Answer: I take tretinoin and have been doing so for 3 years I keep losing hair. That tells me that you should go back to your doctor and ask that doctor just what is going on with your head and your hair loss. This drug, used in combination with other drugs is used for hair loss treatment, but best get to your doctor who prescribed it and ask.
