Hair loss: can it be related to my Cipralex and Trazodone?

Question

I have been taking 15 mg of Cipralex and 25 mg of Trazodone since August. In December I started to lose my hair. I had blood tests for thyroid and anemia but the results of the tests are normal. What do you think? Also my scalp has been itching for a week. Do you have a shampoo to recommend?

Hair loss in women is less common than in men over the age of 50. The causes of your hair loss can be multiple. Anxiety and nutrition are known to increase hair loss. No pharmacological treatment is usually used for women! Thank you, M.G.
