Hi im an 18 year old male who has been on lexapro for about 6 months i had very thick hair before and now am thinning greatly all over and it does not follow mpb. I have read hundreds of accounts describing the same symptoms. Obviously this is awful and i am wondering if i get off lexapro the right way if my hair will be restored.
Hello. Yes, lexapro can indeed cause hair loss, although it is one of the less common side effects. Naturally, if you quit it, your hair will go back to normal.
