Hair loss; PD symptom or medication side effect, or just age?

[Jean Mellano]

I am starting to lose my hair; too much pink showing up on my hair part 🙁   I don’t know if this is my imagination,  a PD symptom, side effect from a PD med (Sinemet and Neupro), or jut plain age.

 

Has anyone else noticed hair loss since diagnosis? If so, do you think it  is a symptom or a drug side effect?

I am not on the meds yet but do suffer the hair loss. I learned recently that Head and Shoulders with zinc helps. Tried it and sure enough, from the first time, no fingers full of hair coming out in the shower! She said this seems to work for women only, not men for some reason. It worked for me, so thought I’d share. Good luck! 👍

Thanks much Crystal.  I have done a quick google search and saw that some people suffered hair loss using this product.  So much information, so many contradictions online 🙁   But, there are also many who attest to the efficacy of the product.   No easy answers…

Maybe it’s like medications; good for some, bad for others. No there are never any easy answer. I agree.

Amen…
