This is a wonderful topic. Because of fibroids I have to watch the estrogen levels in birth control. My doctor recommended the diaphram She also warned me about those shots. A couple of her clients experienced hair loss and she seems to think it happens more with her black clients.

Also, stylist Barry Fletcher wrote a book a few years back called "Why are Black Women Losing their Hair?". I just purchased a copy maybe two months ago. I skimmed through it but have not read it. But it is very interesting. I believe he touched on certain methods of birth control [and other prescribed medications]and it's chemical effect on our hair texture. I will look through it tonight to be sure.
