Hair growth after surgery?



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone

I am 2 months post op and my hair is growing like crazy! I know I keep hearing about Hair loss at around the 3 month mark but anyone experience excessive Hair growth before the hair loss?

I am thinking that it because I have been eating foods with nutrition now in oppose to my normal pre op food without nutrition. But I don't know. ..

You know I thought the same thing for my first few months then realized it was by I lost weight in shoulders and back so it was longer.

What you put into your body will effect what comes out, this includes hair and nails!

I say take it and run.

My hair fell out at a pretty decent rate for 3-5 months post and the regrowth was almost immediate and its soo much better!

My nails are finally long and strong as well.

Good luck to you

Talk about a win-win! Were you not a big Protein eater before surgery?

It is a win win. Only taking flinstone Vitamins. Didn't eat much Protein before surgery. Just a bunch of junk. I hope it last!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
