BBdoodle 483 Posted October 18, 2012 Are you getting your daily Protein in? That is the #1 reason why you loose your hair after surgery. I have MIMIMUM 64 grams of protein a day. I try to get 90 but no less than 64 gr. I am 6 months post op and everything is good with my hair. I also take Biotin.< /p> 1 punk.rock.mama reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've been getting treated for hypothyroidism, and now I have much less Hair loss, but it's growing in at different speeds. It's ugly. So my surgery is Tuesday, and I'm afraid I'll need to shave my head. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
