Birth control is intended to be an effective way to help couples plan their lives by avoiding unwanted pregnancies. While most birth controls are generally safe, some are unfortunately not. In fact, some birth controls come with undesirable side effects, including hair loss.
Here's everything you need to know.
Can I Sue a Birth Control Company for Hair Loss?
When birth control companies sell their products, consumers expect them to be safe. Ask yourself: would you buy a product if you knew it would cause side effects such as hair loss?
Most women love to take care of their hair. For this reason, chances are they wouldn't buy a product knowing they risk losing their hair. Therefore, as a consumer, you expect the birth control company to inform you about what to expect from the product well in advance. This information will help you make informed decisions before purchasing the product.
Unfortunately, not every birth control manufacturer has this kind of integrity. Some are usually more focused on making profits than actually making their products safe for consumers.
It is important to note that product manufacturers have a duty to warn consumers about the dangers associated with their products. So if a birth control company fails to warn you about hair loss as a possible side effect of using its birth control products, you may have a case against them.
