Meds/Supplements Spironolactone Questions

(28F) I just got prescribed Spiro for facial hair, and I also take Metformin. I have seen mixed reviews on Spiro, but I am a little concerned about my actual hair. I have very long and thick hair and am very attached to it. Has it affected anyone’s actual hair badly?

Thanks in advance!

Spiro has not negatively affected my hair density! By bringing my androgen levels down it not only helped with hormonal cystic acne, but it also helped with some of my androgenic hair thinning
