When Does The Hair Loss Stop?



Recommended Posts

I had surgery in Dec and its been this last month I am noticing Hair loss. I have thick hair so I can afford to loss some but I hope it stops soon. I am taking 10000 mg Biotin pills every day. I am getting my Protein in everyday. I know whenever you majorly change your diet it effects other parts of your body. I was just wondering what some other peoples thoughts were on hair loss!!!!

Also becareful of the type of Protein you are getting. Make sure it is a good quality or your body may not absorb it well enough resulting in hair loss.

I heard injury is one of the best for Protein absorption.

Unjury is an extremely good one and my personal favorite. I ike to take the unflavored and add it to everything including every bottle of Water I have I add half a scoop of unflavored unjury plus my packet of sug free crystal light.

Dr Laura Machado says that it takes 3 months for the loss of Protein to show up in Hair loss. I started to lose hair also, I now drink a 42gram EAS Protein Drink a day, half in the morning, half in the afternoon. Hair loss has stopped. Hope you find your solution.

So when your doc says three months does that mean 3 months without me not getting enough protein? Or just three months after surgery?

I started losing mine 3 months ago. It's started 2 months after surgery. I drink body fortress I dunno If it's any good but I also have never heard someone say that the quality of Protein depends on what your body will absorb. I have a doc appoint tomorrow and will ask that question. I have lost a lot of hair and M very nervous also because it's been 3 months and hasnt slowed down any. Hope it gets better soon

I'm so scared. This is what scares me more than the other risks. I have thin hair already and don't want it to happen ugh. I'm gonna have to see what happens then.

I had surgery in December too and my hair has been coming out for about a month now. I don't have a lot of hair so I'm starting to get a little worried. It has slowed down, but the hair is still coming out. I'm trying to stay on top of my Protein I take and I've been taking Biotin since January. It makes me feel better to know I'm not alone, but I just wish I knew what was going to happen to my hair.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
