Can Retin A, or any generic tretinoin cause hair loss?

Nahlat119
If Accutane can cause hair loss, since both Retin a and Accutane are form of vitamin A, then is there a chance that Retin a can cause hair loss? I did not know it was possible until I read it somewhere online where couple of people discussed that it was causing them hair loss. Thank you for your answers.
