if you miss too many pills you could end up with an unintentional pregnancy and pull out your own hair! we shed hair all of the time some times more than others. usually this is hair that is in the" resting stage". while hair may seem to fill your brush and concern you this is not a sign that you are going bald. assuming that you do not have any nutritional compromise patches of baldness or any skin/scalp conditions your lost hair should regrow.
i have noticed increased shedding after discontinuing birth contol. is this hair loss permanent or will it regrow? . i was on the pill for 8 years (yasmin and yaz). i never had an problems with either prior to this. i have been off the pill now for a month - month and a half. two months prior to discontinuing my birth control i regularly forgot/missed a pill. im not sure if thats important but i thought i should mention it.
