How long have you been on the cymbalta? You may need to increase it or switch to another ad. In my situation, cymbalta did nothing for my depression. Effexor is an excellent ad. Have you tried it? The hair loss is from the lamictal. I recently decreased my dose of lamictal from 200mg to 100mg. I started to take klonopin again and I frankly don't care about the addiction claim. I had no problem weining off of it years ago. You are on many multiple meds and it can be hard to pinpoint the culprit. Less is best. When you take more than 3 meds, your bound to get unwanted side effects drug interactions. I wouldn't mess with taking hormones when your bipolar. This can exacerbate your mood cycling. You ad should be helping with this.
