    Hi,
    Sometimes hair loss can be caused by medications we take. I've searched the information about Zolof side effects and here is what I found out:

    'Hair loss is a rare side effect of Zoloft. It occurs in between 1 in 100 and 1 in 1,000 people who take the medication. If you experience hair loss while taking Zoloft, talk with your healthcare provider. Depending on how severe the problem is, there are things that he or she may be able to do. If the hair loss is bothersome to you, your doctor may recommend adjusting the Zoloft dosage or trying another medicine for your condition.'

    So, before taking any hair loss medication consult your doctor about Zoloft and its possible side effect.

      I would suggest you talk to your doctor about this.
      Maybe if zolof is the cause he may have a alternative for you.
      Have a good day

          This is a right step, eighteen. We do not see how serious your condition is, but the doctor will be able to determine whether it is MPB or hair loss that is caused by certain factors. Good Luck!
