HAIR FALL SIDE EFFECT

[Fareena1904]

Hi as anyone experienced any hair loss side effect & what stages of the treatment did you notice?

As I noticed at a month later after ivf treatment when embryo transfer was on hold that fronts near temple had hair fallen.

Hi Fareena1904. I haven’t experienced this with IVF but I did have this problem years back when I briefly took birth control pills. At the time I decided my body just didn’t like synthetic estrogen and stopped taking it. I was worried when we started IVF that this would happen again but it hasn’t and I think it’s because what I’m taking now (Progynova) is naturally derived. I don’t know what meds you’re taking but I would suggest talking to your doctor to see if they can swap to an alternative and see if that helps. Good luck with your cycle.

Hi Rockpig it is a nightmare extent we all go through, hope not a permanent bald patch at the end of ivf 🤣🤣 x
