Can Premarin Cause Hair Loss?
I switched from enjuvia to Premarin for estrogen replacement 10 months ago and have noticed a loss in scalp hair. I am a healthy 55 year old with no medical issues. My hair has always been thick and coarse where now it is thinning and fine. Could this be a result of the Premarin replacement therapy?

Hello,
Certain drugs can cause hair fall during the initial days of usage. Consult a dermatologist and get evaluated. If the Premarin is confirmed as culprit, you have to find other alternatives.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
