Hair Loss

Hi, has anyone taking Tecfidera noticed increased hair loss when washing or brushing their hair? :-)

@CurlyClaire , some Disease Modifying Treatments do have this side effect. In fact a Google search of "Tecfidera and Hair Loss" shows that you're definitely not alone. The following topic may be of some use to you :- https://shift.ms/topic/hair-loss/

@Stumbler I knew it was a possible side effect but being blessed with masses of thick curly hair I didn't think much of it. Then over the last month I've been losing a large amount each time I wash my hair! Tecfidera can be the only answer no other changes. Just wanted to see how others have got on and if there is anything that can help. Thank you for the link some really useful stuff on there! As always nice to know you're not alone and grateful for your support! :-)
