National Kidney Foundation Forums : transAction Council : New Transplant Recipients : hair loss from prograf I am a 34 year old female that had a kidney/pancreas transplant in August, 2007. I have been on prograf, and have been suffering from rapid hair loss. Has anyone out there had this problem and what have you done about it? I haven't had the hair loss side effect, but other people on the boards have said they did, and that the loss was temporary. Mention it to your doctor, because maybe they can do tests to determine if it is Prograf or malfunction of the thyroid -- either over or under operation of the thyroid can cause hair loss. There are long-standing treatments available for the thyroid problems.hair apparentANDREA EISENMAN I was very frustrated with what was happening to my appearance.
