hair loss
I am a 75 year old female who has been noticing after shampooing the past l2 times that much more of my hair is coming out than ever did before. I have been taking Osteo Bi-Flex and noticed on the box I bought yesterday a warning about hair loss which had never been on there before. How would this product cause hair loss? I do not plan to use the product for a while and see what happens. Do you agree that this would be wise?
I cannot recommend any changes to your current medical treatment regimen since you are not under my care. In general, we do not change patient's medications or supplements without contacting the prescribing physician. However, we can suggest treatments to help stop the hair loss process and restore hair.
Sincerely,
Dr. B.
