HELP!....HAIR LOSS !

[mbsm1979 1]

It's been almost 5 months from my surgery and so far I've lost 65 lbs I could've lost more but I have a medical condition that doesn't allow me to move around (like walk or exercise) in which I will soon be taking care of with another surgery that I need. All these medical problems have me stressed out and kinda down but now that I've lost way over half of my hair I feel more depress!!! I've been taking my Vitamins but I want to know what else can I take so my hair can grow back!

I'm considering roggaine too

There is nothing you can do about it. Don't waste your money on supplements.

Its a normal reaction to trauma, mine was during months 3-5. It lasted about 6 weeks and I did not lose all my hair. You will probably never read a post that says, I am bald. So just let it do it's thing. I will begin to grow. I'll bet my life that you have regrowth. It does come back better and stronger because your diet ( I hope) is better now, Good in good out

Thank you!.... I'm to the point that I don't even want to brush my hair cause I'm scare!!!!!! This is how much falls off every say

Try taking double of your Vitamins or vitamins for pregnancy. Also is very expensive but sky mall has something for Hair loss maybe you can find it on eBay for cheaper. I wish I knew the name start with sky mall.(it will give the description) but honestly I don't know how much you lost but it's all temporary and will grow back once you start eating more. This is a cliché but remember Protein protein protein!

Are you getting at least 80 grams of Protein a day? My NUT warned us that unless we take our Vitamins AND our protein we will experience a lot of Hair loss.< /p>

I haven't really been taking my Vitamins and I haven't been eating much

I know , I know ... It's my fault but I've been really sick and been in and out of the hospital for like 7 months I was in a coma for a month 2 months BEFORE my gastric sleeve!...

I almost died

By the way, I've lost 65lbs ever since the surgery day (10/15/13) BUT since I was on a diet 2 months before surgery I've lost a total of 99 lbs

Ms24: is this what you're talking about?

It doesn’t matter if you are getting all your Protein and Vitamins it just happens it’s a known fact of rapid weightloss.
I could fill cups with all my hair that come out every time it does stop its depressing but it does stop!

Many people who begin losing their hair after WLS are advised to tank a zinc supplement! Talk to your surgeons office and get their opinion! Don't double up on Vitamins or anything without their approval!

I just watched a show where they has a doctor on who specializes in hair loss... She said that the amount of Protein that one takes in DOES INDEED matter. My doc said the same thing. Some people say Biotin works and some don't but he said it does help as well as zinc.

Thanks for that info! Had surgery Tuesday and am so nervous about Hair loss. I've been doing good with liquids!

[mbsm1979 1]

What's that blue liquid

[millergirl314 168]

That blue liquid is called Isopure. They sell them usually at the Vitamin stores. I actually just go finished drinking mine. It's a Liquid Protein drink. I think there is 40grams Protein. It's a nice change not having the normal (creamy) Protein Drinks lol.

Thanks for posting this!! I'm super worried about Hair loss and I've been told that protein is the key to keep from losing as much.
