Hey guys. I started ortho tri-cylen lo this month. I'm on day 15 of the pills. Ever since I started taking the pills, i've noticed my hair has been falling out really badly. I can actually feel my hair getting thinner and there's just hair everywhere...My bed, the shower, etc. Anyway, I noticed that "loss of scalp hair" is a possible side effect of the pill. I'm going to call my doctor in the morning and hope that I hear that it will stop once my body gets used to the hormones and I can continue to stay on birth control. My question is...Has this happened to anyone else?
