Female Hair Loss After X-Rays

Question: “I’m a female and had about 30 x-rays this year… A few months later, I started to lose a lot of hair, with general thinning and patchy hair loss. My doctor doesn’t believe that the X-rays were the cause. A blood test didn’t show any reasons for hair loss, and it’s not a genetic thing…can you help me?”

Answer: “As far as I know, in concordance with your physician, X-rays do not cause hair loss. I would need to know more about the past year of your life regarding your health to make a proper diagnosis, though we can be sure it is not the X-rays. I would be happy to help if you’d like to get in touch.
