Has anyone experienced hair loss when taking Tecifera or when they stopped taking it?

I take Aubagio and have for the past 7 months. My hair has thinned and is very fragile however I started taking Biotin with Keratin and I can see where my hair has gotten stronger and it's starting to grow back where it broke off.

I was losing hair each time I brushed it, and now for some reason it seems very dry and breaks very easy. I am now on Copaxone, will have to see what happens.
