Welcome @sbt54 to Connect. This community of patients, caregivers, and providers is committed to sharing helpful information with each other. That is a great way to learn. My name is Chris and I am a mentor for the group. Would it be possible for you to give us a little more information about your question?

Are you injecting Tymlos daily at this time? Did you begin to have facial hair growth when you started Tymlos? Hair growth after menopause is not unheard of. In fact, there is a topical ointment that can be prescribed to prevent hair growth as a result of menopause.

What do you do for this unwanted hair? Is your Doctor aware of your concern?

May you be healthy and whole.
Chris

Hello Chris,
I have been injecting Tymlos daily for 3 months so far. My other side effects (headache, insomnia) are slowly diminishing. I noticed facial hair in the past month or so. I finished menopause over 10 years ago. I am also experiencing some head hair thinning but that may be seasonal. As of yet, I have not tried anything for the facial hair. I'm wondering if it's from the Tymlos, and if so, will it revert after my 18 months on it? Has anyone else reported facial hair growth?
Thanks,
