So this AM I had an appointment with my Neuro. I mentioned I am suffering from a lot of hair loss. It all starts when I started in TECFIDERA. The Neuro thinks it's more hormonal and not medication related. I am looking for anybody else who may have heard the same thing or have dealt with hair loss

Yes..when I was on Tec I lost hair for a couple weeks..then it stopped. This is a common side effect🙆🏻

my hair started falling out at an alarming rate. On a whim, I tried a shampoo that had kreatine . my hair stop falling out and started to grow back! It's worth a try.

My Neuro suggested 10mg of biotin a day.

I take tecfidera, but my hair was gone before that. In fact, sometimes I see the little I have grows very fast.
