Hair loss on Testosterone
« on: July 03, 2022, 02:24:28 PM »

Hi, not been here for a while due to other various family matters
My daughter has just started taking Tostran testosterone, and although she has had some hair shedding for quite a long time, since the start on menopause,it seems to have got much worse recently,
She has only been on the Tostran about a week, but hair fall seems to have got worse in that short time
I have been asked by her to ask if anyone else has this problem,
Also does the dosage make any difference
TIA

I haven’t noticed a difference with Tostran.
I did have time when I was shedding lots of hair a couple of years ago - my Oestrogen dose has been increased since then and I do take Biotin.

My hairdresser explained that if you are in a shedding cycle then you can’t really stop it.

Salad Thank you for your reply, has the oestrogen made any difference ,either way?
my daughter takes biotin too,as do i ,as i have had some hair shedding too, and although it stopped for a while started again recently,
Do you think Oestrogen helps with shedding 
It seems to be the Progesterone that causes it i think
