My hair has been shedding excessively for months now. I've been switching birth control pills and this is the cause for my shedding. But four months ago, I stopped Birth Control pills altogether, but my hair still was shedding. Now I decided to take birth control called Ovcon (Estrogen and Norethidrone) My hair is now coming out by the handfull, but my acne is clearing. If Norethidrone is androgenic, shouldn't I be breaking out even more? Can Norethidrone be the cause of this and is it high or low in androgenity?

One of the side effects of Norethindrone is hair loss. It is actually a female hormone: progestrin which is similar to the progesterone that a female body produces naturally. It actually has some anabolic, estrogenic, and androgenic properties so it is probably low since it has "some".
You might want to notify your doctor about the hair loss expecially if you seem to be losing an unusual amount of hair or developing bald spots.

While genetics plays a role, there are other factors, including: hormonal imbalances, an underactive thyroid gland, nutrient deficiencies and insufficient scalp circulation.
