This is just a quick thread for anyone with thining hair who may be using SSRI's or anti depressants.

I have been taking lexapro a while for anxiety.I began to notice alot more hair shedding,to the point where I was leaving hair EVERYWHERE.
I did not even think it could be my medication causing this issue,but apparently hairloss IS a possible side effect.
So while it may be common sense to some,check your meds! I got off the lexapro and my hair shedding has ceased.
