Can taking Florisene, used to maximise hair growth, cause the lymph nodes in the neck to swell? I'm a 43 year old female. 12 weeks ago I started taking Florisene, which I bought online from Amazon, as my hair was thinning on top. 2 weeks after that I noticed 2 painless lumps on the right side of my neck so went to see my doctor who said they are mobile swollen lymph nodes. These could have been there before taking Florisene but I'd only just noticed them. I told him I was taking Florisene and he said that I could continue to take them if I felt they were working, which they are, but he wanted me to have a full blood test anyway which included thyroid and glandular fever and all tests have come back normal. Unfortunately I then caught a chest infection which my doctor prescribed prednisolene steroids, as I'm asthmatic, to clear it and they worked a treat. He thought the infection could have been the cause of the swollen neck lymph nodes but as they are still swollen 3 weeks after finishing the steroids my doctor has now requested I have a CT scan just to be sure. I'm now waiting for an appointment to come through. I was contemplating coming off Florisene to see if the lumps go down but am a bit reluctant to break the course, 3 months left to go, as they are working and my hair has now stopped shedding. I've looked on loads of website chats for side effects of Florisene but no-one has mentioned anything about swollen lymph nodes so am assuming they are OK. Is it just a coincidence? Otherwise I feel completely well and have no other symptoms.
