Sophia Umansky, Kyle Richards and Mauricio Umansky‘s daughter, detailed the side effects she’s endured – including hair loss – after using a prescription weight loss medication.
The 25-year-old we’ve seen grow up on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills realized, “I’m gonna be bald in about a week.”
Sophia’s struggle:
“I started Mounjaro about four months ago, and I would say like maybe for the past three weeks to a month, I’ve noticed a dramatic hair loss situation,” she explained.
Though Sophia’s hair flowed to her shoulders for the clip, she shared a shocking image for her followers. “I’m just going to show you a quick little video of what my hair loss looks like, and this is every day.”
She proceeded to show clumps of hair around the drain and sticking to the walls of her shower, explaining that the reality is “a lot worse” than it looks. “And you’re not even seeing the half of it.”
She demonstrated that when she pulls her hand through her hair during the day, “piles” of hair come out.
Sophia, Medical Doctor Nepo Baby on the cause of her mid-twenties hair loss:
Sophia explained that she doesn’t think the extreme hair loss is a direct result of the medication. “I think it’s a direct result of rapid weight loss because of the medication, and not eating enough vitamins, protein, all that kind of stuff.”
She added that she’s been “putting an effort into” taking vitamins and eating protein to correct the problem. Sophia told her fans that to combat hair loss, she’s also using OMI hair growth peptides and has been taking collagen as well as Grüns vitamins.
