Does tremfya cause hair loss?

A few months ago, I started Tremfya injections for my severe psoriasis. While my skin has improved, I'm noticing significant hair thinning lately, especially around my temples. Is hair loss a known side effect of this medication?

I have seen many new treatments come and go over the years, beta. Don't worry too much about hair loss with these modern biologic injections; they are very targeted. Just focus on your health and keep your mind happy.

Honestly, between my midnight insomnia and work stress, I am losing hair anyway, so I can't even tell if a medicine is doing it! But from what I know, hair fall isn't a common side effect of Tremfya. Just get some sleep and stop googling side effects at 2 AM.

My daughter is on Tremfya for her severe psoriasis and her skin has cleared up beautifully. She didn't experience any hair loss at all. Just ensure you give her a good protein-rich diet and keep the scalp clean to prevent any natural shedding.

As someone who manages chronic health issues, I always say look at the bigger picture. If Tremfya is helping your skin and joints, that is a huge win. Keep doing your routine blood tests and consult your specialist for any hair issues.

Instead of worrying about high-end side effects, just focus on basic hair care like using a mild coconut oil and eating a boiled egg daily. If the medicine is prescribed by a good doctor, trust them. No need to buy expensive anti-hairfall serums unnecessarily.

Psoriasis control karne ke liye ye injection achha hai, haan na. Hair loss normal stress se bhi hota hai, tablet se nahi. Don't take too much tension, everything will be fine.

I have been on Tremfya for almost a year now for my plaque psoriasis. Personally, I have not noticed any increase in hair fall or thinning. My hair thickness has remained exactly the same as before.
