AyYiYikes Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 I’m a female on lithium about 4 years. I’ve noticed some hair loss over time, but now I’m developing more drastic hair loss. Bald patches in spots. I’ve already looked at many of the Med websites. A pharmacology site reports it may reverse at .75 level; mine is consistently over .8. It’s worked pretty well but I’m wondering if I should lower it to try to halt the hair loss. I know I have to talk with my pdoc, but wondering if anyone else has faced this. Other meds did not work as well or bad reactions mentally and I’m anxious thinking that it’s one or the other: facing less and less hair or feeling fairly good. Does minoxidil work? Thanks.
