Hair Loss Finish Line?



Recommended Posts

I am nearly 11 months out and had significant Hair loss from about 3 months on. It has just started to slow down and is almost back to pre-surgery losses over the past couple of weeks. I have to add that I have had extremes in my thryroid levels during this time, which could be to blame for some of the hair loss. I do not have my thyroid gland so I have had a hard time keeping my levels correct during weight loss.

I started losing hair significantly in month four. It was noticeably thinner, courser and drier by month six, but no bald spots. The loss slowed by month seven, and at 11 months I am halfway back to my old thickness, still very dry. I take a Multivitamin, B12, and Iron.

Btw, it was way worse than post partum.

Ok I'm day four n I thought I had no Hair loss but just now I was playing with my hair n about ten or so strands came out at once in hand :0( from underneath. I hope it does not progress. I think it's stress of surgery that's all (I hope).

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
