I Had My Wisdom Teeth Removed, Now I See Hair Loss!

Hi Doc,
Im 24 and have seen my very thick had of hair become very depleted and thin in the past month- six weeks. It seems very strange that my hair would thin so quickly, largely in the front and the temples, but not reduced to those areas. Prior to noticing this hair loss I had my wisdom teeth removed, with complications forcing me to take percacet and T3 as painkillers as well as an antibiotic. Could these be linked to my hair loss? How can i reverse these effects?

I have seen the hair loss process start (or become more noticeable) after a major surgery, but most of the time, it can also be coincidence. I doubt that a wisdom teeth extraction or T3 painkillers would cause hair loss, but possibly the stress involved precipitated the hair loss you were destined to have somewhere down the road? I couldn’t say for sure.
