"Since most of the reviews are from gals who have just recently gotten their paragard, I thought I'd post about my experience since I've had mine for 3 years. Everything has been relatively good with my paragard up until recently. I became a vegan last July, so I haven't been getting very much iron or zinc in my diet. Recently I've experienced  some pretty dramatic hair loss. After I shower I have a palm sized ball of hair left in the shower. My hair is falling out in chunks! I am 31 years old with no health issues. I have never had any issues like this in my life nor is this hereditary. I started researching copper toxicity and anemia as two possible reasons and will start supplementing! I may no longer need bc if I end up bald! LOL"
