roni 711 6 Posted January 25, 2013 I've read a lot about those of you have lost hair, but I was wondering if there is anyone who has not lost hair? Or is it just impossible? Thanks! 1 ckunes reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ckunes 23 Posted January 25, 2013 I haven't lost any hair. Just a little over 3 months post op. maybe it will come later? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PdxMan 4,292 Posted January 25, 2013 I think everyone is going to lose some hair to differing degrees. I started losing at the 6 month mark and it stopped at 9 months. 12 months out, you would have never known I had lost any hair. I was great with my Protein intake and took all my Vitamins, including Biotin. My calories were over 1,200 a day, Protein and carbs well over 100g per day. Should have had everything covered. I just think it is one of those things that happens to most WLS people. Why? Don't know for sure, but I do know that fat holds a lot of hormones and hair folicles are sensitive to hormone balance. Ask any woman who has been pregnant how their hair was. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Teri Barowsky Hooper 22 Posted January 25, 2013 I had a total hysterectomy in Aug 2012 and then the sleeve in Nov 2012. I should be losing hair from my first surgery but as of yet, there hasn't been any noticeable loss. I started taking my bariatric Vitamins BEFORE my surgeries so I could get used to them. I also use Aveda's Invati serum daily on my scalp to help prevent Hair loss. So far, so good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tryan 20 Posted January 25, 2013 I started losinf at 3 months. I'm at 5 months now and it seems to be less and less. Or at least thats the way it seems when I'm cleaning it out of the drain. When I started losing the hair, I increased my Protein. I usually get between 8o and 100 grams per day now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KarissaKhaos 170 Posted January 25, 2013 Almost the same story here. It's kind of gross when the hair runs down my body in the shower, ick. Hopefully it slows down soon, fortunately I have long thick hair so it's not noticeable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
