I was diagnosed with PBC in August 2023. Currently taking 1000mg of ursodiol daily.

I did when I started taking it but that has passed and I use more natural items to wahs and treat my hair and scalp. That has been helpful.

Mine did the first time I took it. I got off of it for a couple of years. Went back on in June and not having that problem. I started taking vitamins for hair and they seem to be working.

Thank you for your reply. I also am taking a supplement called Nourkrin along with vitamin D and K. Which vitamins do you take?
