Interesting thread. I had hair loss but it stabilized with time. My Doctor said it is not a side effect that is listed, but I suspect otherwise.. How I feel about it: Definitely, Yes a bit of vanity and Yes to a bit of gratitude that the Lanreotide is working on progression and symptoms..

@maeve115 I had shot number 6 and my hair has been falling out since the 3rd. My doctor said the same thing— not a common side effect. He said I could try minoxidil but only the topical and not the pill form. I was told I could try biotin but not to take it the week before my shot because it could mess with labs. I just had a physical and my PCP just ordered thyroid tests so I will wait for that.
