I'am on paxil and I'm experiencing severe hair loss also at small doses.I think that more or less SSris cause hair loss in the same way because of the same class.
However It seems that fluvoxamine can be a little less aggressive on our hairs.How long have you been on luvox? only thinning or hair loss too?

Just losing more strands of hair but I use a blow dryer which damages it. Don't think it's the luvox. Been on it years. I think mine is age related. And is their balding in your men of the family? That is genetic. Love Phillipa

No genetic, I had no problems before Ad, ando also they grow back when I stop them.
Did you try other SSri and had no hair loss?So you are not vulnerable to this side effect.
Anyway take a look at how many persons are fighting against AD hair loss induced.http://www.hairsite6.com/f337depress4/discfem337_toc.htm

No in my case it is stress, age, or damaged hair. Love Phillipa

So you are not vulnerable to this side effect.If so you would have lost hair with some SSri.
I should find someone who has lost hairs with some ssris (like prozac,paxil, zoloft, celexa) but not with Luvox.
This is the only way to ensure that luvox doesn't cause hair loss
