NuvaRing and Hair Thinning: Possible Side Effects & What to Do


Question
I have been using Nuva Ring for about 5 months.  Before that I was using nothing.  When I have used BC pills, I have used ortho tri-cylen lo with no side effects.  In the last 2 weeks I have noticed my hair thinning when I wash my hair.  More than normal.  Hair loss is not listed as a side effect but it is the only thing that has changed in my routine.  What do you think?

Answer
Hello Melissa,
First of all, I want to let you know that I'm not a medical professional so please check this out with your physician. In my opinion, yes, this could be a side effect of your birth control. Have you changed shampoos? Where did you look to find the side effects of the nuva ring? I would be interested in knowing more about this so please email me at DCHERYL51@yahoo.com
Hope to hear from you soon.
