Felt super cute the other day! 😘 Loved the little bow on my head! What a cute way to hide my hair as it is growing back! Maybe it's time for me to get more bandeaus? What do you think? Cute or nah? #mikeychang #mikeylikesthed #fempowerstudios #alopeciaareataawareness #alopecianbeauty #fempowerment #alopeciaareata #telogeneffluvium #lvbandeau #nonbinarypride #genderqueerpride #transpride https://www.instagram.com/p/CFzpevAHJuL/?igshid=t9xu5jwa1o39

Can Zepbound Cause Hair Loss?

Hair loss is not listed as a common or direct side effect of Zepbound based on clinical experience. However, some users have reported hair thinning or shedding a few months into treatment.

The likely cause? Rapid weight loss, not the medication itself.

The Link Between Weight Loss and Hair Loss

Experiencing hair loss during weight loss—especially when it happens quickly—is actually quite common. This condition is called telogen effluvium, a temporary form of hair loss triggered by stress on the body.

Here are some possible reasons why hair loss may occur while using Zepbound:

1. Nutritional Deficiencies

Rapid weight loss can result in lower intake of essential nutrients like protein, iron, zinc, and biotin, which are vital for healthy hair growth.

2. Hormonal Imbalances

Quick changes in body weight can impact hormone levels, including thyroid function, which can influence hair health.

3. Physical Stress

Weight loss itself can be a stressor, causing hair follicles to shift into the shedding phase earlier than usual.

How Long Does It Last?

The good news is that this type of hair loss is usually temporary. Shedding often begins 2–3 months after significant weight loss starts and typically lasts for a few months. In most cases, hair regrows as your body adjusts.

How to Prevent or Minimize Hair Loss on Zepbound

If you're using Zepbound and worried about hair loss, here are steps you can take:

✔️ Eat a well-balanced, nutrient-rich diet Prioritize foods high in protein, iron, and vitamins that support hair growth.

✔️ Avoid overly restrictive dieting Let Zepbound support your goals while you nourish your body properly.

✔️ Consider supplements Ask your healthcare provider about taking a multivitamin or biotin if needed.

✔️ Manage your stress levels Mental and physical stress can both contribute to hair loss—try meditation, light exercise, or breathing techniques.

✔️ Consult a healthcare professional Persistent hair loss may point to other underlying issues, so professional advice is essential.

Final Thoughts

While Zepbound isn’t directly responsible for hair loss, the rapid weight loss it promotes can lead to temporary shedding in some individuals. This is usually due to nutritional deficiencies or the body’s stress response.

The best approach is to support your overall health—eat well, stay hydrated, manage stress, and get guidance from a healthcare provider when needed. With proper care, your hair typically grows back once your body adapts.

Thank you!!!

I wanted to shout out and say a wonderous thank you to everyone who has reached out over the hair loss post/request last week. (Thank you @watermelonlipstick​!!!) I really appreciate your positive thoughts and vibes and it really has helped me feel less alone. I’ve gathered the gumption to share a little more info to explain the situation under the cut.

My hair is fairly thin and has a tendency towards oiliness, and I would typically tease it around the roots so it didn't just lay flat against my head. This was what my hair looked like around a few weeks ago, no effort made (a random bare-bones makeup selfie):

I was originally keeping track of how much I was losing per day by cleaning out my brush and the shower and gathering what I could from clothes and stuffing it all in sandwich bags and dating them. Then clumps began falling out, landing on my shoulders:

And I could not keep it up. After a week, I had gathered 6 stuffed-full sandwich bags and I was afraid to even touch my head. I felt like I was going insane - everyone, including my doctor, was just shrugging it off as "a normal stress response." To add insult to injury, grey hairs started sprouting and my usually manageable dry scalp and dandruff kicked into overdrive.

This is it as of Friday.

And as of Sunday, I now have a scaly bald spot where is was previously thin in the first picture. Think Friar Tuck. It's like I have a thinned out mullet with a clump of long hair at the back of my head. There is no hair left behind my ears or on the base of my skull. My hair is obviously wet in the pictures, and while it is easier to cover spots with dry hair, it is still 2/3 of my hair gone in less than 3 weeks. 

I am running out of options for work - I work in an office where business casual is the dress code and where I meet with customers and am the face of an organization. Obviously a wig would be the best choice but wigs are expensive. I would honestly love to get it over with and just shave my whole damn head, but that doesn't help the spots that are already bare. I have been wearing a fake hairpiece and stretchy headbands, but I don't know how long I will realistically be able to keep it up with how weak the remaining hair is.

My doctor confirmed it was likely due to having COVID earlier in the year and that it is telogen effluvium, which is temporary hair loss caused by trauma (I had a 102+ degree temperature for about 4 days). The shedding indicates that my scalp is just letting go of old hair, and beginning all new growth. I understand that it is "just hair" and that it will grow back. I understand that it is not my fault. I understand that it is not all gone and that people with cancer have a harder time with it. I understand that it is just hair but it was my hair and now it's just gone.

I am just fucking sad. My hair made me feel feminine and very nearly pretty and it framed my face and softened my features. I think I am grieving it like I would a person, which is fucked up. I struggle with feeling shallow, but it has truly been a blow to my hard won self-esteem, and activated all the worst parts of my struggle with depression and self harm that have already been cranked to 11 by the pandemic. 

I really appreciate all the support that you all have sent my way, a total stranger, it has meant the world to me. If you have gotten this far into the post, then thank you for reading my venting into the void. I appreciate it. ❤
