I have a mechanical valve in my heart so therefore I have to take warfarin for the rest of my life. I am losing a lot of hair. And I'm wondering if there's any medication out there I can take along with my warfarin that will help me stop losing my hair?
Is there a medication that I can take along with my warfarin that will help stop my hair loss?
