Coming off the pill and hair loss

Im new so I hope I’ve posted this to the right place!

I’m thinking of coming off the pill soon to ttc with my partner.
Recently I’ve been reading some awful things about coming off the pill, but the most worrying one is the hair shedding.

Has anyone experienced hair shedding when coming off the pill? If so how long did it last and was it noticeable?

I have thin hair already so would hate to lose anymore Sad

I don't have any advice I just didn't want to read and run.

I have a couple of friends who were on the pill and stopped it to TTC and never mentioned their hair.

Good luck on TTC.

Ahh thank you that has made me feel slightly better. I've posted this elsewhere to! I just want to get my body back to a natural cycle but I'm so scared to come off now because of the awful side effects. Wish I was told all this when I first went on it at 18!
