CCBSTX 0 Posted February 20, 2006 qqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqCan you guys clarify what Biotin is? Is it a pill, or a topical thing you put on your hair? I'm 7 months out and I've been losing hair for about 4 weeks now. I'm just about ready to cut it all off, and it has me really bummed. I get plenty of Protein and fat, and I've been under anesthesia many times and never lost hair, so I'm at a loss as to why I'm losing it all of the sudden. I just had my thyroid tested too, and it's fine. The hormone thing makes the most sense. I guess the reason doesn't really matter, I just want it to stop! Thinking of going chin length and blonde... DH is gonna kill me. Biotin is a B Vitamin supplement. Mine is in a very small pill. Shawn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hopes place 0 Posted April 16, 2006 This doesn't solve the problem from the inside but after chemotherapy my hair grew back very very thin. There is a product that I use from Spencer Forrest on the internet that has a product called hair fibers. It comes in lots of colors and you sprinkle a small amount on your thin spots and voila you can't see your scalp anymore. I think this product is the most important thing I put on everyday, even more than my makeup.... Wow, it would be a cruel act of fate if I lose more hair after being banded (3-31-06). I will think positive though and keep using my Spencer Forrest product. Hope this helps alittle. P. Sijansky Banded: 3-31/06 Dr. Spiegel - Houston Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
