Avatar f tn I haven't experienced it from neither Clomid nor Femara. I have not taken Gonal F, though. You aren't on any thyroid meds by chance are you? I know they can cause hair loss.
215752 tn?1278004771 I guess your hair loss was due to stress. This whole thing is very stressful, which is bad when you are ttc. Good luck to you, try not to stress. You are doing all you can and god will soon answer your prayers.
Avatar f tn the Femara can cause hair loss again along with other aches and pains.
Avatar f tn Hi, I'm sorry for the hair loss..I did want to reassure you that when you take prenatal vitamins, your hair usually grows in nice and thick and healthy. I know some REs recommend you take some while you're trying to get pregnant. Are you taking any now? I'm afraid I don't know much of your background..Still it's worth trying. All the best.
Avatar n tn Hi there - I have IDC breast cancer and Crohn's and have had monthly B12 shots for some 25 yrs. Luckily, I didn't lose my hair when on FEC chemo for breast cancer,as I had the cold cap treatment alongside, but it thinned enough that I could see my scalp on top of my head. 30+ yrs of steroids has thinned my bones significantly, so I was prescribed a bisphosphonate (Alendronate) alongside calcium (Calcichew) and Vitamin D3. My hair is a lot thicker now.
Avatar n tn I didnt get any response from any healthcare providers on my Tamoxifen/Femara question regarding weight gain and loss. Can anyone answer that question for me.
Avatar n tn I have been on 3 rounds of clomid and was pregnant on 50mg but lost my baby at 11 weeks. I have now been on Femara once and trying the second time uping my dose to 5mg. I ovulate fine on my own, but I am not producing large enough follicles. Is there something else I should be taking in conjuction w/Femera? We are currently using iui w/donor sperm.
5143114 tn?1364237535 In December, my gyno put me on Metformin 750mg 2 times a day. Then in January added 5mg Femara (days 3-7), also did that in Feb. Then this past month (March) she uped me to 7mg of femara (and still taking Metformin, too). My 21 day Progestrone levels for December was 2.87, January was 1.76, Feb was 7.87, and this last one was 9.82 She also did tested 4 other harmones on day 3 of my cycle, everything was normal, except the TSH which was .282, which she said was a little underactive.
1204794 tn?1300704113 Really? Hair loss? They never mentionned that as a side effect!!! How bad was it and was it after one cycle only? (5 days)? The only thing I've found so far is that Im tired and have had a nagging mild headache since I started but it's pretty mild non bothersome symptoms. For me it was for superovulation as I already ovulate.
Avatar f tn I have regular cycles. The doctor put me on metformin and femara (spell check) which I did ovulate on so thry say from my progesterone levels..but still not pregnant. Does any one knows what I could do to help me become pregro?
Avatar f tn Clomid gave me some really bad headaches, cramps, etc.....even hair loss! Yes, hair loss! With Letrazole, I had zero side effects!!! Best of luck to you!
Avatar f tn I was on Femara and Necon for 3 months to treat endometriosis. 2 weeks into treatment I started getting side effects like scary muscle pains throughout my body especially in my chest and legs, unable to concentrate and focus, memory loss, joint pain ,anxiety, rage, depression... the list goes on and on. Every time I would call the prescribing dr with a side effect he would tell me it is not from the medication.
Avatar f tn Low iron levels can cause hair loss. You might want to get that checked.
Avatar f tn I'm losing hair too. Not in clumps but I clog the drain once a week from my hair loss. And all my friends said their hair was so full and healthy during pregnancy and after lost some. I get a ball of hair during evey wash and its not normal for me also my scalp itches like crazy and I don't have bugs lol o had my husband check lol!
Avatar f tn It started freaking me out so my hubby looked it up and said the number one cause of hair loss in women is pregnancy...
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 It makes me depress everytime i see how plenty of hair i loss. I tried every hair fall shampoo but none of those worked. I don't wanna comb my hair anymore.
Avatar f tn Is Anyone experiencing hair loss during pregnancy I thought I was Going to have this really beautiful hair but is not working out that way does it mean that I'm going to have a girl?
Avatar f tn Ever since I got pregnant I noticed a lot of hair loss, my hair just falls like crazy! Has anybody else expirenced this?
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.
Avatar f tn On a 12 week treatment with peg , ribavirin and sovaldi should I experience hair loss ? I am a hairstylist with very long thick hair ,still planning on working . 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.
