@vball91 I was on Mycophenelate for approx 7 years and never lost any hair. I’ll check my drug book for side effects and let you know.

@becsbuddy - Several members have mentioned hair loss and are questioning it’s origin.
https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/hair-loss/symptoms
There are several ways in which hair loss happens: hereditary, stress, loss due to medications, hormonal, chemotherapy, and sometimes for an unknown reason.
All members can use/read all of the information from Mayo Clinic Connect. An easy was to access the information is to go to the bottom of any page on MCC and find the blue words MayoClinic.org (left-hand side of page. ) Click on it and the screen opens with an alphabet so you can choose whatever you’d like to read. Check it out!
