does spironolactone cause fatigue
Spironolactone fits (blocks) your testosterone receptor, which is why itâs used, but unfortunately, it also disrupts ovulation, estrogen metabolism and adrenal function. The drug causes loss of libido, menstrual irregularity, and breast pain. It has been linked with breast cysts, and possibly breast cancer. By interfering with your hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, spironolactone causes low blood pressure, headaches, fatigue, and depression. It increases the risk for blood clots. I know you want a fast, effective solution for your hair loss, but spironolactone is not it.
