HELLO I RECEIVED STERIOD INJECTION D/T BACK ISSUES  I NOTICED MY HAIR WAS THINNING.  WHEN I WOULD WASH MY HAIR LITERALLY HAIR COVERED BY HANDS.  IT EVENTUALLY STOPPED BUT STILL LEFT ME WITH THIN HAIR. THEN I GOT ANOTHER INJECTION AND AGAIN HUGE HAIR LOSS RESULTING IN EVEN THINNER HAIR BUT STOPPED THEN THE NEXT AND WILL BE MY LAST INJECTION LEFT ME WITH ABOUT 75% THINNING. I AM STILL LOSING MY HAIR AND INJECTIONS WERE IN JANUARY. I HAVE READ THOSE THAT SUPPORT THE ABOVE SIDE EFFECT AND THOSE WHO DONT. WHERE CAN I GO TO FIND OUT THE TRUTH. FYI BY THE WAY WHEN I HAD MY SPINAL FUSION IN 2007 I ALSO EXPERIENCE HAIR LOSS AND WAS TOLD IT WAS D/T ANESTHESIA IT DID RESOLVE. JUST WANT TO KNOW WHY THE HAIR LOSS. I HAVE WAIST LONG HAIR AND HAVE ALWAYS HAD THICK THICH HAIR HAVE EVEN HAD TO HAVE IT THINNED.THANKS CVMB
Hi, I read history you provided. I got the concern for hair loss and hair thinning. You feel that the problem you have is due to steroid injection. But, I assure you that steroid is not responsible for hair thin and hair loss. On the contrary hair grows after steroid injection. So, consult the dermatologist and get investigated to find out the internal cause. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Chat Doctor.
