I get tiny tablets of 7500mg of Biotin from Puritans Pride online.

Am a little confused.. my doc prescribed Biotin for me but the tablets are just 10mg each? should it be much higher?

I just started using Biotin maybe 2 weeks ago and I really think I am starting to already notice some changes in my hair and nails. My nails are getting longer and feel harder and my hair seems to be growing. It's kjnda weird or just my imagination.

I have been on Biotin for almost two months now, they told me to start on 1000 mg, I started taking 5000 and I still am losing so much hair every day. Also, I had my surgery in June and I'm only down 37 lbs... Sheesh...

How much Protein are you getting in daily? If your intake is low that could explain the slow weight loss & excessive shedding.

I have increased my Protein, brought all my levels up (eg) Vitamins B12, Iron, etc...I'm so ready to get back out, but in single digit numbers, no thanks...snacking a bit more...good days, bad days....I need some suggestions!

How much Zinc? The vitiamin that my Dr. recommends has 75mg of Zinc. Is that enough? Off to the store to get me some Biotin

10mg equals 10,000mcg ... just found that out at the store. You are taking the highest possible.

Is there a liquid or chewable form of 10mg Biotin that any of you suggest?

Natrol makes some that dissolve in your mouth. I use those and I bought them at Amazon.< /p>

I have been taking hair skin and nail Vitamin from Vita4Life. They have worked great for me. Apart from containing Biotin it also contains MSM that really boost the Hair growth and helps in maintaining a healthy skin and nails. I have been taking them for over a year now and have really helped me in getting a healthy skin.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
