Hi, i am a 21 year old female who started experiencing hair loss nearly a year ago after stopping Diane 35 which i took for irregular periods.I did notice my mid part was widening and it is important to note that mom has suffered from hair loss. In March 2017 i started LoLo 10mcg/1mg and noticed my hair thinning and shedding which made me stop the ocp and i still lose 75 strands in the shower.I have excess facial and body hair along with being overweight while suffering with anxiety. please help
