Suffering From Hair Fall. Using Contraceptive Implant. Blood Test Done. Can Marvellon Increase Hair Shedding?
Hi, my hair has been shedding a lot( for 4 years), since I came to London and I start using the contraceptive implant. A month and a half ago I went to a hair clinic and she told me I was going to be bald. After I went to a doctor and he prescribe me blood tests, that Im still waiting to know the results. In the emantime the doctor told me to start taking marvelon as contraceptive pill but my hair is falling a lot for a month already. Its falling like it never did, can marvellon increase hair shedding?
