I just had to share this with everyone. I've been taking Zoloft(an antidepressant) for 4-5 years now, mostly for my PMS. I noticed within this time, my hair has drastically got thinner. I thought it was cause I didn't take care of my hair or my health. But I have read up on Zoloft and I've found out that this might be the cause of my hair loss. In fact I'm sure this is why my hair got thinner all of a sudden. The only thing I've added or changed in my diet is adding the Zoloft. I just wanted to inform any of you that might be on an antidepressant that it will cause hair loss. IF I knew this before I would of NEVER started this medication.

Most drugs have very zany side-effects, in particular weight gain. I've never heard of a drug that thins your hair but I believe you completely.
