I don't know if it's your case or not since you just mentioned the birth control as the source of the problem, but if you have a history of hair loss in your family you can also do pre-emptive treatments. And like I said go to a dermatologist, and ask for a stimulating hair growth product that will help. I would also get blood work done just to be sure it's not something else causing this.

It's from Ducray (which is the big hair specialist for people that have problems and is only sold in pharmcies). It's called Neoptide and it's done by Ducray (which like I said are dermatological labotories so they specialize in hair conditions). It's a kit of 3 bottles. The treatment is 3 months (1 bottle by month) and it's very efficient. It's for chronic hair loss, and you do one or two rounds per year. It curbs the hair loss and stimulates hair growth.

Below is a list of birth control pills ranging from lowest androgen index to highest: Desogen, Ortho-Cept, Ortho-Cyclen, Ortho Tri-Cyclen, Micronor, Nor-Q D, Ovcon-35, Brevicon/Modicon, Ortho Norvum 7/7/7, Ortho Novum 10-11, Tri-Norinyl, Norinyl and Ortho 1/35, Demulen 1/35, Triphasil/Tri-Levien, Nordette, Lo/Ovral, Ovrette, Ovral, Loestrin1/20, Loestrin 1.5/30.
