Birth Control
"If you have any sort of history of hair loss in your family, do NOT get this birth control. It&#039;s high in androgenic activity, which in turn can cause hair follicles to shrink and lead to hair loss. I have VERY thick hair, and I had been on Nexplanon until a little over a week ago when I got it removed. I had for it a little over a year, but the hair loss was so gradual, I didn&#039;t notice it until recently after taking a shower and realizing that my scalp was a LOT more visible than it normally is. Now, I&#039;m consulting with my GP and a dermatologist to get my iron and hormone levels checked to make sure there&#039;s not any lasting damage. I&#039;m also taking a hair/nail supplement, but I&#039;m told hair regrowth takes a year at least."
