’re taking. I would let your doctor know what’s going on so that they can assess whether to keep you on that particular medicine or change it to a different one. Good luck!
