Hi, I know some medications can cause unwanted hair growth as a side effect I was wondering if SSRI’s were one of them? Thanks.

Yes, indeed some SSRI’s can cause hair to stimulate.

SSRI’s stand for selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). They are antidepressant medications. Prozac is a drug many people are familiar.
