Yes, my hair is still falling out and the strands of hair I do have, (which used to be thick and healthy), are now thin and limp. Having other issues as well with Prolia. I am a month overdue for my third shot and am strongly resisting taking it again. I know all of the consequences of not continuing with it but I don’t care. Side note: no one ever told me before I started that I couldn’t stop! I feel scammed by Prolia. Waiting for the next step my “new” doctor advises. This whole situation is horrible. I feel like i’m between a rock & a hard place. Best if luck to you!

What a mess! I’m sorry you’re going through this.
Thank you for reaching out. I appreciate it!
Best of luck to you too.

Agree that hair falls out and once healthy hair is now limp and super fine.

I have been on Prolia 5 years and want off of it. NO ONE TOLD ME ONCE YOU START YOU CANNOT STOP! Hair use to be thick and healthy, not now. I want to find a doctor in the Columbia MO area help me get off of this!!

Agree!!! I was never told you cannot stop! I’m close to finding out where to go to start looking for wigs. My scalp is showing through everywhere. It seems so unfair for a doctor to tell you to go on a medication because it will help you and not tell you, you will have to take it for life no matter how severe the side affects. This has happened to me twice now in my life. I’m now petrified to take any new medication. And when I am suggested to take something new I look it up and they all say it can under some circumstances cause death! So all side affects are not supposed to be concerning because they are all dangerous in some degree! I don’t get it…..yet….I do get it. Talk about confusion.
