Breast implants and hairloss

I was wondering if anyone here developed alopecia after they got breast implants? I have had what my doctors says is alopecia working on three years now. I noticed that my hair loss started about 3 to 4 months after I got my breast implants. Then it stopped. It started back about 5 months after that then stopped again. This continued for about a year then it started to fall out more then not. I have read some things saying that breast implants can sometimes cause hairloss. Does anyone else believe that this may be true? Thankyou so much for taking the time to read this, Hve a wonderful day!! Erin

What do you think that the trigger was for you? I think that mine screwed up my auto immune system. My entire health has gone down hill since I got them. Not just my hair, but my joints, I have lost so much weight since I got them, and lots of other things. Do you still have your implants? I got mine taken out to see if I can regain my entire health. One was leaking and there was gunk floating in them and black stuff inside them I have no clue what that is. I have talked to alot of women who got sick and lost there hair and they too have breast implants Some of them have fully recovered once they got them removed. I no longer have joint pain and I have only had them out for 2 months so I really hope that with time my hair will improve too. Do you have any other health issues? I was perfectly healthy before and my hair was fine before my implants. If so you might want to check out toxic breast implants .com
