Just wondering if anyone out there has experienced hair loss during interstitial cystitis flares? Could it be caused by my immune system going crazy due to a flare?

My uro told me that hair loss with elmiron is around the outer edge of your hair line and it's not a lot. If your loosing a lot of hair you might want to go talk to your doctor. Chelsey

I sometimes notice a lot of hair loss when I'm really stressed out, and IC can be so stressful!

I read somewhere that the hair loss is only in about 1% of those taking it. I've been on it 2 months and no side effects. I'm hoping it helps the IC. Linda
