I lost hair on MTX not all but it thinned on top especially. I had many side effects besides that and quit taking it after 4 months. My hair has stopped falling out even though I am on 15 mg prednisone. We all react differently.

I’ve lost so much hair, I had to have the shower drain professionally plumbed to remove a huge hair ball. I have sparse coverage now that is hard for me to manage and style, so I have cut it off quite short with hopes it will grow back. I want to stop the methotrexate completely as it lowers my immunities, too. Do I have to gradually cut it out or just quit it?
