Does creatine cause hair loss?

I've just started going to the gym seriously, aur mere trainer ne creatine recommend kiya hai for muscle building. But I've heard from some friends that it can cause hair loss. Is this true?

Since vegetarians don't get creatine from meat, taking a supplement can help with workout energy. But instead of high doses, you can focus on a protein-rich vegetarian diet with paneer, sprouts, and nuts. Keep your creatine dose minimal to avoid any worry.

Hair loss can be due to many reasons like stress, water quality, or genetics. If you notice sudden hair fall after starting creatine, it is better to get a proper scalp checkup from a dermatologist to be absolutely sure about the cause.

Don't worry, there is no solid scientific proof that creatine causes hair loss. Most people use it safely without any issues.

Beta, aajkal ke bache body banane ke chakkar me mehnge powder khate hain aur phir pareshan hote hain. Subah bhige hue badam khao aur sar par amla-shikakai lagao, baal kabhi nahi jhadenge. Yeh sab dawayi se door raho toh hi achha hai.
