I never had that problem but now that I am on the pill I saw that one of the side effects is hairloss. Everytime I brush it I lose at least 10-15 strands. Will it stop? The pill has made my vv so much better. I am a little uncomfortable during ovulation. I am not regulated to the green pills so I have no idea if I am ovulating. Based on last month thouogh this should be the time for it. I don't want to give up the pill unless it will make me bald! Those of you with the hairloss with the vv by itself what do you do, anythin >> You mentioned loosing hair on the pill. I have had a problem with hair loss that goes in cycles. Sometimes I have a lot of shedding and other times it seems normal. I did notice when I went on the pill about a year and a half ago that I had a tremedous amount of shedding. I asked my OB about this and she said it couldn't be the pill that it wouldn't show up for at least 6 months. I don't know if I agree as it started the shedding instantly (unless there was some other reason for it.) It did improve after a while and I gave the pill up after 7 months because it was making my VV and I.C. worse. Of course it helps a lot of others, so if you think it's helping you there is a good chance that the hair loss will slow down or stop. I noticed a lot of medications list hair loss as a side effect too. Good luck to you! Darlene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
