My hair has become very thin. I noticed the part in my hair seemed to be getting wider and more noticeable and my hair was flatter. Did some research and discovered this is seen in PD. But my hair, which has always been straight as a poker, has developed a wave and is curling. I’m 63 years old and my hair is finally curly. Lol!

Nice, one problem I haven't had to cope with Which is a good thing. I don't have much hair to begin with. I didn't have her till I was 3 years old. Ello L. That and. Freezing. I never had freezing gate. So far, knock on wood. I know my mom. She's actually my stepmother. Has been bald. She had bald spots. Since she was 25. Hers is a hormone related.

Keep head cool...no hats etc....take biaten capsules

If you notice hair thinning, you should be aware that there are other possible causes besides Parkinson medications.

1. Nutrient deficiencies: extreme deficiencies of biotin, pantothenic acid, iron , and/or zinc can result in hair loss. Malnutrition, and lack of protein can also be causes.

2. Stress and/or genetics

3. Medications (the following is a partial list of other medications that, rarely, can lead to alopecia):

Parkinson medications:
Levodopa (Sinemet, Madopar, Dopar, Larodopa, Syndopa, etc.)
Agonists (pergolide, pramipexole, ropinerole, bromocriptine
Amantadine ? possibly
Other medications:
Cholesterol-lowering drugs – clofibrate, gemfibrozil
Ulcer drugs – cimetidine, ranitidine, famotidine
Anticoagulents – warfarin, heparin
Antigout medications – Allopurinol
Antiarthritics – auranofin, indomethacin, naproxen, sulindac, methotrexate
Antihypertensive – lisinopril; Beta blocker drugs – atenolol, metoprolol, nadolol, propranolol, timolol
Drugs derived from vitamin-A – isotretinoin, etretinate
Anticonvulsants – trimethadione
Antidepressants – tricyclics, amphetamines; bupropion, selegeline
Antithyroid agents – carbimazole, Iodine, thiocyanate, thiouracil
Also – blood thinners, male hormones (anabolic steroids)
If you, or someone you know, has noticed hair thinning, consider the above possibilities. Having more than one of the conditions increases the likelihood of hair loss; for example, thyroid disease, stress, low serum iron levels, and use of one or more of the above listed medications makes it more likely that hair loss could occur.

Can alopecia be treated?

Most cases of hair loss can be reversed. However, treatment for alopecia will depend on its cause; for this, you should see a dermatologist, who can determine why the hair thinning has occurred and can recommend the appropriate treatment

I use Carbidopa/Levadopa and Neupro, but haven’t had any hair loss.
