1464587 tn?1307491605 s possible that the hair loss is related to or caused by fungus, and it sounds like when you are on Biaxin/clarithromycin, the hair loss gets worse. Hmmm. Cause==>effect? I also got very bloated when I had the systemic yeast infection, and your weight gain could be a similar symptom. Dunno. Lyme can often mess with thyroid function; I was put on thyroid supplements for a while, but once I began to kick the Lyme, my thyroid sorted itself out, so consider that too.
Avatar f tn While sleeping that pain got worse and so itchy and so become my hair, when I awoke the next day I noticed little red spots on the fontline of my scalp while brushing my hair it hurt terribly and sensitive to touch. The pain got worse to the point I couldn't wear certain clothes or use certain products on my skin cause they would burn. I have now I headfull of blistery sores also on the chest area still, my upper and lower back, the side of my face and my chin.
Avatar m tn Clarithromycin isn't the treatment of choice for any STD. However, it would effectively prevent most cases of gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, or nongonococcal urethritis (NGU). But not all. Antibiotics, including clarithromycin, have no effect on viruses and therefore cannot prevent herpes, HPV, or HIV.

Avatar f tn I've just got back from my doctor, I have an infected ingrown hair and need antibiotics. I can't take penicillin as I'm allergic, so he was trying to find an alternative. He has prescribed clarithromycin 500mg twice a day. He told me they are only harmful in the first trimester but NHS says that they should only be used as a last resort if there is no other medicine and the pros outweigh the cons. Anyone had this medicine and gone on to have a healthy baby? Thanks in advance.
Avatar m tn Hi in october i got a tickly feeling in my throat like a hair was stuck. This continued for a while the doctor wasnt concerned and said it should sort itself out, it didnt recently my uvula has swollen and it is touching the back of my tongue.
Avatar f tn So, had brief encounter with sex worker. I am a male and she a female, just for clarity and accuracy of response though I'm confident that this is irrelevant. In any case, I received oral sex lasting only a couple minutes then shortly after completed with handjob. Anyway, that night I had extreme regrets as this not something I regularly do, only once before. So in my anxious state, I thought it best to be proactive and see if I could prevent any full infection from developing.
Avatar f tn Low iron levels can cause hair loss. You might want to get that checked.

Avatar n tn I lost a ton my first pregnancy. I was taking OTC prenatals. This time around my doc recommended prescription prenatals and I haven't had any hair loss or breakage this time. And bonus, the prescription prenatals are free with Affordable Healthcare Act!
Avatar f tn Especially after combing my hair,there is a ton of hair in the sink. However my hair seems to be growing as fast as it falls out so I have thickness still. Someone told me to drink more milk and I find on the days that I do I see less shedding.

Avatar f tn I'm very early in my pregnancy and I've noticed some mild hair loss. I have a lot of hair so it's normal for me to shed but this is a lot more than usual. Anyone experience this during pregnancy? Or maybe its due to something else?
Avatar m tn I actually posted about this a month or so ago. I have hair loss that really started post Tx. My hair didn't grow hardly at all during Tx, than about 6 weeks post Tx it really started falling out, probably lost 50%. Everyone says it should grow back fine after 6 months post Tx. I figure it is the least of my worries. Looking for my SVR12 in 3 weeks. Hang in there.

Not planning to tell clients about treatment ,mostly due to fear they will not understand . How much hair loss should I expect?
Avatar f tn Is anyone else experiencing hair loss, I wouldnt say extreme hair loss. But everytime I take a shower or comb my hair, so much falls out. And it just scares me that by the time im done with thia pregnancy im going to be bald. Im 26w5d.
Avatar f tn 5w 5d and have been having major hair loss in the past 2-3 weeks.. Is that normal at this stage??
Avatar n tn But, every few years my thyroid just burns out, and I go hypo. When I do I experience extreme hair loss and brittle nails. For me, the animal based thyroid substitutes work much better when I'm in a hypo phase. Additionally, sometimes when I am not hypo, the medication I take for my Graves' just knocks down my T4/T3 levels so low that once again I start to lose a lot of hair.
524608 tn?1244418161 I start tx this Friday...I was wondering how bad the hair loss is. I have really long hair and I usually donate to Locks of Love. I donated not long ago so my hair is shorter than usual but still long enough to donate. At what point will I know if I will suffer significant hair loss....I'll would rather just cut off the rest and donate it before I let it fall out and get caught in the shower drain. Gator...
