It is not a known side effect of glucosamine and chondrotin. However, it may be the cause. It's hard to say.

Yes-
I have done several trials with glucosamine/chondroitin and each resulted in dramatic hair loss. Since I haven't found anything that helps my joints function as well, I've decided to compromise and take small dose (750 mg) and live with some hair loss.
