Medications Can Cause Hair Loss

Common Side Effect Of Certain Meds

If you are a woman experiencing hair loss or hair thinning and you don’t believe the cause to be natural, talk to your Doctor about any medications you are currently on. Many medications have a side effect of hair loss, and surprisingly, most people are unaware of this. The unusual thing is that they are very commonly prescribed drugs. Thankfully only a small percentage of people experience that side effect, but if you’re one of them then you will surely want to know about it! Some of the common drugs prescribed which have a side effect like this are next.

Common Medications 

ACE inhibitors, antidepressants, beta-blockers, antifungal medications, anti-seizure medications, birth control pills, blood thinners, cholesterol-lowering drugs, thyroid problem drugs, Pepcid and some other stomach medications, HRT (hormone replacement therapy) drugs, vitamin-A based medicine, medication for Parkinson’s Disease, Naproxen and steroids. All of these drugs can cause hair loss or hair thinning, so if this matches up with yours then at least you can ask your Doctor to try switching you to another medication to see if it works better. If that doesn’t help, there’s always full volume extensions, like the ones sold at The Lauren Ashtyn Collection. 

Full Volume Extensions

For many women who are experiencing hair loss or hair thinning, full volume extensions are a terrific solution. They add fullness, length and volume to your own hair and are fully customizable with regard to color, cut and style. The best kind are the ones made from 100% real European Remy human hair, the highest grade of quality on the market today, and have a unique clip-in design that attaches securely to your hair in just seconds. The clip-in variety does not damage your real hair, and they come in a variety of different colors including multi-dimensional options. 

Easy Care

These full volume extensions are perfect for thinning hair, and with proper care can last up to 3 years. Care is simple, since you only have to wash them every 10 to 20 wears. Many places that sell them also sell products designed specifically for them, making things even easier. Use a moisturizing, deep conditioner free of parabens and sulfates. Gently brush out the tangles daily with a quality made paddle brush or comb out with a wide-toothed comb, to avoid impossible knots. Above all, if you must use heat, use a moisture, hydrate and heat protectant spray first. Nourishing oils are also good for your full volume extensions. 

Additional Information

In addition, if you happen to be suffering from unexplained hair loss or hair thinning, these full volume extensions can change your life by helping you to achieve the look you want in just minutes a day. There are many different causes of hair loss in women, including genetics and hormones. But whatever the cause, it can be devastating and emotionally tragic for most women, who depend on their hair as part of their attractiveness and lose much needed confidence.
