I shed hair horrifically on metformin (long before pg, met never made me O, what a joke).

While pg, I stopped shedding hair. From weeks 8-12 I shed mildly (I had girl baby). Then it grew in, and grew back in spots that had been bald for years!

4 months postpartum I shed BADLY and diffusely. I clogged the drain 6 times in 3 months--with the haircatcher on it! I finally stopped shedding. I think I still have some hair in the pre-pg areas (male pattern) but it's not as thick as when pg.

And when I was pg, my hair grew slow as a snail.

Never wrestle with a pig. You both get dirty, and the pig likes it.
