My friend who is 30 and has beautiful long natural coloured hair is worried about the shedding of her hair and thinks one of the causes could be that she took the morning after pill earlier this year. She said that it has happened before but not to this extent. She does not straighten her hair and a very natural person with healthy vegetarian (all her life) diet non drinker/smoker. She is under stress with work and other issues in her life but these stresses are not new as such. She has problems with her periods though mostly painful and sweating/feeling awful and this could be a factor but again she has always had this problem. I advised her that I would research this for her but cannot find research on the effect of morning after pill on hair loss. She has never used hormonal contraception ever apart from taking the morning after pill on two occasions-the last time being in the summer after being in India for a month... She is using special shampoo for treatment of hair loss but it is still happening.
She is not pregnant and is considering going on the pill. Any advice would be greatly appreciated..Can the morning after pill cause hair loss..?
Maybe the stress is starting to get her or her bodys changin every 7 years our bodies change but ive never heard of plan b pill causing hair lossCan the morning after pill cause hair loss..?
I don't have an answer to this question but having suffered (still suffering) similar would be interested to know if anyone has any info. My hair loss started 3 years ago after taking a morning after pill, it has suddenly intensified again after taking another. Is your friends hair loss just from her head or is other body hair also affected?
The 'Morning after' pill has never been linked with hair loss. Dunno who came up with that one.
