What Are The Side Effects Of Levoxyl And Prolia?
Are there side effects with using these 2 drugs. Levoxyl and the injection of prolia which I get every 6 months. I was on Levothyroxine 137mg and no side effects. Since the doc put me on the levoxyl I have very little hair on my arms and legs, shave every 6 weeks and since March I ve lost about 3 quarters of my hairline. I m just a bit worried and wonder what I should. My levels are ok.
