A member asked:

After an abortion if you dye your hair will this result in hair loss?

No: If you get hair loss after an abortion it may be due to the stress of having it. I am assuming you did not have excessive blood loss. This usually happens 3 months after the abortion. No relation to hair dye whatsoever.
