vlp1968 83 Posted November 9, 2012 Hair loss is normal! When it happened to me- about 5 months post op I went to the dermatologist. He said it was from rapid weightloss- your body goes into kind of a shock. He assured me I wouldn't go bald. I was lucky to start with a thick head of hair. It should stop in a few months. Try not to worry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PattyGirl66 1,243 Posted November 9, 2012 Very normal! In fact I am 3 and half months out of surgery and my hair is now really starting to fall out. As you can see from my picture I have thin hair to begin with. I have been taking doses of Biotin gel cap pills daily and treating my hair with Paul Mitchell strong strength hair treatments so that my hair can stay strong, preventing more hair breakage. Every little bit helps, even if you don't believe. I am a woman and will do whatever it takes to slow down this process or try and prevent my hair from breaking off more than it has. You can find Biotin gel caps at any Walmart, CVS, GNC, Rite Aid, drug store, and grocery stores.... The gel caps are super super tiny! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
okiekatt 40 Posted November 9, 2012 They say It is very common to experience Hair loss after surgery, although they do not know if it’s the surgery itself or the anesthesia that causes it, but normally you will start noticing a loss 2 to 3 months after a surgery, they say as scary as it is, you will not go bald but in the 3-4 months it can get pretty thin, that after the 4th month new hair is coming in and that its just pushing the old hair out and this whole process can take up to a year to resolve. Which was exactly what happen to me I never took any additional Biotin just my standard gummy vitamins and morning Protein Powder coffee, sure is freakie after the bath Water has drained and the tub is covered.
