I have been having hair loss for the past 6 months which is getting worse and worse. I have about 50% of the hair I had before. My scalp is itchy and sore and it is driving me crazy. I have been to numerous doctors and no one can give me an answer. I have had my thyroid and testosterone levels checked and both were normalNormal saline flush. My reproductive endocrinologist tells me it is not from the medication. He says I should continue with the fertility treatments because getting pregnant will stop the hair loss. I am terrified if I continue with the treatments that I will go bald. I am anxious and stressed. Has anyone else experienced this or know anyone who has experienced hair loss with any of these medications? My gut tells me it is due to a fluctuation in hormones but the doctors are telling me I am wrong.
