Ok so my hair is fallllllling out, which I knew would! Luckily I have super thick hair. It's still disturbing. So why is it only hair on my head that I'm shedding! Leg hair would be awesome right about now!

Mine is falling out too! I think I might make one of those hair babies people have been posting! You must check them out! They are hilarious! I have started taking Biotin which is supposed to be great for hair and nails although I am not sure of the max dose I can take. I've seen conflicting posts. I'll have to research it more! Good luck!

my hair is too falling out.. ive been taking Biotin since before the surgery..and since it started to fall out.. I doubled my biotin..taking 20,000 mcg now..and it has slowed up some.. so about a month.. then its slowing.. so im happy bout that.. I have very long hair down to my butt.. so I was highly disturbed.. but its all worth it.. :)

Yes, it is a pill..very small (well, at least, what I buy at Walmart is small) - no need for crushing.

I dread when this hits me...I am just over a month out...I, too, have the hair to the butt...

I haven't lost any hair and am 7 months out. I rarely remember to take my Vitamins but I do eat a lot of Atkins bars (at least 1 per day) and I have used Keranique from time to time on my hair. You are supposed to use it twice a day, I use it a couple times a week. Not sure if those are relative...
