I need the real 4-1-1 on you guessed it: CIGARS! Does an occasional cigar (1 per week) cause hair loss?

Asked By:CitizenKane in Amherst, NH

OK - I have whittled away at all my vices my one guilty pleasure in life is the OCCASIONAL cigar (I had a FUE and scar revision on 6/19/17) now I realize no doctor in his or her right mind wants to say, on-line no less "Sure go ahead and smoke cigars!" But I'm hoping that we can drop the PC and i can find out in black and white terms - does an occasional cigar (1 per week) cause hair loss, I realize it can cause oral cancer and other cancers but does it cause hair to fall out of one's head? Thx!
