Can saline breast implants really cause hair loss?! (Breast Implants & Hair Loss)

posted by txwmn, 12.02.2007, 08:07

» I'm wondering if any of you women could have a hormonal hair loss. I have
» a hormone problem concerning androgens, which your body can either make
» too much of or the receptors in the skin are too sensitive to the normal
» levels.

There's another possibility. Adrenal fatigue. I would recommend you check this out as a possible cause of your hair loss.

There is also some interesting data out there on levels of stress hormone and depression in women with augmented breasts.

I am "cosmetically enhanced" myself and have had saline implants since July 2000. I've been having problems sleeping and have been experiencing hair loss over the last ~2 years. There's always a possibility that the body is reacting to the presence of a foreign body, but in my case I believe this whole mess is from elevated levels of cortisol (stress hormone). Stress and cortisol can no doubt form a catch-22. Insomnia, chronic fatigue, hair loss and mid section weight gain are all possible symptoms. I am scheduled for re-aug surgery next week, as one of my implants was ruptured during my most recent mammogram.
