hair loss after prednisone?
i took 60 mg of prednisone for 1 month for a kidney inflammation. i tapered down for months and finally have been off it completely for a few weeks. i did lots of natural things and really had no side effects- my face did get puffy when i was tapering, at about 30 mg but that's gone now. and my lip hair came in fuller but it's pale blonde so it wasn't too much of a bother
however, suddenly my hair is falling out like crazy. i took advair for many years (only 1/2 dose) and didn't connect it with my hair thinning until i started reading this site. i weaned myself off advair and noticed soon after that my hair loss in the shower was minimal
then i went on the prednisone and i was still fine. has anyone noticed hair loss after stopping prednisone? will this stop after a while?
