Biotin Question



Recommended Posts

I just did a little research and couldnt find anything about abnormal Hair growth in other areas.

You may want to call a pharmicist(s) and ask their input.. ?

Personally - Ive only heard of it promoting scalp & nail growth. Wish I couldve been more helpful. :phanvan

LOL... in MY case it would be an unwanted beard! (not attractive for a female to wear) :)

Oh, and I thought it was a WONDERFUL question to ask - NOT a "silly" one. Just wish we had bigger - more experienced - responses.

I am a female taking Biotin for about a month. So far, no "weird" hairgrowth. I 've been trying to get my Protein intake up and take Biotin. So far, my excessive shedding has slowed but I am left with superfine hair. I suppose it will take 6 months to regain what I've lost...

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
