Re: Arimidex and hair loss???
Hi Pray
Yes, Arimidex can cause hair loss. It's because you have a lower
amount of estrogen in your system while you're taking an AI. It's
sort of like when you see older women who have thinning hair ... it's
because their estrogen levels are very low. I'm a bit surprised that
you would notice it in only 3 weeks.
