Taking Nourkrin at time of conception

Hi, I'm not sure anyone will know the answer but I'll try anyway.

I'm taking Nourkrin to help prevent hair loss. I want to start a family but the product is not recommended for use during pregnancy due to lack of data. I want to keep taking the product until I actually conceive because as soon as I stop taking it my hair starts to fall out, but of course you don't know when conception will happen. Does anyone know if it's OK to take it for the first few weeks of pregnancy and then stop taking it as soon as you find out?

It contains an extract protein compound of marine origin, acerola cherry extract, (malpighia punicifolia),silica kieselguhr, horsetail extract (equistum arvense), dicalcium phosphate, microcrystallinecellulose, magnesium stearate, hydroxypropylmethylcellulose and fatty acids.

Thanks!

I don't have any idea. I would talk to your GP or pharmacist. I personally would not use it, it isn't worth the risk. Hair does tend to get much thicker during pregnancy as the normal shedding cycle is extended. However it does tend to all shed a excessively after delivery. Good luck
