A statement from the German National Paralympic Committee said Ahmet Coskun had tested positive for finasteride, a drug used to treat hair loss but which can also mask other banned substances, after a pre-competition urine test on Aug 23.

“I was thinking about my hair and had no idea that the drug contained a banned substance. I’m very upset. I never intended to do doping,” Coskun said.

German chef de mission Karl Quade expressed regret at the news. “We take the issue of anti-doping very seriously. We’ve been carrying out an intensive anti-doping campaign for years in cooperation with NADA (the German anti-doping agency),” he said in a statement.

Coskun, 33, who played for Germany in three of their pool matches but not in Wednesday’s 73-63 win over Iran, will return home soon, German paralympic chiefs said.

Coskun was the second athlete to have tested positive at the Games. Pakistani powerlifter Naveed Ahmed Butt, 37, tested positive for the steroid methandienone metabolites on Sept 4, two days before the opening ceremony.

FEMALE HAIR LOSS: WHAT THE PATIENTS SAY

09.09.2008 in HAIR LOSS CLINIC REVIEWED, TRICHOLOGIST

Dear Gary,

Thank you for your email which I received yesterday. I am pleased to tell you that the treatment I had with you has worked very well and my hair is still growing as it should. I have experienced no adverse effects or problems so feel an appointment would be unnecessary. However, if I did ever experience problems again I hope that I would be able to come back and see you.
Kind regards,

Yours sincerely,
Julie Hedger
