Does retin-a cause hair loss? I am 50 years old and have a been experiencing hair loss for an undetermined amount of time.

Asked By:Bolitho124 in San Diego, CA

The hair loss is more than likely from a combination of genetics, chronic stress, and history of Depo-Provera/morena IUD and more recently lo- loestrin birth control pill used to treat chronic migraine headaches . I would like to use Retin-A and vitamin C over my entire face neck and chest area to combat fine lines and sunspots, But I am concerned about the potential side effect of hair loss. Any advice?
