i have had hair loss for the past 2 months. very depressing. the odd thing is that after starting pred @50mg a year and a half ago, i am down to 3 mg. it was only in the past 2 months that i started losing hair. my derm said it can happen even when tapering down dosage. anyone have this occurance? rogaine biotin and special weekly shampoo do not seem to work. i pray it stops.
