Comment “BLOG” if you’re on Mounjaro, Ozempic, or Wegovy and you’re noticing more hair shedding, a thinner ponytail, or a widening parting.
Hair loss isn’t officially listed as a side effect of these GLP-1 injections — but it’s one of the most common concerns I hear in clinic. And it’s rarely just about the medication.
Weight loss injections can trigger hair shedding due to rapid internal shifts: stress on the body, nutrient depletion, hormonal disruption, and more.
I’m Ruth Collis AIT, a Consultant Trichologist and PRP Hair Loss Specialist based in Haywards Heath, West Sussex. I help women and men experiencing hair thinning, excessive shedding, or reduced growth after weight loss injections, postnatal recovery, perimenopause, or chronic stress.
My approach blends clinical trichology with emotional support and evidence-based strategies, so you can stop worrying every time you wash your hair, tie your ponytail, or check the mirror. Together we’ll uncover whether it’s telogen effluvium, nutritional deficiency, hormonal disruption, or early-stage pattern hair loss — and create a personalised plan to support long-term recovery.
