My doctors nurse told me that SSRIs can trigger the male pattern baldness genes. Can they trigger your AGA genes? Is that true?. And can SSRI cause a receding hairline? I know it can trigger TE but it's rare. Can TE cause a receding hairline? I was on Prozac in 2014 when I was 17 and that's when my male baldness begin so I've been terrified to get on an SSRI again. Please answer all the questions. Thank you.
