Back in 2018/2019 I had 3 injections of Prolia. I became increasingly ill with each shot. I lost more than 50% of my hair. It took 2 dermatologists to figure it out.
Did you experience burning in your scalp or redness?
I did. Sometimes the burning was so bad I couldn’t comb my hair or move it from side to side.
The second endocrinologist I saw did a scalp biopsy, turns out Prolia triggered an autoimmune condition called Lichen planopilarus.
Seems Lichen Planus is a rare side affect from Prolia.
It’s the drug that just keeps on giving….NOT
