hair loss after methotrexate?

Question

Has anyone noticed increased hair loss after having methotrexate? I had the shots twice, 8/26 & 9/2. It's been several weeks but I also changed my hair color to a darker hue so my thin hair is more noticeable. I know that was a side effect and wondered if anyone has experienced this?

Also........ I've always had professional hair color done and i never had to clean the drain/sink area/comb as much as I do now - so I don't think it has to do with that. And I feel like I see more of my scalp in different areas than before. Just worries me :(

Answer

I can't speak to the medication, but after each of my losses I had a lot of hair loss too. I think it was changing hormones.

Hair loss makes sense to me. This. Drug is toxic to all vital organs and is usually used as a drug to slow down different leukemia's. I would asume that hair loss is a normal side effect but will get better within the next three months. 
This drug is potent and will still be on your system 12 weeks post your last injection which is why you need to wait 12 weeks to start trying to have another baby. Otherwise your child will have deformities.
