Hi,
There is no such association of hair loss with spinal cord operation, however, one can have hair fall with some anti-tuberculous medicines like isoniazid, thiacetazone and ethionamide. As far as you are taking these drugs you will continue to have hair fall. You need to complete your treatment because its a reversible condition.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
