Could taking lexapro cause hairfall?
Patient: Hi im an 18 year old male who has been on lexapro for about 6 months i had very thick hair before and now am thinning greatly all over and it does not follow mpb.  I have read hundreds of accounts describing the same symptoms.  Obviously this is awful and i am wondering if i get off lexapro the right way if  my hair will be restored. Doctor: Hello. Yes, lexapro can indeed cause hair loss, although it is one of the less common side effects. Naturally, if you quit it, your hair will go back to normal.
