Just wanted to leave my experience. I'm 30 and recently developed a quarter-sized bald spot on the back/side of my head. And also 3 small bald spots on my beard. I had a list of potential triggers but I have eliminated most of them and the only one left with what seems like a high probability is men's multi vitamins + cod liver oil pills I was taking. The two of them combined put me over the limit of what's recommended as maximum amount of vitamin A a person can take in one day, which is 10,000 IU. My men's vitamins had 10,000 in one serving alone, not including the cod liver oil pills I was taking which are also loaded with vitamin A. And this is not including my diet which was pretty damn good. Vitamin A toxicity involves hair loss and hair/skin issues. I have stopped this pills as of yesterday, I also have an appointment with a dermatologist tomorrow and will update this if I learn anything new. I really don't think there's a need for these pills unless a doctor confirms you are lacking in some fashion.
Hi Anybody saw positive results after stopping multivitamin?
Hi everyone , my boyfriend took an anti dht multivitamin and after 2 days he had bald spots on his beard ... we made some searches about anti dht multivitamins and we know they solve the problems of the prostate
I have also had the same .. I am defenetely sure that it is the multivitamins.. The contain too many ingredients that for some our system cant take in.. Alopecia cause is from reactions of the immune system.. I am very positive this is the cause.. What have you done to treat it?
I took a Mens prostate health vitamin, lots of zinc and lecithin and shortly after I had the same problems. I have bald spots all over my neck now and on my jaw line between my chin and sideburn area. I used to have a bushy chin strap beard and now I have a patchy *** beard and have to shave sideburns and all of my neck. I haven't realized the connection to the mens vitamins until I read this here, so there is definitely a trending issue here.
I have recently started taking men's 50+ vitamins, and just noticed a sudden bald patch in my beard. I didn't even think about it until I saw this post. I don't think its a coincidence. What is the solution? Should I stop taking those?
I guess some side effects may be there after taking multivitamins for curing alopecia disease. I have got similar problem what u have now. But fortunately i am fully cure by taking Calosol facial recovery cream. I guess u will be fully cure since this product have no side effects like cortisone cream have.

Hypervitaminisis-A can cause alopecia but then only massive doses at prolonged periods can induce it.The chances of small localized alopecia with therapeutic doses of vitamins looks unlikely to be the cause.
