I wish I could blame byetta for hair loss but i'm a 45 year old male, I had to give up long hair years ago now I wear hats in winter and shave my hair short which hides the grey too. Hair loss happens to women as well, if its noticeable just go with it ,women can look very sexy with short or no hair. It automatically projects personality and confidence which is very attractive.

You know what looks bad trying to cover it up by growing your hair longer. Hair loss can be just in your genes or from too much dying and bleaching. Don't stress about it, any negativity will be from people you don't want to know anyway.

Just be bold have fun and enjoy life, lets face it there are enough problems with diabetes any way if byetta is working keeping your blood sugar regulated then your avoiding having to use insulin or suffering complications like heart attacks, strokes, amputations and going blind.

Just remember attitude is everything.
What a great outlook!
NO! I'm thinking it is something else like stress or diet.
