Going on birth control..dont want increased hair loss...?

I'm 21 years old and I've never been on BC before (just condom use and such) but I'm in a serious relationship now and really wanna go on BC. See, even though I've never been on any hormonal BC, for the last 4 years I have been experiencing hair loss. Not sure why because I got blood work done and everything was normal (including my thyroid %26amp; hormones). Went to the derm. and she doesn't know what the problem is either.


I went to the OBGYN and got Nuva Ring samples..not hearing good things about the ring. So I'm thinking maybe the pill would be best? But then again that seems to be bad for hair loss too.


What would be the best choice for me? There are so many BC pills I dunno what to pick. And my OBGYN knew nothing about BCPs and hair loss of course.





Is there anyway a BC could HELP my current hair loss problem, maybe I have an underlying hormonal problem that wont come up in blood work?


What would be best for me? I was thinking Yaz?

Just to share : Been on minoxidil for about a year and a half and have not seen even the smallest amount of regrowth that i almost fell into depression.





My hair only started visibly growing after doubtfully trying out the various natural techniques to re-grow lost hair @ http://www.regrowmyhair.info





I would highly recommend this easy to follow step-by-step guide with pictures to anyone who is suffering from hair loss right now.





Anyway, its also a cheaper and effective way of re-growing lost hair compared to those unnatural ways which may involve harsh chemicals that may have side effects.Going on birth control..dont want increased hair loss...?
Find a doc who can advise and check with them for more info. Then you can always go back to your gyn and ask them for that type of pill/ring. I'm not familiar with hair loss, but in general, you can try a birth control and if you don't like it, switch. Just keep in mind that the first month of a new birth control, you won't have as much protection and will have to use a backup method of protection (ex: condoms, which your bf should be using anyways just because birth control isn't 100% effective anyway and offers no protection against diseas or infections.)
